Postgraduate degree certificates to have digital signature of Vice Chancellor
The Senate of the University of Calicut has approved an amendment to its laws to lift the limit of the amount of funds that can be handled by the Vice Chancellor, Registrar, and heads of various departments. According to sources, this was decided at a meeting on Thursday. It has also been decided to have digital signature of the Vice Chancellor on postgraduate degree certificates. The Senate membership of P. Abdul Hameed, MLA, was restored. His membership had been cancelled earlier because the MLA had failed to attend six consecutive Senate meetings. The authorities claimed that it could declare the results of the B.Ed course just 10 days after the exams were held. This would help the graduates apply for the high school assistant post in government schools before the last date for application, Vice Chancellor M.K. Jayaraj claimed. The question papers were sent to exam centres online and it was an “extraordinary decision” under “extraordinary circumstances”, he added.More Related News
