CU first in state to allow dual degree courses
Kozhikode: Calicut University (CU) became the first university in Kerala to allow students to pursue two degree (UG/PG) programmes at the same time. The academic council approved the decision on Wednesday and formed a six-member committee to suggest how to implement the move. The committee includes Rasheed Ahmed as academic convener, along with PP Pradyumnan, K Pradeep Kumar, P Sushanth, T Muhammed Saleem and Sabu T Thomas. The decision follows a UGC notification on June 5, 2025, which allows students to pursue two academic programmes simultaneously. Under UGC guidelines, students can take up two full-time programmes in physical mode if class timings do not clash. They can also choose one full-time physical programme along with another in distance/online mode. A third option allows students to pursue both programmes through distance or online mode, provided the institutions are approved by UGC or relevant statutory bodies. Syndicate member Rasheed Ahmed P, who proposed the initiative, said the move is intended to support students' diverse interests and talents. He said it will allow students to combine disciplines such as science, social science and humanities, helping them broaden their academic background and improve career prospects through a wider set of skills. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Free P2,000 GCash eGift UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo "We are planning to launch the programme this academic year. Though two full-time degrees may not be available this year, full-time students would be able to enroll for distance education courses once the order is issued," he added. Meanwhile, CU would have to draw up the modalities to ensure that exam dates won't clash. The academic council also decided not to approve the admission of a student who had joined a degree course at Oriental School of Hotel Management, Vythiri, Wayanad, without the mandatory Plus Two qualification. The syndicate has been asked to take action against the institution for granting this unauthorized admission in 2014–15. The council also discussed a 2011 case in which a student of BSc Electronics course submitted a forged certificate before passing the exam. The forgery was discovered when the certificate, created for job purposes, was submitted to CU for verification. The same student later passed the exam through revaluation and applied for the original degree certificate. The council recommended that the degree should not be awarded.
