Choice-Based Credit System (CBCS): The university follows CBCS, which allows students to choose courses and earn credits based on their performance.
Grades and GPA: Students are awarded grades for each course in a semester, and their Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) is calculated to measure their academic performance. Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is used to evaluate the overall performance of a student across all semesters.
Prescribed Curriculum: Each programme has a prescribed curriculum or Scheme of Teaching and Evaluation, which includes the required courses, laboratories, and other degree requirements. It also incorporates SWAYAM and Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) offered by reputed institutions.
Auditing Courses: Students have the option to audit courses, which allows them to gain additional exposure without the pressure of obtaining a grade. This can give them an advantage in placements.
Evaluation System: The evaluation of students is comprehensive and continuous throughout the semester. It consists of Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) and Semester End Examination (SEE). CIE and SEE carry equal weightage of 50% each, resulting in a total evaluation of 100 marks for each course, regardless of its credit value.
Assessment Methods: Before each semester, faculty members may choose assessment methods such as assignments, seminars, quizzes, group discussions, case studies, practical activities, class presentations, industry reports, etc., with suitable weightage for each.
Semester End Examination: A Semester End Examination is conducted for all registered courses at the end of each semester. However, some courses that already have Continuous Internal Evaluation may not require a SEE.
Makeup Examinations: Students who fail the Semester End Examination in one or more courses are eligible for makeup examinations, which provide an opportunity to retake the failed exams and improve their grades.

Neither is better; they suit different goals. Clinical psychology focuses on assessing, diagnosing and treating mental health disorders. Counselling focuses on emotional, relationship and life challenges.
A psychiatrist is a medical doctor (MBBS followed by an MD) who diagnoses conditions and can prescribe medication. A clinical psychologist is not a medical doctor. They use psychological assessment and therapy such as CBT, and do not prescribe medication.
Unlikely. AI can help with screening, record-keeping and self-help tools, but therapy depends on human judgement, empathy and ethics. Trained clinicians who use AI well will be in demand.
No. NEET is not required. Admission to CMR’s M.Sc. Psychology is through a written test and an interview.
Clinical psychologists assess, diagnose and treat emotional, behavioural and mental health conditions using psychological tests and therapy. They work in hospitals, clinics, schools, rehabilitation centres and private practice. CMR’s programme covers psychopathology, psychotherapy, assessment, supervised clinical practice, internships and a dissertation.
No single branch leads everywhere. Clinical, counselling, organisational (HRDM), child, forensic and sports psychology all have demand. Your prospects depend on the specialisation, the quality of supervised practice and, for clinical work, licensed training. CMR also offers Counselling and HRDM.
