 Some of the above mentioned components envisages followirrg
paradigmsr
. Multidisciplinarry, flexible and equitable education framework for flhe
holistic developrnent of learneis

' Emphasis on skill-based education, vocational education and

a pprentices h i p/i nterns h i p
o Encourag€ critical thinking, creativity and problem-solving skills
r Increase the Giross Enrolment Ratio (GER) in higher education to 50% by
2035
. Promotion of Indian languages, ort, culture and heritarge
' Emphasis on Multidisciplinary, Interdisciplinary, and Transdisciplinary
research to develop innovative solutions to overcome societal issues.
NEP 2020 advocates that a holistic and muttidisciplinary educatipn
would aim to develop all capacities of human beings -intellectual, aesthetic,
socia!, physical, emotional, and moral in an integrated manner. Such a
holistic education approaqh is necessarily required at under graduate levr-.l.
The 4-year multidisciplinary Bachelor's programme, however, shial!
be the preferred option since it allows the oppoftunity to experience the frull
range of holistic and multidisciplinary education in addition to a focus on
the chosen major and minors as per the
clroices of the student. The holistic four year under graduate education with
multiple entry and exit provisions will help in matching of the
undergradtlate education to international standards and will facilitate the
student mobility for higher studies, research and employability across the
globe.
On the erbove mentioned premise, two of our leading State
Universities nantely Kurukshetra University and MDU Rohtak have drafted
Curriculum and Credit framework for implementation at University and
college levrel barsed on the recommendations of a centralised committee.
Report of the rlentralised Committee is enclosed herewith. This is
a
comprehensive document prepared by a pool of academics from
U,piversitres and Colleges.
