The National Education Policy (NEP 2020) has transformed higher education in India by introducing a flexible, skill‑oriented curriculum that emphasizes holistic learning. Panjab University Chandigarh has updated its syllabus under NEP guidelines for private students and CDOE (Centre for Distance and Online Education) learners, ensuring equal access to quality education.
This revised syllabus includes Compulsory Courses, Value Added Courses, and Skill Enhancement Courses (SEC) designed to build practical knowledge, employability, and interdisciplinary skills. Students can now explore subjects beyond their core discipline, gain industry‑relevant expertise, and strengthen their academic foundation. The NEP framework encourages multidisciplinary learning, credit transfer, and continuous assessment, making education more student‑centric and future‑ready.
Whether you are a private candidate or enrolled through CDOE, downloading the updated Panjab University syllabus will help you plan your studies effectively and stay aligned with the latest academic reforms.
