Viva for M.Phil, Ph.D to be conducted online
To avoid academic loss due to coronavirus, the University Grants Commission (UGC) has directed universities to conduct viva for PhD and MPhil through video conferencing. "The universities may conduct the Ph.D. and M. Phil. Viva -Voce Examinations through Video Conferencing using Google, Skype, Microsoft Technologies or any other reliable and mutually convenient technology," the UGC has said. An expert committee was constituted by the UGC to frame guidelines on exams and academic calendar. The common objective of all the recommendations was to continue the academics without compromising the quality. "While conducting the Viva-Voce Examination through Video Conferencing using electronic means, it may be ensured that it will be open to be attended by members of the Research Advisory Committee, all faculty members of the department, research scholars and other interested experts/ researchers, besides the Research Supervisor and Expert(s)/Examiner(s), as applicable," it said emphasizing on the sanctity of the viva exams. "It is also imperative on the part of the university to maintain due record of the same, including the report signed by Expert(s)/ Examiner(s) appointed for conducting the same," it added.
