IS IGNOU PROVIDE 4 YEAR DEGREE FOR UG HONS COURSES ACCORDING TO NEP 2020? OR JUST PROVIDE 3 YEAR DEGREE?
Hello,
Yes, IGNOU (Indira Gandhi National Open University) has introduced 4-year undergraduate (UG) degree programs in line with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 guidelines .
The NEP 2020 encourages flexibility in undergraduate programs, allowing students to opt for a 4-year UG degree with Honours or Research components. IGNOU has adapted its curriculum to provide this structure. Now, students can choose between a 3-year degree or a 4-year Honours degree. Here's how it generally works:
1. 3-Year UG Program: Students who want to complete a regular Bachelor's degree (like BA, BSc, BCom) can complete it in three years.
2. 4-Year UG Honours Program: Students opting for the 4-year program can pursue a Bachelor with Honours or Bachelor with Research if they wish to delve deeper into their field of study.
This provides flexibility for students to complete their degree at their own pace, in line with IGNOU's open and distance learning model.
Hope it helps !
