ABOUT KUVEMPU UNIVERSITY - DIRECTORATE
OF DISTANCE EDUCATION
Offering
higher education through Distance Mode is another
important step taken by Kuvempu University so as to help student
community in their zeal for pursuing Post - Graduate studies.
The necessity of this was felt by the University when larger number
of students, who wanted seats for P.G. Studies, could not be
accommodated in our regular P.G. Programmes.
The University believes that Distance
Education is an equally good avenue to be made available to
interested students. The Degrees offered by the Directorate of
Distance Education are equivalent to that of regular degrees.
The DDE is offering a total number of 40 courses directly in various
faculties at the U.G., P.G. and Diploma levels.
In the year 2003 - 04, a total of 5614 and in 2004 - 05, a total of
9800 and in 2005 - 06, a total of 15000 students took admission to
the various courses offered through the DDE and have been totally
satisfied with the courses, course material, counseling /
orientation programmes and practicals conducted in the university
and its various study centres.
The previous year's exams were conducted on time and the results
were given soon after the exams to help the students get placements
of their choice. The DDE is also offering a number of need based
Post Graduate and Diploma courses in collaboration with various
reputed institutions whose details are also found in the following
pages.
The Distance Education programmes are also a part of the
University's outreach programmes to foster University-Society
relationship with the motto of "Education for All", to take quality
education to the doorsteps of desirous individuals who want to take
up higher education, for the discontinued who could not take up
regular education, housewives and employees who want to improve and
enhance their knowledge. The University firmly believes that
education and seeking knowledge is a life long learning concept.
