After the University of Mumbai (MU) announced that it will hold all summer semester exams online, the HSNC University has said that it will opt for a ‘blended’ mode of examination.
HSNC University is a newly-minted cluster university comprising HR College, KC College and Bombay Teachers’ Training College. On Saturday, the university’s provost, Niranjan Hiranandani, said that practical exams will be held physically in laboratories and theory exams will be held online.
“The Covid-19 pandemic has disrupted the education sector like many other sectors in the economy. This has forced all the educational intuitions to shift modes of communication and examination on digital platforms under strict lockdowns. However, with the gradual reopening of the economy and with the examination period being right around the corner, HSNC University will take a cautious approach of holding examinations in a blended manner,” said Hiranandani.
“The practical examinations will be physically conducted in the laboratories, wherein batches of students will be scheduled to appear for exams in a staggered manner keeping in mind all due covid precaution and safety measures in place. The theory examinations will be kept on the online mode in the backdrop of pandemic led restrictions,” he said. The exam dates are yet to be announced.
