AUS to introduce new degree courses

The Arunachal University of Studies (AUS), which has added 102 graduate and post graduates to the state’s human resources pool this year, has announced plans to set up a multi-specialty hospital and introduce degree courses in mass communication, nursing education and medical education. Disclosing this during the university’s first convocation, its Chancellor-cum-WEM Chairman Aswini Lochan said the AUS aims to steer local youth towards joining the national mainstream and expressed confidence about the institution’s ability to carve a niche globally through its qualitative performances.

Acting Vice Chancellor Professor V K Kawatra said that the ASU, set up under WEM, has pragmatic plans for expansion, including introducing a course in Buddhist studies from next year which would involve the participation of learned monks.

A thunderous applause rent the air on Sunday after Deputy Chief Minister Chowna Mein, Rehabilitation Council of India member-secretary S K Srivastava and Bar Council of India executive committee chairman Apurba Kumar Sharma were conferred Doctorates in Literature (D Lit) or Causa Honoris degree in recognition of their invaluable contributions in various fields.

Dr. Chowna Mein said the growth of human resources under the supervision of the World Education Mission (WEM) would help meet avowed objectives. He further stated that a skilled work force in large numbers was the need of the hour and suggested the introduction of new technologies in the agricultural sector.
