MU PG results likely to be delayed by another month | Mangaluru News – Times of India

Mangaluru: The postgraduate students of Mangalore University (MU) may have to wait for a month or more, for their examination results to be declared. The results have been reportedly delayed, as MU officials are busy rectifying the errors of undergraduate (UG) results.
After much delay, the PG examinations concluded in September, and the results were supposed to be declared within a month. Senior professors have hinted at an abnormal delay, stating that the evaluation work is delayed, as the workforce is busy rectifying errors of UG results.
“If everything was in place, the results should have been declared within a month after the examination was held. Currently, it is delayed for more than three months, and may take another month or more to be declared. Evaluation for only a few PG courses has been completed. The chaos is because the varsity adopted MuLinx, an in-house examination software,” said a senior professor.
Another professor, requesting the varsity to declare the results at the earliest, said that PG students who have to apply for jobs or plan advanced studies are affected, as they are likely to lose out on opportunities.
PS Yadapadithaya, vice-chancellor, Mangalore University, agreed that PG results have been delayed for long. He said, “Currently, the examination section is concentrating on clearing UG results, due to which PG results have been delayed. When the responsibility was entrusted to private firms, the evaluation work of both UG and PG examinations was carried out simultaneously. This time it was not possible.”
“A committee constituted to do failure mode analysis has submitted the report. It will be presented during the syndicate meeting scheduled on Monday,” said Yadapadithaya. “MULinx has created a lot of problems for the examination process. I am for changing the software, and will express the same during the syndicate meeting,” stressed Yadapadithaya.
