Universiiesinstitutions may introduce Integrated and Dual Degree Programmes judiciously and with caution. A dual degree ‘programme combines more than one subject, mostly in a horizontal spread, whereas an Integrated Programme is progressive ‘and cumblative. The academic philosophy/rationale behind offering such integrated programmes should not be for ‘Sconomising on course requitements or award of double degrees in @ fast track; on the contrary, an integrated approach Should involve a verticalfinter-disciplinary discourse. A dual degree should aim for a better comprehension of the related Subjects of study from a multidimensional perspective. This would necessarily entail an equal, if not more, course duration fand a newer approsch of curticular transaction and additional interactive courses. Thus an Integrated/Dual Degree Programme combining two ot more disciplines shall be permissible only if there is no compromise on any of the course requirements, viz. duration, number of papers and intensity of courses, teaching/learning hours, credits, ete. Integrated and ‘Daal Degree Programmes are therefore, be introduced by the universitie institutions subject the following conditions: 2) The Integrated/Daal Degree Programmes must not dilute the standards as prescribed under the Regulations made by the UGC and other Statutory authorities concemed in terms of syllabi, programme duration and examination requirements b) If the Integrated/Dual Degree Programmes intend to offer two separate degrees with an option for an interim ‘exit or lateral entry, the duration of the Integrated/Dual Degree Programme must not be less than the duration ‘equal to the sum total of the prescribed duration of the two degrees that are being combined in the Integrated/Dual Degree Programme, Provided that all such programmes would carry the nomenclature of "Integrated/Dual Degree (name of the frst degree) - (name of the final degree)". Provided further that both the degrees awarded under the Integrated/Dual Degree programme shall be individually and separately recognised ‘a equivalent to corresponding degrees and not as one single integrated degree. ©) Ifthe Integrated Programme intends to offer a single degree without permission to exit and lateral entry, the ‘programme duration may be relaxed by not more than 20% of the sum total ofthe prescribed duration of the two degrees that are being combined to make the single Integrated degree.
