In the fourth cycle of accreditation by National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC), University of Mysore (UoM) has slipped to A grade. The grade is valid for five years from Sept. 20, 2021. UoM had secured A+ grade with 3.47 CGPA in the third cycle. NAAC team had visited the Varsity between Sept. 15 and 17 to assess the education & examination system and research.
Vice-Chancellor Prof. G. Hemantha Kumar said, “We hoped to retain A+ grade as we had good infrastructure and facilities for students. We lacked strength in teaching faculty and research.”
