Minister of Higher Education Department R Bindu on Tuesday said that there will be only four-year degree courses from next year. The minister said that the course is arranged in such a way that the students can decide whether to continue their studies in the fourth year. There will be an exit policy in place after the third year. A graduation certificate will be provided on completion of three years.
Those students interested can pursue the fourth year, and an Honors degree will be awarded to them. Research and internship will be given focus in the fourth year. Higher Education Minister R Bindu said in the history of the state, for the first time it has managed a Kerala curriculum framework.

It will be a complete change in the education scenario. Students will be
getting more freedom to choose minor and major courses according to
their aptitude. They are free and have the option of collecting credits
from other universities also. The flexibility will grant enthusiasm to
students.
