IGNOU Reviews on Infrastructure, Campus, Placement, Facilities & Faculty

My study centre was located in Rohini Sector 8. The classroom itself was decent, and since I attended sessions in January, the cold weather made it fairly comfortable. However, I imagine during summer it would get quite congested given the room size. On practical days, the centre felt overcrowded a large number of students turned up, and almost half of them had to stand outside since there wasn't enough space. The centre does have a lab, but it's quite small and can't comfortably accommodate the number of students attending practicals. Overall, the infrastructure is functional but could use improvement, especially in terms of space for practical sessions.

I am pursuing BA Honours Psychology through IGNOU. I chose this mode of study mainly because of safety concerns for women in regular colleges in Indian society, so distance education felt like a more secure option and also the fees were affordable then an regular college. Since it's not a regular college, classes are held only on Sundays. One major issue I faced was the delay in receiving study materials they took very long to arrive by post, so I eventually had to visit my regional centre personally and collect them myself. Apart from this, the course content itself is decent for building a foundation in psychology, though better material delivery systems would make the experience much smoother for students.

Being a distance education university, IGNOU does not offer any dedicated placement cell or campus placement support for BA Honours Psychology students. There are no companies that visit for recruitment, and no formal assistance is provided in terms of resume building, interview preparation, or job referrals. Students pursuing this course are largely on their own when it comes to finding internships or jobs related to psychology. This is fairly expected for a distance learning mode, but it would still be helpful if IGNOU provided at least some career guidance, webinars, or resource material related to job opportunities and higher studies in psychology.

The BA Honours Psychology program at IGNOU is extremely affordable compared to regular universities, costing only around ₹8,000-12,000 for the entire 3-year degree, paid in semester-wise installments. Given that a similar psychology degree from a private college could cost lakhs, IGNOU offers tremendous value for money. Even with the drawbacks like delayed study material and lack of placement support, the low cost combined with the flexibility of distance learning and the credibility of a recognized degree makes it a worthwhile investment, especially for students who cannot afford regular college or need a flexible, safer alternative to attend classes.

Since IGNOU is a distance learning university, there isn't much of a traditional "campus life" experience. Classes are held only on Saturdays and Sundays at the study centre, and apart from that, students visit only for practical sessions. There are no fests, clubs, regular social events, or day-to-day campus interaction like in regular colleges. Most of the studying is done independently at home using self-study materials. While this lack of campus life can feel isolating for students seeking a typical college experience, it works well for those who need flexibility due to work, family responsibilities, or safety concerns, as it allows learning without being bound to a daily campus routine.

I am currently pursuing B.Sc. Biochemistry from IGNOU, and my experience has been quite good. It allows students to study at their own pace. Overall, it is helpful for those who are working or preparing for other competitive examinations.

The study materials are provided in online or offline hard copy form according to students choice, which are detailed and easy to understand. The course content covers the fundamentals of biochemistry and related subjects well. The information is available on student portal . Sometimes information related to assignment and results are delayed.

As a B.Sc. Biochemistry student at IGNOU, I feel that placements are not the main strength of the university. While placement drives and career guidance programs are organized occasionally, students generally need to be proactive in searching for job opportunities and internships on their own. The degree is recognized and provides a good academic foundation, but career growth depends largely on the skills, practical experience, and additional qualifications acquired by the student. For those planning higher studies or competitive exams, the flexibility offered by IGNOU can be a significant advantage.

IGNOU offers excellent value for money. The course fees are quite affordable compared to most regular universities, while the degree is recognized across India. The study materials are comprehensive, and the flexibility to learn at your own pace makes it especially worthwhile for working students and those preparing for competitive exams. Considering the low cost and the quality of education provided, I believe IGNOU offers a very good return on investment.

Since IGNOU is an open university, the campus life is quite different from that of a regular college. Students do not experience daily classes, college events, or a traditional campus environment. Most learning is self-paced, with occasional visits to study centers for practicals, counseling sessions, or examinations. While this means fewer opportunities for social interaction, it provides great flexibility and independence. Students who actively participate in study center activities and online communities can still connect with peers and have a meaningful learning experience.

Again It's ODL, they do not pay much attention to it. Because I hadn't attended any class. They attend few online classes although but how is that going to compensate things. They only pay attention to examinations.

No idea. I actually had no idea about it. But as I had heard from my seniors there is no placements like facility. Student do their courses from IGNOU mostly because most of them are preparing for few government exams.
