    The overall experience is Good in IGNOU.

    College Infrastructure

    As Indira Gandhi National open University is a college that provides distance education it's headquarter is in Delhi but people can enroll in there nearest study centre/ colleges, so the study centre I'm in is a very nice College where the infrastructure is very suitable for the students containing labs, sports ground, library etc.

    Academics

    I am Pursuing Masters of commerce in IGNOU, because the university has been granted A++ certificate by NAAC, and it is easily accessible to every student. The teaching quality is very good , and the college do provide study materials too.

    Placements

    IGNOU have a placement cell where a variety numbers of companies come to hire students, the companies are reputed organisation in the industry like LIC, ICICI bank, Bajaj Finance etc, they do provide career counseling too.

    Value for Money

    The Course fee for the total Mcom program is 20,000rs for 2 years which includes the study material costs too, I feel the money is worth as compared to the services that are being provided, it's totally worth it.

    Campus Life

    As it is a distance learning institution there is no campus life for students enrolled in it, as they have to come to the campus only only Sunday's and during the exams and lab practical duration. Campus structure varies from study centre to study centre.

    It's a nice experience to review your college.

    College Infrastructure

    The university is divided into an extensive network of regional centres and further concerned study centres across the country. The study centre which I had allotted was my town's government college & it has all those basic infrastructural facilities which any student needs like smartboards in spacious & hygienic classrooms, campus wifi facility, decent library, well-built & equipped playground & science labs. Overall the infrastructure is quite fulfilling.

    Academics

    IGNOU has the best academic offerings and environment. The framework of curriculum and the way it is being designed and presented is amazing. It has the best quality of syllabus and books which any student deserves and aspires for. Content of books is very extensive and relevant in gaining competitive expertise. So academically this university inculcate the student with learning and intellectual capabilities and help excelling in the concerned field. I personally refer to the books very much especially for my competitive exams.

    Placements

    Though the university has a campus placement cell but the claims of it helping in gaining the placement opportunities is untrue for me atleast in my case. I have never been approached for any placement drive conducted by the university. There are no options being provided for obtaining any employment recruitment.

    Value for Money

    IGNOU is best in offering quality education at nominal expenses. For my course I paid an estimated total of just ten thousand for the whole course of three years including examination fee which happens only once in a year. So the expenditure on the education is worth it.

    Campus Life

    As it is an open university so the campus interaction is nominal and almost negligible. Usually the students study by themselves without any classroom learning. Though the study centres do provide needful classes of some courses. So if any course which demands teaching facilities, the university fulfills it for the students.

    Others

    I think my purpose was solved by enrolling in this University. I was a working individual and I wanted my education to not get hamper with my working schedule. So this university provided me the chance to continue my education with the liberty to work as well.

    It was nice but not great

    College Infrastructure

    I would ignou 4 stars out of 5 for their infrastructure i have completed my one year in ignou and I think all the buildings are decently maintained and there are different blocks for every stream,they even have a playground area,they do provide library facilities but books are not available

    Academics

    I am studying Mca from there, we had some online classes for few weeks which was okay okay but now we dont have any online classes,they don't even call us for labs. Stars i have given is for curriculum as it is latest and updated according to the trends in the market.

    Placements

    If you are thinking at placement from ignou ,you might be at wrong place. TThy do call some companies to hire you but u will get average salary. They focus on mass hiring . Less students are hired and students have to look for job on their own

    Value for Money

    I do think it is value for money . One semester fee for Mca is around 11,000 and then around 1500 we have to pay for exam fees . So the facilities they are providing in this range is pretty nice. But they should send the books on time otherwise they are of no use

    Campus Life

    Campus life is pretty decent they have big classrooms and even the students are very friendly . We can hangout in the playground or have some food in the canteen. Even though we dont have classes but teachers are of good nature

    Good for distance learning.

    College Infrastructure

    Ignou is an open University which provides distance learning so it allocates colleges or you can choose by your own choice and the colleges under IGNOU are really well maintained. Mostly they are government colleges so they have all necessary facilities and equipment but IGNOU provides all the material online. They have their own app too. You can do everything virtually. I chose maharaja agrasen college, delhi for my course and it is delhi University's college and it is well maintained too. It has a huge library with all the basic academic resources. And they have all kind if staffs to make the campus clean.

    Academics

    I am studying MCA_NEW from ignou and it provides me all the books, previous year paper online and we can download it anytime from the website. As in my course we don't go college on Saturday and Sundays but teachers are supportive, they clearify all the queries over the phone.

    Placements

    I don't think that they provide any big placement offers but they have their own placement cell where we can apply and hunt for jobs. Students cracked jobs by their own only. As it is distance learning so it doesn't focus on any placements.

