No nod from UGC to the institute of cyber security and law

Waiting for the permission from University Grants Commission (UGC), The Institute of Cyber Security and Law at Delhi University is yet to start functioning.The institute along with the Delhi School of Journalism (DSJ) has already received a nod from the executive council of the DU. DSJ started its academic session last month and is offering a five-year integrated course in Hindi and English Journalism.University's EC passed a resolution on July 14 under which the institute was established under the Faculty of Social Sciences. The institute was supposed to run a postgraduate diploma in cyber security and law. It is a one year course but offers flexibility to the students under which they can complete the course in two years duration. “The institute could not be started as we have not heard from the UGC. We have written to them several times but there has been no communication from their end,” said Sunaina Kanojia, the course in-charge. According to the sources the course could be started because it was a self-financed course and faced the opposition from teachers and students as they questioned the decision to start the journalism course in self-finance mode.“Despite opposition, the DSJ was started on self-financing mode. According to the rules, the course should have been first started as a department. Then why is there a different rule when it is just a diploma? The hurry in which DSJ was started forces us to think there is some conspiracy,” said Rajesh Jha, DU executive council member.
