Bachelor of Vocation (B.Voc.) as defined under the University Grants Commission (UGC) guidelines is a skill-based undergraduate degree program that integrates vocational training with academic education. It was introduced by UGC to improve employability, provide job-ready skills, and bring flexibility in higher education.
The UGC has specified B.Voc. as a formal undergraduate degree under the UGC Act, 1956, and it is recognized at par with other bachelor's degrees (like BA, BSc) for purposes such as competitive examination and further education.
Designed to offer a balanced mix of practical skills and general education so that students become work-ready while also retaining the option to pursue higher studies.
Unlike traditional degrees which are theory-centric, B.Voc. ensures hands-on vocational training in industry-relevant areas, making graduates job-ready.
