New Delhi: Aiming to
make higher education more industry-centric, the All India Council
for Technical Education (AICTE) is now starting flexible dual
degree and integrated courses in management, Human Resource
Development Minister Kapil Sibal said Thursday.
A flexible management programme being offered by the AICTE after
class 12 will provide an undergraduate degree in three or four
years, followed by a masters degree in five years.
"A student can enroll in the course after 12th. At the completion
of three years, they will get a bachelors degree, after four years
they will get applied management credit and then they can join the
industry," AICTE Chairman S.S. Mantha said.
"After few years of work, students can do one more year and get a
masters degree in applied management," he said.
Entry in the course will be through a common entrance test at
first year. Students can also leave after three or four years, as
per their wish, and may rejoin when they want.
Another set of integrated courses being brought by the AICTE will
combine management with technical courses like engineering,
pharmacy, and architecture.
"Considering the demand of technology managers, it is proposed to
commence a five year dual degree programme and six months
internship," Mantha said.
"Students will not have to give CAT or MAT, they will spend one
year in college and six months in internship, after which they
will get the integrated management degree," he said.
Both courses, will start from this academic year (2012-13), Mantha
said.
