NEW DELHI - Starting its first face-to-face lecture for a Ph.D programme in social sciences, the Indira Gandhi National Open University is starting lectures for its economics students.
“Now, students aspiring to do their research work in economics can attend a face-to-face lecture,” a statement from IGNOU said.
“This has been started keeping in view the fact that the students find it difficult to comprehend the technical nature and advanced version of the compulsory and optional courses prescribed as pre-Ph.D course work,” it said.
IGNOU is the world’s largest university, according to UNESCO, with almost three million students in India and 33 other countries.
