IGNOU: 5 Answered Questions

How is the MA in psychology distance course at IGNOU? What are the job prospects of it compared to a regular distance course?

Arijit PathakMaster of Arts in Clinical Psychology, Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU)

Admission is available in two sessions: July and January. The university supplies the study material, which is fine. It follows a year system, with 7 courses (6 theory and 1 practical) in the first year and 6 in the second year (3 theory, 1 practical, 1 internship requiring at least 240 hours total, and 1 project/research (can only be done if you pass the Research Methodology and Statistics subjects in the first year)). There are three optional courses to choose from in the second year of IGNOU's MA in Psychology.

  • Clinical psychiatry
  • Psychology of counseling
  • Psychology in the workplace

Each has different job prospects, and it is believed you will be familiar with them because it is clear from their names what fields they represent. The procedure is extremely simple. Obtain admission, complete assignments, and register for the exam at the desired exam center. After passing the exams, which can take between three and six years. Following that, you will be given a mark sheet and a provisional certificate. To obtain an original degree, you must wait at least six to twelve months for the convocation to be held by IGNOU, and you must pay a nominal fee of Rs 600-900 for registration and certificate.

If you are unable to attend the convocation, your certificate will be mailed to your home address. However, the practicals and viva-voce are an exception because some of the exams were conducted recently (depending on the Regional/Study center). It is acceptable in the first year, but if it occurs in the second year, it may cause a hindrance for higher education because the certificates may not be available at the right time for seeking admission, (seems IGNOU is nowadays quickly distributing the provisional and statement of marks. The good news is that you will receive it directly to your home via post after completing the course). The learner must submit assignments for all theory papers, and writing them will take a lot of time, but it will be beneficial for a passionate learner of psychology.

If you want to pursue this MA in Psychology from IGNOU, you must fully commit to this course because the field of psychology is vast. So working while pursuing this course may not be the best option because it may require 3 months of internship, pure research work, and an ocean of writing work. 

Regarding the job prospects, as a student of the specific course, you hope to win the UGC NET/JRF and continue your education to become a lecturer. If I get the JRF, I plan to pursue an M Phil in Clinical Psychology and become a licensed clinical practitioner in the mental health field.

How is BBA from IGNOU?

Rishabh MalhotraAssistant manager-Inside Sales at Koenig Solutions (company)

Everything in life has advantages and disadvantages. Here are the advantages and disadvantages of BBA from IGNOU:

Pros:

  • IGNOU offers a BBA with a Specialization in Retailing (rather than a general BBA), which broadens your opportunities in the retail sector beyond sales and marketing.

  • Every year, you receive a certificate. As a result, you can begin working immediately after finishing your 12th grade and continue to advance each year. You don't have to wait three years for a degree before you can get a job. You can study while working.

  • Every year, you are given a project that allows you to gain real-world experience in the retail industry and complete it in retail organisations.

  • Retail Associations of India is collaborating with IGNOU-BBA. You will receive the best curriculum for it.

  • The course is written in simple language that is easy to understand, and it includes the best knowledge in the retail specialisation.

  • The cost of this course is the lowest of any university that offers distance education for BBA.

 

Cons:

  • There is no Math or Statistics subject in the entire BBA course from IGNOU, so it is entirely theoretical.

  • Unfortunately, some prestigious MBA programmes look for a Math subject in the course of graduation when accepting applications. However, there will be many colleges that will accept your degree.

  • Similarly, some government jobs require a Math subject as part of your bachelor's degree programme. However, there will be plenty of opportunities for you in the government. as well as the private sector for employment You can still apply for exams such as Bank PO, SSC, and UPSC.

  • The same exposure found in regular BBA will never be found in distance BBA. The reason for this is that you will not learn how to give presentations in front of an audience, which is essential if you are studying BBA.

This course is not offered in every city. So, before enrolling in IGNOU's BBA programme, you should contact the IGNOU regional centre in your city. Because this course is taken by a small number of students, it is only available in a few cities. However, when comparing distance universities for the course of BBA, it is recommended that IGNOU is the best because of its lower cost, reputation, and educational standard.

Do ignou students get placements? How and where is the placement held?

Ankita Sarkar
Neeraj ThakurStudied at Indira Gandhi National Open University

IGNOU is one of the reputed universities of India that provides all kinds of courses ranging from distance to online and offline. Hence, the question rests on what is actually the placement scenario of the university.

The prominent details regarding placements to be focused on are as follows.

Campus Placement Cell (CPC):

University has a campus placement center that acts as an epicenter for the entire process of employment-related activities.

  • It ensures that the right candidate is made available with respect to a particular job description.

  • It also provides support to companies in all possible forms like logistically and infrastructural resources.

  • The prime-most method in which CPC helps is by organizing Job fairs, Campus drives, and recruitment drives.

  • It is also planning to launch a training & placement portal on the Samarth platform. It will make the process of placements more channelized and updated.

Job Opportunities:

  • As compared to the number of individuals that graduate from IGNOU, the placement percentage is quite less and not impressive.

  • Very few students have got the opportunity for campus placements.

  • The general view of many pass out students is similar in this case that placement options are almost negligible.

  • There are certain courses where students have bagged good packages like B.A. (arts).

Once you get registered for the placement cell, you will definitely receive notifications but that too prominently for graduation courses, not for masters courses.

Alumni Distribution:

Although the alumni distribution of the university shows a varied sectoral range. The below figures justify the above fact.

  • Engineering- 13%

  • Business Development- 13%

  • Operations- 13%

  • Information Technology- 13%

  • Education- 9%

  • Sales- 8%

  • Human Resources- 6%

  • Finance- 5%

There have been IGNOU alumni in different companies, prominently in the IT sector like HCL Technologies, IBM, Accenture, TCS, Cognizant, Genpact, Wipro, Tech Mahindra.

IGNOU definitely is a sure shot option for studies and pursuing degrees but for placements, it holds a back seat. It can provide you the liberty to do a job and pursue a course, but it is a little inactive when it comes to providing good & decent placements. However, students have the option to opt for off-campus placements.