    Value for Money

    I am paying 10-12 thousand rupees per semester for my course but it varies with every courses they provide. I think it's cheap and material and standard of paper is above average ao i would say it is value-for-money. It also provides practical knowledge too. Money would not wasted if we go there for distance learning courses.

    Campus Life

    As i said, i opt for maharaja agrasen college which is also affiliated to delhi University. But as an IGNOU student they ask us to come on Saturday or sundays only and their is no such activities providing by them, they do workshops online very often but not physical engagement. Teachers are very supportive and their management is helpful too, they resolve our queries over an mail too.

    Others

    I think, if anyone is going for a open distance learning and they want to do from government affiliated University then IGNOU might be the good choice.

    Placements

    Placements are good if you have a good performance you will surely get a good placement. Approx 85% students get placed. The highest package that I know of was around 13Lpa with is good. The average salary is around 6 7 Lacks per annum.

    Campus Life

    campus buzzes with energy. From the lively student union to the bustling cafeteria, there's always something happening. . I've made amazing friends through clubs and events, and it feels like there's a community for everyone.

    IGNOU as open distance institution doesn't have placements ... But the clg which I have been allotted have placements and regular bases have job mela but i don't the exact figure about placements and salary offered

    Value for Money

    IGNOU offers lots of course which we can do in distance that is graduation or post graduation or any certificate course... The cost of the course is decent and money is worth to it as it's central university so it's certificate have value

    It is an university where degree can done along with job.

    College Infrastructure

    As Indira Gandhi National Open University is an open university, therefore books need to be collected from the regional centre of the city in case of bachelor degrees. Students can select their study centre at the time of admission where they had to submit their assignments timely. Before the pandemic, classes were organised by the concerned authorities of the respective study centre.

    Academics

    I m doing bachelor degree major in Economics. As it is an open university as mentioned above, I had never experienced the physical classes but the curriculum is updated accordingly. Yes, it provides us the opportunity to apply in various govt/ non govt sectors. Any one who is already in a job , can continue his/her further studies.

    Placements

    No, the university will be not provide any kind of placements to its students as it's a distance mode university. Anyone who want to complete his studies along with his job, can easily complete any kind of courses . But, he has to submit his assignments timely in order to make himself eligible for the giving term examination.

    Great learning experience for distant education.

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    Great Infrastructure of affiliate College , As IGNOU is a distant education University, it doesn't have it's own college but it has collaboration with other colleges which have great infrastructure and every facilities available which a student needed.

    Academics

    IGNOU has great academic system, it has a credit system for the courses you choose. It has also have a good options available to choose from variety of Courses in 2nd and 3rd year of any discipline or programme.

    Placements

    As IGNOU is a distant education University, it doesn't provide us placement offers which is a negative point of this University. But one can have placement by their own efforts if he/she has scored good marks as even though this is a distant education University, it is recognised in our whole country.

    Value for Money

    It is definitely best value for money as compared to other universities because it's fees is very much affordable by anyone, when compared to other universities which have high charges high academic fees. Being a government University it does provide value for money.

    Campus Life

    IGNOU doesn't have it's own college at all places but it has collaboration with other colleges which have great campus which has all facilities at par with all expensive private colleges. Good thing is it mainly located at the center of the City so it is convenient to reach there.

    Others

    If anyone wants to do graduation or post graduation or any course by distance learning,then I definitely recommend IGNOU University to everyone because of its systematic management, guidance and ease of access.

    Is IGNOU good for educational degree?

    Hey,

    Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) is a good university. IGNOU is a central government university that was established in 1985. It is accredited by NAAC, approved by AICTE, and recognized by UGC. IGNOU degrees are considered valid when applying for higher education, job opportunities, and government jobs.

    The quality of study materials is good and that it's not easy to pass the exams. It is worth graduating from IGNOU because the university courses are authorized and recognized by the University Grants Commission.

    However, it is difficult to get a job with a degree from IGNOU without any other degree or experience. Students get 6 to 8 books per subject and have to study all books.

    Hope this helps you.

    what are the advantages of non- verbal communication? ignou begae 182

    Greetings!

    Non-verbal communication, as explored in IGNOU's BEGAE 182 course, offers several advantages. Firstly, it can convey emotions and feelings effectively. Facial expressions, gestures, and body language provide a nuanced understanding beyond words. Additionally, non-verbal cues enhance clarity. Visual aids, for example, can simplify complex information. Non-verbal communication is also crucial in cross-cultural interactions, where gestures and expressions can bridge language gaps. Furthermore, it plays a significant role in building trust. People often rely on non-verbal signals to gauge sincerity and authenticity. In professional settings, strong non-verbal communication skills contribute to effective leadership and teamwork. Understanding and utilizing these non-verbal elements can greatly enhance the overall effectiveness of communication, fostering better connections and mutual understanding.
