The decision was taken after the Minister of Higher Education held a meeting through video-conference with Vice-Chairperson of Odisha State Higher Education Council, secretary and senior officials of the department.

As per the decision, 25 per cent of the syllabus of both UG and PG students will be covered by ‘Blended Learning’. Fir UG students, the entire second unit (25 per cent of total four units) of each subject and paper is earmarked for self-study.

In case of PG students, respective departments will earmark 25 per cent of the syllabus for self-study.

For the portion earmarked for self-study, no calssroom teaching will be held. A synergetic combination of text books and e-learning resources will be prescribed to the students.
