The programme is specially designed with an objective to develop an understanding of the teaching-learning process at secondary school levels among student educators. It focuses on enabling student-teachers to reflect critically on perspectives of education and integrate holistically the theory and practices to facilitate active engagement of learners for better learning and knowledge creation.

The Integrated B.Ed. programme focuses on:
  • Creating sensitivity about language diversity in classroom and its role in the teaching-learning process
  • Developing an understanding in the context of education in contemporary Indian Society
  • Appreciating the role of context and socio-political realities about learners in facilitating learning in inclusive settings
  • Providing first-hand experience of all the school activities by engaging student-teachers as interns in secondary/senior secondary schools.

  • The integrated degree is equivalent to UG degree and Education degree (B.Ed.)  together, just in four years, helping students to save a year. (Whereas, on its own, the B.Ed. degree is of two years)
  • Students will be well groomed in general subjects and pedagogy
  • Immediate employment opportunities
  • Opens the doors to entrepreneurship
  • A builder of civilized society
Highlights:
  • Eligible to do Masters in disciplinary subjects
  • Eligibility to do Masters in Education (M.Ed.)

It has been designed to impart theoretical knowledge and practical skills to students in different disciplines of Science (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Botany, Zoology) and empower them with problem solving skills. At the end of four years students complete their graduation both in Science and in Education.  It saves one year for the students.

The programme offers a wide range of electives to cater to the needs of student-educators.
