Hello,

Several government colleges in India equate 'Honours' to 'Major' and 'Generic Elective (GE)' to 'Minor' subjects. These institutions participate in the Common University Entrance Test (CUET) UG exam for admissions. Notable examples include:

  1. University of Delhi (DU) :

    • Offers Honours programs across various disciplines.
    • GE courses allow students to pursue minor subjects alongside their major.
    • Admissions are through CUET UG.
  2. Banaras Hindu University (BHU) :

    • Provides a range of Honours courses.
    • GE options enable students to study additional subjects as minors.
    • Participates in CUET UG for admissions.
  3. Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) :

    • Offers Honours programs with interdisciplinary GE courses.
    • Admissions are conducted through CUET UG.
  4. Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI) :

    • Provides Honours courses in various fields.
    • GE subjects allow for minor specializations.
    • Admissions are based on CUET UG scores.
  5. Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) :

    • Offers Honours programs with diverse GE options.
    • Participates in CUET UG for undergraduate admissions.

These universities align their curriculum to allow students to major in a subject (Honours) while exploring minors through GE courses, facilitating a comprehensive educational experience.

Hope you find it useful !

Hello

Government colleges under CUET UG that follow a system where Honours is treated as a Major and Generic Elective (GE) is treated as a Minor.

Many central universities follow this structure such as :

1. University of Delhi (DU) – Follows the Four Year Undergraduate Programme (FYUP) where Honours is the major and GE subjects are considered minors.

2. Banaras Hindu University (BHU) – Offers multidisciplinary options where Honours is the major.

3. Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) – Recently introduced UG courses under CUET with a major minor system.

4. Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) – Follows a structured Honours and elective system.

5. Central Universities like JMI, HCU and others – Offer flexibility in subject combinations.

Hope this gives you the clarity you need.
