Vellore Institute of Technology, Tamil Nadu, is introducing the Fully Flexible Credit System (FFCS), by which students can sign up for courses according to their interests and ability to finish them. The plan can be altered later, if they want.


Under FFCS, each programme will have baskets of courses classified under university core, university electives, programme core and programme electives. At the end of the programme, each student is expected to have the following credit distribution: engineering (64 per cent), science (20 per cent), humanities (8 per cent), and management (8 per cent). Ample options are given to students to choose interdisciplinary courses from other engineering schools.
