(about 50% of total credits) through core courses in the major subject.
 In the previous pattern(s), the subjects which were affiliated to any
college/institute under BU as both Hons. & General subjects, those subjects
under CCFUP shall be treated as Major subjects for both 4-Year Hons.
Programme & 3-Year Degree Programme.
 In the previous pattern(s), the subjects which were affiliated to any
college/institute under BU as Hons. Subjects only, those subjects under
CCFUP shall be treated as Major subjects for 4-Year Hons. Programme

Statistics/History as the case may be.
