The 2 yrs. (Four Semester) Post Graduate Degree course M.A./M.Sc. in Geography and Environmental Studies Under
CHOICE BASED CREDIT SYSTEM (CBCS)
(The ordinance and the regulation of M.A./M.Sc. is adopted from common ordinance of Universities of Bihar from the Governor's secretariat, Bihar via Memo No. Estb. PREAMBLE: 40/2017-1457/GS(I), Dated- 29-05-2018)
The CBCS provides an opportunity for the students to choose courses from the prescribed list of courses comprising core, elective and ability enhancement courses. The courses can be evaluated following the grading system, which is considered to be better than the conventional marks system. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce uniform grading system in the entire higher education in India. This will benefit the students of universities of Bihar to move across institutions within India to begin with and across countries. The uniform grading system will also enable potential employers in assessing the performance of the candidates. The Universities shall follow the guidelines formulated by the UGC in order to bring uniformity in evaluation system and computation of the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) based on student's performance in examinations.
