While Mumbai University has declared October 5 as the semester examination date for Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) in Computer Science, students and colleges continue to struggle in completing the syllabus, which was changed and finalised only on July 26. The varsity’s rule states that there has to be a minimum 90-day gap between curriculum finalisation and the exam but here, students are expected to appear for their exams in just two months. Thanks to last moment changes brought in by MU, students and affiliated colleges are left in the lurch.

Rampant decision
Magadeo Jagtap, senior senate member, said, “It feels like varsity is taking advantage of not having appropriate decision making bodies due to absence of the university Act. Authorities are taking rampant decisions like this, which may appear academically important but become a burden on students.”
