prospectus 2017-18INSTITUTE OF DISTANCE EDUCATION1.IntroductionThe formal system of highereducation in our country is facing theproblems of access, limitation of seats,lack of facilities and infrastructure.Academicians from various disciplinesopine that it is learning which is moreimportant and not the channel ofeducation. The education throughdistance mode is an alternative modeof imparting instruction to overcomethe problems of access, infrastructureand socio-economic barriers. This willmeet the demand for qualitativehigher education of millions of peoplewho cannot get admission in theregular system and wish to pursue theireducation. It also helps interestedemployed and unemployed men andwomen to continue with their higher education. Distance education is a distinct approach toimpart education to learners who remained away in the space and/or time from the teachers andteaching institutions on account of economic, social and other considerations. Our main aim is toprovide higher education opportunities to those who are unable to join regular academic andvocational education programmes in the affiliated colleges of the University and make highereducation reach to the doorsteps in rural and geographically remote areas of Arunachal Pradeshin particular and North-eastern part of India in general. In 2008, the Centre for Distance Educationhas been renamed as “Institute of Distance Education(IDE).”Continuing the endeavor to expand the learning opportunities for distant learners, IDE hasintroduced Post Graduate Courses in 5 subjects (Education, English, Hindi, History and PoliticalScience) from the Academic Session 2013-14.2.General Information2.1Profile of the UniversityRajiv Gandhi University (formerly Arunachal University) has been endeavouring since itsinception in 1984 to play a positive role in the socio-economic development of Arunachal Pradesh2
