UGC to universities: MPhil not recognized as a degree, stop accepting applicants
The MPhil program was discontinued last year, as announced by the commission. It is encouraged that students do not enroll in the MPhil program.
Universities have been advised to cease accepting students into the MPhil program by the University Grants Commission (UGC). The commission has requested that enrollment in MPhil programs be discontinued because the degree is not recognized.
The commission discovered that certain universities are accepting new applications for admission to MPhil programs, which is why the UGC issued its notification.
