In a major post-Covid step towards normalising academic activities on campus, the University of Hyderabad (UoH) has decided to permit an additional 2000 students to return to the campus. The move marks a major phase in reopening the university campus for enabling in-person academic activities.
A statement issued on Thursday noted, "The Vice Chancellor has approved the recommendations of the task force headed by professor Vinod Pavarala to permit the return of all terminal semester post-graduate students who will complete their respective programmes and graduate in June. Additionally, all Ph.D. students, except those who joined in 2020-21, can come back to resume their research work on campus. For now, all Master`s students who joined the University in 2020 will continue to have online classes. The return will be entirely voluntary and the University will continue teaching-learning activities online for those who wish to remain at their homes."
