University Grants Commission Resolution (2004)
Fl-52/2000(CPP-II) '
The Registrar / Director
Of all the Indian Universities
(Deemed, State, Central Universities /
Institutions of National importance)
5 MAY 2004
Subject: Recognition of Degrees awarded by Open Universities.
Sir/Madam,
There are a number of open Universities in the country offering various degrees/diploma through the mode of non-formal education. The Open
Universities have been established in the country by an Act of Parliament or State Legislature in accordance with the provisions contained
in Section 2(f) of University Grants Commission Act, 1956. These universities are, therefore, empowered to award degrees in terms of
Section 22(1) of the UGC Act, 1956.
A circular was earlier issued vide UGC letter N.F.I-8/92(CPP) dated February, 1992 mentioning that the Certificate, Diplomas and Degrees
awarded by Indira Gandhi National Open University are to be treated equivalent to the corresponding awards of the Universities in the country.
Attention is further invited to UGC circular No.Fl-25/93(CPP-II) dated 28th July, 1993 (copy
enclosed) for recognition of degrees and diplomas as well as transfer of credit for courses successfully completed by learners between the
two types of universities so that the mobility of learners from Open University stream to traditional Universities is ensured without any
difficulty.
The UGC has specified the nomenclature of degrees under Section 22(3) of the UGC Act, 1956 to ensure mandatory requirements viz. minimum
essential academic inputs required for awarding such degrees. A copy of Gazette Notification regarding specification of degrees issued vides No.l52/97(CPP-II) dated 31st January 2004 is enclosed. The details are also given in UGC Web site: www.ugc.ac.in
May, I therefore request you to treat the Degrees / Diploma / Certificates awarded by the
Open Universities in conformity with the UGC notification on Specification of Degrees as
equivalent to the corresponding awards of the traditional Universities in the country.
Yours faithfully
(Dr. Mrs. Pankaj Mittal)
