School of Open Learning to introduce 10 new courses
NEW DELHI: The University of Delhi is all set to introduce 10 new courses under its School of Open Learning (SOL) from the upcoming academic session, which will include undergraduate as well as vocational courses.
Providing a greater opportunity to students from across the country, who endeavour to get enrolled in Delhi University, the new courses will increase the chances of students getting admission into the prestigious varsity.
According to the director of SOL CS Dubey, the course structure and syllabus has already been prepared. The courses will have to be approved by the University and the Distance Education Board (DEB) before starting the programmes.
Courses like Bachelor of Vocation in Human Resource Management will be introduced. Other courses which are included in the list are BSC (Honours) Mathematics, BA (Honours) History, BA (Honours) Economics, BA (Honours) Hindi, BA (Honours) Psychology, BA (Honours) Hindi journalism and others. “The reason behind introducing these courses is the good demand among students,” said Dubey.
He further said: “When we studied the number of applications received for these courses, we found that many students had applied, but only a limited number of them got admission. There is a lot of demand for these courses among students so we are providing a chance for students to study these courses through distance medium.”
