Some college AICTE approved and some UGC approved what does it mean ?
Hi Rahul !
AICTE and UGC are the apex regulators in Indian education. They have indeed done a very good job of offering quality education to masses.
One of the main differences between AICTE and UGC, is that the former is exclusively formed for technical education.
While technical institutions are overlooked by the AICTE, the other universities and colleges fall under the UGC.
UGC approves universities in the country. It provides funds for affiliated universities and colleges. The AICTE is only a statutory body, which deals with co-ordinated development and proper planning of the technical education system in the country.
Another difference that can be seen is that the UGC is free to do whatever it likes, but AICTE is not free from the intervention of the Human Resources Development Ministry.
Hope this clears your doubt:)
