In a release, the registrar said several public enquiries were being held into the status of recognition of postgraduate/research degrees awarded by certain deemed universities. A few of them had embarked on offering PG/research programmes in engineering and technology based on curriculum and syllabi, which did not conform to standards prescribed for value addition and excellence by the Anna University/AICTE. Also, certain deemed universities, of late, had been admitting students in large numbers to a single discipline without possessing adequate infrastructure and staff requirements in the computer science and information technology branches at the PG level. Such programmes would "grossly fall short of the exposure needed for the award of PG/research degrees, compared to similar courses offered by the university, especially in the current curriculum in which one semester had to be devoted exclusively for project work, guided by a senior faculty member". So the Syndicate last month passed a resolution not to recognise such postgraduate programmes offered by the deemed universities.
