1.7 Credit System<br />

The University follows the ‘Credit System’ for most of its programmes. Each credit in our<br />

system is equivalent to 30 hours of student study comprising all learning activities (i.e.<br />

reading and comprehending the print material, listening to audio, watching video, attending<br />

counselling sessions, teleconference and writing assignment responses). Thus, a four credit<br />

course involves 120 hours of study. This helps the learner to know the academic effort one<br />

has to put in, to successfully complete a course. Completion of an academic programme<br />

(Degree, Diploma) requires successful completion of both the assignments and the term-end<br />

examination of each course in a programme.
