In India higher education is provided by both Government and private universities. Universities in India are recognized by the University Grants Commission (UGC). The types of universities controlled by the UGC include Central universities, State universities, Deemed universities and Private universities. In addition to these universities, other institutions are granted the permission to autonomously award degrees, and while not called university by name, act as such. They usually fall under the administrative control of the Department of Higher Education. IITs, IIMs, IIITs are example of autonomous Institutes. -
Autonomous college means the college is not under any university and follows its own rules, regulations and syllabus pattern.
