The University Grants Commission has made a new provision for it.

On the basis of this internship, the students will develop their skills as per market expectaBesides that, the students will have to work on community outreach after going to fields, and projects. Internship programmes can be run by working with business houses. Students of graduation and post graduation will have multiple choices of courses. More and more certificate courses and diploma courses have to be started so that students have more options.
The Education Ministry has made it clear that admission for undergraduate courses in Central universities will be done based on merit list of Common University Entrance Test (CUET).
It is believed that besides 45 central universities, over 60 state and private universities will also enrol students for undergraduate courses based on merit of CUET.
