Human Resource Development Minister Kapil Sibal that said the new central universities should conduct a common entrance test for admissions, while having different courses from one another. The new central universities should look at conducting a common entrance test for admission to their courses, to enable common counselling so that students and their families are saved the trouble of going to various locations for tests and counselling. The central universities must become benchmarks for academic excellence in the rest of the country. The universities must have different courses, such that are in conformity with the eco-system of the region. Essentially, different universities specialising in different courses will encourage students to come to a particular university which will be associated with a particular course,’ Sibal said.
For this purpose, the University Grants Commission (UGC) has been asked to set up a panel to coordinate with universities, to ensure ‘there are fewer number of common courses’.
