Is IGNOU a good university?
Yes. IGNOU is definitely not just a degree-making university. The quality of study materials is pretty good and it’s not easy to pass the exams. This makes it not the best but a pretty good university. Also, don’t forget the fact that it's the world's largest open university.
IGNOU is a well-reputed and recognized university. The degrees are also favourably accepted for employment posing no problem due to distance learning.
Another benefit one can avail from IGNOU is its affordable fee structure. You can spend only INR 50,000-60,000 on your graduation and still get placed at a major MNC. Ultimately it’s up to you to decide if the university is good or bad
What is re-registration in IGNOU?
It is the process of applying to IGNOU for the next semester online or offline and paying the amount specified by IGNOU based on the degree. Re-registration allows you to enroll in classes for the following semester to complete your degree.
There was also an offline process, but that letter was closed, so I'm not sure if they're still accepting the DD at the counter (RC) or not. I prefer to take online steps because they are simple and convenient. You can also do it offline if your study center's regional center is still accepting applications at the counter.
Also, if you do not fill out the re-registration form this semester for any reason, you can easily pay in the following semester.
There would be no problem if you returned for 6 months. So don't do it. Costs vary depending on the courses you choose.
Is an IGNOU degree valid for UPSC?
You will be qualified. It should be a well-known university. You can check the eligibility criteria listed below:
Academic Qualification for IAS Exams:
-
The candidate must have a degree from one of the Universities established by an Act of the Central or State Legislatures in India, or from another educational institution established by an Act of Parliament or declared to be deemed as a University under Section 3 of the University Grants Commission Act, 1956, or an equivalent qualification.
-
Candidates who have taken or plan to take the qualifying exam and are awaiting results are also eligible to take the Preliminary Examination. All such candidates who qualify to take the Civil Services Main Examination must submit proof of passing the said exam with their application for the Main Examination.
-
In exceptional cases, the UPSC may treat a candidate who lacks the aforementioned requisite qualification as an eligible candidate if he or she has passed an examination administered by another institution, the standard of which, in the Commission's opinion, justifies his or her admission.
-
Candidates with professional and technical qualifications that the government recognizes as equivalent to professional and technical degrees.
-
Candidates who have completed the final year of their MBBS or any other Medical Examination but have yet to complete their internship can also sit for the Main Examination. They must, however, submit a certificate from the University / Institution's concerned authority confirming that they passed the final professional medical examination along with their Main Examination application.
At the interview stage, they must then produce a certificate from a competent authority stating that they have completed all of the requirements for the award of the Medical Degree (including internship).
Am I eligible for a government job after doing graduation from IGNOU distance education?
IGNOU is a reputable and accredited government distance learning university. It has been approved by both the UGC and the AICTE. So there is no doubt about the validity of IGNOU degrees now or in the future.
The second point to consider is Distance Education. Yes, degrees from open universities are not accepted for all types of jobs or vacancies. Approximately 10-15 years ago, the majority of government jobs required regular courses. This trend is currently changing.
IGNOU degrees are accepted in both cases. However, there are still very few government or private companies, such as TCS, that do not consider candidates from distance education. Because they are in short supply, you will have no trouble finding a job with an IGNOU degree. It also depends on the degree to some extent. Regular engineering or B.Ed degrees are still considered superior to distance degrees. Distance or regular mode courses such as BSc, Bcom, or BA are nearly equivalent.
In a nutshell, an IGNOU degree qualifies for the majority of government jobs.
What is the best distance learning MBA Program: Symbiosis Pune, IMT Ghaziabad, NMIMS, or IGNOU?
IGNOU is best for distance learning MBA. IGNOU MBA course structure is pretty good. You will get to learn the basics first then the main concepts. The study materials are good and make the learning process smooth. IGNOU also has a better reputation.
Symbiosis Pune is also a good option for MBA. You can choose one of these two options based on fee structure and eligibility.
What is the best distance learning MBA Program: Symbiosis Pune, IMT Ghaziabad, NMIMS or IGNOU?
IGNOU has an international reputation because it serves over 3 million students and offers over 200 courses. It is the world's largest university. In the long run, their curriculum is worthwhile, and there are very few negative reviews on IGNOU MBA online.
Symbiosis, IMT, and NMIMS each have their unique value and attractiveness in terms of employment. Regardless, if you end up learning the subject to the best of your ability, the university name serves only as decoration on top of the dish.
MBAs are well-suited to leadership roles such as managing a team. Your decision to work in your chosen field of engineering, where you will learn concepts such as how a company hierarchy works, its SOP, customer service, and so on, is a good one. This will provide you with a fresh perspective on the value and/or necessity of an MBA.
Work experience combined with an MBA from a government-approved university will be extremely beneficial (SMU is a big no-go area). Work experience always provides more comprehensive and valuable knowledge than books and degrees. Pursue excellence, and success will always follow.
Are master's degrees from IGNOU acceptable for admission into Ph.D courses in top universities?
Yes, IGNOU is UGC approved, so masters degrees from IGNOU are acceptable for Ph.D. courses in top universities.
But to get admission you will have to meet the other eligibility criteria as well. The university will check your marks, rank, average, and age. As IGNOU is an open university, there is no age bar for learning any degree.
Are master's degrees from IGNOU acceptable for admission into Ph.D. courses in top universities?
It is not only accepted, but it also falls into the H+ category. The H + classification simply indicates that the degrees earned at this institution are transferable to the university sector. It has nothing to do with a preliminary decision on whether this institution's qualifications can be equated with German higher education qualifications. It should be noted that no equivalence determination or evaluation of higher education institutions in Anabin occurs on the Status down.
Contrary to popular belief, the question of whether a foreign institution corresponds to a German university or a German university of applied sciences is not answered. In the field of higher education, equivalence definitions and assessments are conducted solely in terms of final types and degrees.
I have not yet received my IGNOU study material. What do I do?
Students should avoid completely relying on IGNOU study materials. They must prepare with the understanding that regardless of whether they obtain or do not obtain those recommended books and notes, their preparation must be fully operational and effective.
Apart from downloading the materials and studying them online, you should purchase the IGNOU Help Book for particular subjects of GULLY BABA PUBLICATION.
IGNOU: How long does it take for TEE results to come out?
At IGNOU, results are announced at fixed times for every program. The usual range of time is 1-3 months. IGNOU states the result declaration is 45 days from the end of exams. But most of the time, it's 60-65 days. The maximum time period is 3 months.
