In line with NEP, UGC redesigns website to make it more user-friendly

In line with the National Education Policy (NEP), the University Grants Commission (UGC) has redesigned its website to make it more “user-friendly, informative and dynamic” as part of its effort to support universities and colleges to improve higher education standards into “world-class”.

All information is categorised as per the type of stakeholders — such as students, faculty, and universities. The home page covers key initiatives, students corner, faculty corner, and information about different types of universities, dashboards and e-governance portals of UGC initiatives and schemes. Stakeholders can easily access notices and circulars. Also, access regulations are according to the type of stakeholders.

Finding university details is very easy on this website, and it has more filter facilities for the users to sort the information as per their requirements.

Similarly, users can get details of the UGC’s various bureaus and contact information of the bureau head and other officials. UGC’s various digital initiatives are highlighted for direct access.

The UGC said it is making regulations and working as a facilitator to make higher education institutions impart quality education to create a skilful, innovative young generation.
