Multiple Entry and Exit in Bachelor Programmes
National Education Policy (NEP)
Background
The aim of Higher Education is to develop good, well rounded and creative
individuals. The present education system requires transformation and redesigning by
introducing innovations and by developing a „learner-centric‟ approach. There is a need to
allow flexibility in the education system so that students can choose inter-disciplinary, intra-
disciplinary and skill-based courses. It has to enable an individual to study one or more
specialized areas of interest at a deeper level, while at the same time building character,
ethical and constitutional value, intellectual curiosity, spirit of service and capabilities across
disciplines including sciences, social science, arts, humanities as well as professional,
technical and vocational crafts. Higher Education must uplift the nation which can construct
and implement solutions to its own problems. It is also to bridge the increasing gap between
an undergraduate degree and employability.
The National Education Policy developed by Ministry of Human Resource
Development (MHRD) Govt. of India has been approved by the Central cabinet on 28th July
2020. The National Education Policy (NEP) has brought several reforms in Indian education
which includes innovation and improvement in course-curricula, introduction of paradigm
shift in learning and teaching pedagogy, evaluation and education system.
Flexible learning is important to choose one‟s academic pathway leading to the award
of Certificate, Diploma and Degree. NEP 2020 will reduce the drop-out rate, improve Gross
Enrolment Ratio (GER), ensure zero-year-loss to students and facilitate lifelong learning.
NEP 2020 envisages adjustments in the structure and lengths of degree programmes and an
Academic Bank of Credits (ABC) to ensure seamless student mobility between or within
degree granting Higher Education Institutions (HEIs).
In pursuance of the recommendations of National Education Policy (NEP) 2020
seeking to reform the Higher Education system, the University is introducing Multiple Entry
and Exit in Academic Programmes from the Academic Session July 2021.
The programmes are structured in semester mode with multiple exit options with
Certification, Diploma and Basic Bachelor Degree at the completion of first, second and third
years respectively. The candidate who completes the four year Under Graduate Programme
either in one stretch or through multiple exits and re-entries would get a Bachelor degree with
Honors.
The students who exit with Certification, Diploma and Basic Bachelor Degree shall
be eligible to re-enter the programme at the exit level to complete the programme or to
complete next level. The candidates will have a maximum of two exit options or lateral
entries to complete theprogramme.
A few courses are common to all the students which contribute to the breadth of the
study.Students shall be given options to choose course from a basket of courses.

For systematic execution, this regulation will be applicable to students who have
taken admission in July 2021 session in the Under Graduate level (Bachelor) programmes
mentioned below:-
1. Bachelor of Science (Multimedia) – B.Sc. (MM) (Honors/Research)

Computation of SGPA and CGPA
The following procedure is prescribed to compute the Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) and
Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA):
1 The SGPA is the ratio of sum of the product of the number of credits with the grade points
scored by a student in all the courses taken by a student and the sum of the number of credits of
all the courses undergone by a student, i.e
SGPA (Si) =∑(Cix Gi) /∑Ci
WhereCi is the number of credits of the ith course and Gi is the grade point scored by the
student in the ith course.
2. The CGPA is also calculated in the same manner taking into account all the courses
undergone by a student over all the semesters of a programme, i.e.
CGPA = ∑(Ci x Si) / ∑ Ci
where Si is the SGPA of the ith semester and Ci is the total number of credits in that
semester.
3. The SGPA and CGPA shall be rounded off to 2 decimal points and reported in the transcripts.
