Christ University Bangalore loses autonomous tag by just .01 point
Academic circles in Bengaluru are agog over Christ (deemed to be university) not featuring in the list of higher education institutions from Karnataka that are set to get full autonomy.
The varsity’s website says it was one of the first institutions in India to be accredited by National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) in 1998 and subsequently in 2004, 2016.
Pro vice-chancellor of Christ (deemed to be university), Father Abraham VM, said the institution missed out on the autonomous status by just 0.01 point on the NAAC score.
University of Mysore, Jain University, Manipal Academy of Higher Education, KLE Academy of Higher Education and Research, Belagavi, and JSS Academy of Higher Education and Research, Mysuru, figure among the 62 higher education institutions chosen for granting of full autonomy.
Full autonomy enables these institutions to set up off-campus centres, research parks, new programmes, enter into collaborations, run distance-learning programmes and recruit foreign faculty among other privileges.
