Gujarat University introduces new courses

Gujarat university admission committee, on Saturday, announced four new courses of the integrated five-year programme. The courses included MSc in Actuarial Sciences, Data Sciences, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning and Applied Geology. Except for Applied Geology, the rest of the courses will be handled by the Maths department from the School of Sciences and students will have to pay Rs 37,600 per semester. Whereas for the Geology programme, the fees per semester are Rs 35,900.

The committee meeting was attended by nearly 500 representatives from various colleges and departments.

Colleges were instructed to do verification of all courses on their own. Taking a cue from the Admissions Committee for Professional Courses (ACPC), GU this year announced its admission process before class 12 results have been announced. The idea is to allow the students to apply in first year Bachelor courses like Commerce, Science, Arts,

Business Administration and Computer Application. The university intends to wrap up the admission process by June 15.
