About IGNOU
The Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), was established in the country in the year 1985 under the act of the Parliament. The organization aimed at conveying a world class quality of higher education with respect to various disciplines starting from science and technology; quality management and most significantly in business administration. The basic objective was to enroll students through distance learning.The students belonged to the following three categories of:
- Those who reside in very remote areas of the province and access to any recognized organization for higher education is very difficult.
- Those who are unable to attend regular course classes because of their financial and other possible constraints.
- Those who want to obtain higher educational qualification while they are working as professionals.
The university is recognized and accredited by University Grants Commission for Distance Education (UGC), National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE), Pharmacy Council of India (PCI), Indian Association of Physiotherapists (IAP), Council of Architecture (COA), The Institution of Engineers (India), All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), Association of Indian Universities (AIU).
