Preamble:
The four-year integrated programme aims at integrating general studies comprising
B.Sc. B.Ed . and professional studies comprising foundation of education and school
subjects and practicum related to the tasks and functions of a school teacher. It maintains
a balance between theory and practice and coherence and integration among the
components of the programme representing a wide knowledge base of a secondary
school teacher. The programme aims in preparing teachers for Upper Primary and
Secondary stages of education.
Duration:
The B.Sc. B.Ed. programme shall be of four academic years or eight semesters including
school based experiences and internship in teaching. Student teachers shall, however, be
permitted to complete the programme within a maximum period of six years from the
date of admission to the programme.

Page 5
Working days:
1. In a year there shall be at least two hundred and fifty working days including
the period of examination but excluding the admission.
2. A working day will be of minimum 5 -6 hours adding up to a minimum of 40 hours
per week. The institution shall ensure the availability of teachers and students for
consultation and mentoring – providing group or individual guidance.
3. The minimum attendance of student - teachers shall have to be 80% for all course
work and practicum and 90% for school internship.
4. 1 Credit equals to 12 hours
Intake
There shall be a basic unit of fifty (50) students. Initially two units may be permitted. The
University may prescribe distribution of students for different subjects.
Eligibility
Candidates with at least 50% marks in the senior secondary/ +2 or its equivalent are eligible
for admission.
Standard of Passing: 40%
Admission procedure:
1. Admission shall be mad on merit on the basis of marks obtained in the qualifying
examination and in the entrance examination or any other selection process as per the
policy of the Central / State Government/ University administration.
2. At the time of admission to the programme, the student will need to indicate their
selection of the subjects to be pursued for the discipline options and the accompanying
pedagogic specializations for which they are applying, and these may be assigned on
the basis of order of merit and availability.
The Professional Education Course (PEC) Component consists of the following.
1. Perspectives in Education (PE)
2. Curriculum an d Pedagogic Studies
3. Ability Enhancement Course (AEC)
4. Engagement with the Field/Practicum (FE)
School Internship
