New Delhi, Apr 3: The National Council for Educational Research and Training (NCERT) has been formally declared a deemed-to-be university empowering it to award its own degrees, officials said.
\n\u201cThe Ministry of Education, on the advice of the University Grants Commission (UGC), NCERT along with its six constituent units have been declared as deemed to be University under distinct category,\u201d an official notification said.
\nThese constituent units include regional institutes of education in Ajmer, Bhopal, Bhubaneswar, Mysuru and Shillong, along with the Pandit Sunderlal Sharma Central Institute of Vocational Education in Bhopal. As the apex organisation for school education, the NCERT undertakes various activities and programmes, including educational research and innovation, curriculum development and development of textual and teaching-learning materials.
\nThree years back, the Centre had approved granting the deemed-to-beuniversity status to NCERT in the \u2018De Novo\u2019 category. A De-Novo deemed university is an institution that can apply to the UGC for setting up a new institution as deemed-to-be-university, which will undertake study and research in unique and emerging areas of knowledge that are not offered by any existing institution.
\nThe notification has listed certain conditions with granting of the status. These conditions prevent the NCERT from indulging in any activities that are \u201ccommercial\u201d and \u201cprofit-making\u201d in nature, and mandate that all academic courses or programmes must conform to the norms and standards prescribed by the UGC and the statutory bodies or councils concerned. The notification also mandated the NCERT to start new programmes, offcampus or on offshore campuses, \u201conly in accordance with the norms and guidelines issued by the UGC, from time to time, on the subject\u201d.
\nCurrently, the graduate and post-graduate programmes offered by the NCERT\u2019s Regional Institute of Education (REI) are affiliated with local universities like Barkatullah University, Bhopal, M D S University, Ajmer, University of Mysuru, Utkal University, Bhubaneshwar and the North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong.
\nFurther, the Ministry has said that the NCERT shall take appropriate steps to begin research programmes, doctoral programmes and innovative academic programmes.
\nThe government has also mandated the NCERT to start participating in annual rankings of institutes issued by the National Institutional Ranking Framework and has asked it to \u201ccompulsorily\u201d create Academic Bank of Credits (ABC), identities of its students, and upload their credit scores in digital lockers that can be reflected in the ABC portal.<\/p>\n
