Bengaluru: About 60 college engineering can introduce Honors BSC courses in science from this academic year.
On Tuesday, Visvesvaraya Technology University was looking for a government nod to start a synchronous course with a new national education policy (NEP).
The 4-year BSc (Hons) program will have science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics (steam) subjects.

It will be like the course offered at the Indian Science Institute and other major technology institutions, “said Charisidappa Chancellor.
There are proposals to choose students through the general entrance test.
Higher education engineering that offers this program will be selected based on NAAC and NBA accreditation and report of the inspection committee Local.
