Preamble
For a while now, there's been a clear need to make sure that what students learn in higher
education matches up with what the job market needs. The University Grants Commission (UGC)
noticed this and started a plan to help students get skills they need for work or starting
their own businesses. This plan leads to a Bachelor of Vocation (B.Voc.) Degree. It offers
different paths, like getting a Diploma or Bachelor's Degree, all following the National
Skills Qualifications Framework (NSQF). The stuff students learn comes from what industries
want and mixes in other important things like personal skills. The main goals are to make
students well-rounded and ready for work or business.
The program aims to : Cultivating holistic personalities through human-centric learning,
teaching practical skills, and enncouraging students to start their own businesses.
