Rajiv Gandhi University to implement Academic Bank Credit System

Rajiv Gandhi University (RGU) is all geared up to implement the academic bank credit (ABC) system of the University Grants Commission (UGC). During a meeting with UGC Chairman Mamidala Jagadesh Kumar virtually, RGU vice chancellor Prof Saket Kushwaha said that the varsity will constitute a task force for the ABC, which will be headed by the senior-level officer of the university with members drawn from among the officers and faculty members who have the experience of dealing with admission, registration and examination matters.

The Vice-Chancellor further stated that "the ABC would be a game changer in transforming Indian education to a great extent. The inter-disciplinary and multi-disciplinary approach is the need of the hour. With the ABC, RGU will be able to help students learn subjects of their choice and become ‘skill-oriented’ graduates and it will be a new leap in the academic world."

"The initiative has the potential to internationalise India's higher education system as the regulation offers major promises, such as freedom and flexibility in the university degree-granting system, standardization within the Indian higher education system and robust integration of the Indian higher education system," the VC said.

ABC is a digital storehouse which holds all the information regarding the credits earned by the individual students throughout their learning journey in academic programmes in higher education.
