UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

Statements A, B, C and D collectively describe constructive alumni engagement. A is correct because alumni often guide students through mentoring and networks. B is correct as financial and infrastructural contributions from alumni are common. C is correct since updated databases enable tracking outcomes and building relationships. D is correct because alumni inputs in lectures and advisory roles can strengthen curriculum relevance. E and F are false as alumni are important stakeholders throughout their careers, not just immediately after graduation.

Option A:
Option A is correct because it includes all four true statements about mentoring, financial support, data maintenance and academic involvement, while excluding E and F, which wrongly deny stakeholder status or limit engagement to a short period.

Option B:
Option B is incorrect because it adds E, which claims alumni are not stakeholders, contradicting the recognised role of alumni in governance and support.

Option C:
Option C is incorrect because it omits A, thus failing to mention mentoring and placement support as central aspects of alumni engagement.

Option D:
Option D is incorrect because it includes F, which restricts engagement to the first year after graduation, and omits B, thereby underplaying alumni financial contributions.
