UGC-NET exam dates

Last week, the University Grants Commission-National Eligibility Test (UGC-NET) also announced fresh exam dates. The exam was cancelled a day after it was held on June 18 after the education ministry received input that its integrity was compromised. Now, the exam will be conducted from August 21 to September 4.

The UGC-NET is a test to determine eligibility for the award of a Junior Research Fellowship, for the appointment of assistant professors, and for admission to PhD courses.
