1.5 Academic Programmes
The University offers Certificates, Diplomas, Advance Diplomas, Post Graduate Diplomas and Degrees, which

survey of the need for such programmes. They are launched with a view to fulfilling the learners’ needs for:
certification,
improvement of skills,
acquisition of professional qualifications,
continuing education and professional development at workplace,
self-enrichment,
diversification and updating of knowledge, and
empowerment.
1.6 Course Preparation
Learning material is specially prepared by teams of experts drawn from different universities and specialized
institutions in the area spread throughout the country as well as in-house faculty. The material is scrutinized
by the content experts, in -house faculty and edited by the language experts at IGNOU before these are finally
sent for printing. Similarly, audio and video materials are produced in consultation with the course writers, inhouse faculty and producers. The material is previewed and reviewed by the faculty as well as outside experts
and edited/modified, wherever necessary, before they are finally dispatched to the students, Learner Support
Centres and Telecast through Gyan Darshan.
1.7 Credit System
a) Defining Credit in ODL
The University follows the ‘Credit System’ for most of its programmes. Each credit in our system is
equivalent to 30 hours of learner study comprisingall learning activities (i.e., reading and comprehending
the print material, listening to audio, watching video, attending counselling sessions, teleconference and
writing assignment responses). Thus, a 4-credit course involves 120 hours of study and a 6-credit course
involves 180 hours of study. This helps the learner to know the academic effort he/she has to put in, to
successfully complete a course. Completion of an academic programme (Degree or Diploma) requires
successful completion of the assignments, practical, projects and the Term-End Examination as per
requirement of each course in a programme.
b) Choice Based Credit System (CBCS)
The Bachelor’s Degree Programmes offered through this prospectus follow the Choice Based Credit
System (CBCS) introduced by UGC. The CBCS provides the learner with flexibility to study the
subjects/courses at their own pace; greater choice of interest
