Fully Flexible Credit System

In the continuous pursuit of academic excellence and creating a student-friendly learning environment, VIT introduced the Fully Flexible Credit System (Shortly referred to as FFCS). FFCS is a way in which students have complete freedom in tailoring their course and in a way they wish. It accommodates the wants and needs of the entire student community. With this system, a student can prepare his/her own timetable with the specific courses he/she intends to do in that semester along with the timings of classes and choice of professors. Learning has never been this fun. Students have the flexibility to pursue their other interests in sports or club activities and scheduling of classes will take it along the way. It is a beneficial system that is tailor-made to suit all the kinds of students with all learning needs, whether someone wishes to complete subjects early or pursue subjects of the other branches for acquiring a Minor/Honours degree. In addition, this system ensures offerings of subjects from all disciplines, encouraging students to pursue multiple interests and develop holistically.
