                   b. Enrichment courses
                   The College regularly offers certificate courses to its students and to students from
                   other  colleges  in  the  city  as  well.  Presently  there  are  about  thirty-five  courses  in
                   different subjects being offered.

                   c. Courses offered in modular form
                   At present, no courses are offered in modular form.

                   d. Credit transfer and accumulation facility
                   The undergraduate courses require the student to have earned up to 160 credits in six
                   semesters in order to complete the degree. The credit requirement for postgraduate
                   courses is 80 credits in four semesters.
                   In principle, the College allows credit transfer on a case-to-case basis considering the
                   curriculum  completed  in  the  earlier  institution. The  student  is  however  required  to
                   obtain an equivalence certificate attested by the Registrar, Bangalore University, in
                   keeping  with  university  norms  governing  such  transfers.  During  the  year  2013-15,
                   five students  from  different  states/universities  were admitted to  the College to  join
                   EPS, CBBT and PCM courses.

                   e. Lateral and vertical mobility within and across programs and courses
                   Students are permitted a small degree of lateral  mobility in that the CBCS courses
                   require  them  to  take  up  one  Open  Elective  with  another  department  if  they  are
                   postgraduate students and as many as three electives with other departments if they
                   are  undergraduate  students.  Owing  to  the  three-major  format  that  the  University
                   mandates, lateral mobility is not a realistic option beyond this.

                   Vertical  mobility  is  allowed  in  some  courses.  The  B.A.,  BSW,  B.A.  (Visual
                   Communication) and B. Com. courses are open to all interested students irrespective
