what is meant by autonomous collage
Hello Aspirant,
Autonomous colleges are affiliated to/recognized by any Government body or university but follow their own regulations/curriculum/syllabus/examination pattern/grade system for their academic courses instead of following the university's syllabus.
The quality of faculty and facilities (labs, classrooms etc.) play an important role in the quality of education. Autonomous colleges have flexibility in terms of curriculum design, delivery and assessment/ evaluation. It is Institution specific how to use autonomy for the betterment of student development.
