The syndicate of the University of Madras has approved the Tirukkural as an elective in undergraduate programmes at all affiliated colleges from the upcoming even semester. Students will learn professional ethics from the couplets of saint-poet Thiruvalluvar, Vice-Chancellor S. Gowri said. The university would place the proposal before the academic council and get it approved by the Board of Studies. Students must henceforth submit the abstract of their Ph.D. theses in Tamil and English. “The abstract is generally for 10 pages. The students will have to translate their abstract into Tamil and include it in the theses,” he said.More Related News
