Engineering is the most popular and trendy course that was started through distance education. A few universities that provide distance education engineering are Institution for Engineers (India), Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), BITS-Pilani and many more. The distance education have gained more important because of modern technologies such as internet technologies, video conferencing,and charts. Nowadays all are available online and it is become more easier for the student pursing and the tutor's online. The minimum qualification to apply for the engineering course through this mode of study is a pass in 10+2 or any person who has completed three-year diploma in any of the courses such as the Civil/Mechanical/Computer Science/Chemical/Electrical. People who are working in relevant field are also eligible to apply for these engineering programs. Those who have completed the diploma program possess added advantage and may directly switch on to the second year of the course with a direct entrance test. Some Universities give admission based on the AMIE score, which is considered equivalent to the engineering degree. Distance education engineering includes the student-teacher interaction through video tapes, Internet or through computer CD’s. E-learning is the most effective mode of communication compared to tapes and CD’s and they may have a live interaction with the faculty. |
