You want to know news about CUSAT 2013 to accommodate more students in popular courses so according to The Times of India, “KOCHI: The Cochin University of Science and Technology (Cusat) has raised its student intake capacity in popular courses. This is done as part of the university's initiative to generate more revenue to help overcome the financial crisis.

The departments of management studies, legal studies and masters in computer application have increased the student intake in their courses. The two schools of engineering have started MTech courses. "We are facing a financial deficit of Rs 22 crore per annum. It had been decided to internally generate Rs 10 crore from this academic year. But as we had to roll back fees of several courses, we are now only able to generate Rs 7 crore," said Cusat registrar A Ramachandran.

"We have increased the number of seats in our self-financing BBA LLB course from 30 to 48," said school of legal studies director V S Sebastian.

Almost 3,800 students applied for the course, of which 500 qualified. "In the general quota, students who scored 95-98 % were admitted and the cut off marks for those in the reserved category was 85-90%.

In management studies, they have almost doubled the student intake of regular courses. "Increase in number of students will lead to lesser interaction between teachers and students. But due to unavoidable circumstances, we have been forced to increase student intake, even as the number of teachers remain the same," said Cochin university employment information and guidance bureau chief M Bhasi.

There is severe shortage of funds in the university. While

Though the university has increased the number of courses, they are restricted by the government from charging fees on a par with private colleges. Also, as instructed by the government, teachers are now being paid salary as per the Sixth Pay Commission. But the state government's financial grant to the university has not been increased.”
