Examinations play an important role in activating the students and keep them on their toes. Examination is a means to evaluate the subject knowledge gained by the students and it provides feedback to the teachers to improve upon their teaching methodology. In the last couple of decades, agricultural education has witnessed tremendous growth in terms of number, as well as quality of students admitted and variety of degree programmes / courses offered. As a result of this, examination system has become most important yardstick to test the knowledge and skill of students.

Over a period of time, separate External Examination Cell has been established at each of the constituent Colleges of the University, as a consequence to the introduction of external examination system during 1999-2000, mainly for the purpose of co-ordinating the Examination related activities. Subsequently, the University has established ‘University Examination Center (UEC)’ at the GKVK campus during the academic year 2011-12. The UEC is responsible for conducting Centralized Common Examinations across the constituent Colleges, which have resulted in maintaining uniformity in offering courses, complete coverage of syllabus by the teachers, centralized evaluation of answer scripts and speedy announcement of results. This also has minimized the cost of the examination process.
