IT Courses through Mumbai University Distance Learning
Computer Science consists of two types
of specializations viz. computer software and computer hardware.
There is a variety of Computer Science courses available at
Government as well as Private Schools or Universities. One need
not be highly qualified or exceptional in academic. He can be a
Metric pass or an engineer and either ways he can pursue the course
in Computer Science.
The courses range from Graphic
Designing to CAD to ERP. For those already following a full-time
career, technological advancements have enabled interested candidates
to add an extra qualification through Computer Science Distance
Learning.
Various Universities in India offer off-campus Distance
Learning that is conducted as Continuing Education for full-time
employees. Some of the Universities offering a UG / PG qualification
in Computer Science are:
Indian Institute of Management in Technology
IIT (Degree in Information Technology offered through Distance Education

Courses in Computer Science Distance Learning are either purely
Correspondence or Part-time. In case of the latter, theory and practical
classes might be conducted on weekends when most employees are off.
Classes for students staying in distant places can attend the class
in the regional Centers. The mentoring and control of Programmes
is supervised and maintained by the Centre by regular visits and
continuous feedback from students. Study material is provided at
regular intervals in synch with the revised syllabi.
IT is a booming field today. Countries like US and Australia are
on a shopping spree for intellectual and deserving candidates with
work-ex and IT skills. In fact a huge number of Computer students
have made a lucrative career abroad. So if a deserving candidate
with sufficient work-ex can manage to earn a Computer Science degree
even via Distance Learning, it can make a huge difference in his
life.
