Justification for New Syllabus and Course M.Voc. (Medical Laboratory Technology)
1. Necessity of starting these courses:

Objectives for Starting M. Voc (Medical Laboratory Technology)
i. To provide vertical mobility to students coming out of Bachelor of Vocation (B. Voc )
Medical Laboratory Technology started from Academic Year 2014 onwards.
ii. To provide training from entry level jobs to entrepreneurship.
iii. To integrate National Skill Qualification Framework (NSQF) within the Post Graduate Level
of Higher Edu cation in order to enhance the employability of the Graduates and meet
Industry requirements . Such graduates are also expected to be equipped to become part of
global workforce.

2. Whether UGC has recommended to start the said courses?

Yes. With reference to Letter F. No. 1 -25/2018 (NSQF)/756 Dated: 30/07/2019, UGC conveyed
the approval to The Principal, Vikas College of Arts, Science & Commerce for offering M. Voc
(Medical Laboratory Technology) from academic year 2019 -20.

3. Whether all the courses have commenced from the academic year 2019 -20?

As Government Resolution for starting Skill Courses (4th March , 2020) , No Objection
Certificate from Joint Director of Higher Education Mumbai (17th August, 2020) and Affiliation
letter from University of Mumbai r eceived on 25th August , 2020, M. Voc (Medical Laboratory
Technology) course has been started from Academic Year 2020 -2021 .

4. The courses started by the University are self -financed, whether adequate number of
eligible permanent Faculties are available?

The M. Voc (Medical Laboratory Technology) is a self -financed new post graduation
programme, as UGC will not give grant – in – aid for B. Voc Colleges after startup grant. The
college have to recover the expenses incurred from student fees as per existing fees fixation
policy .
