MESSAGE FROM THE VICE-CHANCELLOR
Dear Learners, Greetings!. We are very happy to invite the learners to join Distance Education Programme of SASTRA University. We have established Directorate of Distance Education to provide high quality Distance Education to those who are not able to enter the portals of conventional education system. SASTRA University has always been in the forefront of higher education and all our professional programmes offered through conventional mode have got recognition and national acclaim. This is possible because of qualified faculty members and excellent infrastructural facilities at SASTRA.
‘Education for All’ is our watchword. So we have decided to take education to far reaching areas. Such an effort is possible only through Distance Mode of Education. The Directorate of Distance Education at SASTRA will address the individual needs of the learner. We are aware that self-learning is the most suitable mode for a distance learner. To facilitate this with professional competence we have adopted Self-Instructional Material (SIM) pattern for selected programmes. This University adopts flexible admission policy, cost-effective programme fee, study centre facility and academic inputs from experienced faculty. Multimedia facilities are also available with us to enhance self-learning.
SASTRA University through Distance Education is committed to help the learner in fulfilling his or her educational aspirations and hence we welcome the learner. We believe in participatory approach and hence learning would be at once beneficial and fruitful. ‘Compensate for missed opportunities in learning and enable career development of all’ is our motto.
Prof. R. Sethuraman Vice-chancellor

Self - Instructional Materials (SIM): Printed materials for both theory and practical components .
•
Contact programmes: They are arranged by the University at the study centers. (The study centre details will be informed after admission)
