RADIO Programme 'Shiksha Barta' Contributor-Dr Ridip Dev Choudhury, Dean, Study Centre (I/C), KKHSOU
Watch on YouTubeVideo summary
Dr. Ridip Dev Choudhury, Dean (In-Charge) of the Study Centre at Krishnakonda State Open University (KHSOU), discusses the university's admission process for its upcoming academic sessions covering July to August and January to February. He clarifies that while there have been extensions granted by the UGC Distance Education Bureau regarding application deadlines, the core structure remains divided into two distinct sessions. The institution currently offers a wide range of programs totaling 77 courses across undergraduate, postgraduate, diploma, and certificate levels. A significant portion of these offerings focuses on science subjects like Physics and Chemistry at both Bachelor's and Master's degrees, alongside specialized fields such as Library and Information Science (MLIS) and Mathematics, which are being introduced or expanded to meet growing student demand through a conventional mode where feasible.
A major highlight of the discussion is Dr. Choudhury's initiative to transition certain programs from purely distance learning to include limited seats in a regular classroom setting at specific study centers like Khanapara and Rani campuses. He explains that while some science Master's degrees have been running for years, new approvals are being sought for MSc Physics, Chemistry, and B.Sc Mathematics to accommodate students who prefer direct interaction with faculty. The admission process has been modernized through an online portal where applicants can upload documents and make payments digitally; however, challenges remain regarding the distribution of physical study materials like Self-Learning Materials (SLM) or PDF versions for remote learners in areas without reliable internet access. To bridge this gap, the university is actively utilizing social media platforms with over 25,000 subscribers to disseminate information and support students who may face technical difficulties during registration.
The transcript also addresses the implementation of National Education Policy (NEP) guidelines within KHSOU's curriculum structure, offering significant flexibility in duration for undergraduate degrees. Students can now choose between a three-year general degree or a four-year honors program that includes research components, allowing them to exit with a diploma after two years if they wish to enter the workforce early without completing the full master's level requirements. Dr. Choudhury emphasizes that this system provides multiple pathways for career progression, where students can complete their Bachelor's in three years and subsequently pursue an MA or PhD based on their research interests and academic goals. He assures prospective learners of continuous support through online counseling sessions, video lectures via the Learning Management System (LMS), and dedicated faculty members who are available to clear doubts regarding course content, eligibility criteria, and examination procedures for both NP-compliant and non-NP courses.

about 8000 more students have already
completed the online process various stages of the process of uploading documents the last thing that I need to do online payment I have
seen them very much I have seen more that
my conventional students my college
students
After completing the degree, I have done the master's degree, which
means I have done MA or MSc,
and the one who has
passed the higher secondary undergraduate
program has done the BA B.Com B.Sc.
Now, since I have
better news, my science
subject has been given [clearing throat]
Science is a subject with my hands.
I want to
tell you that actually, I will
start a program, I will apply to the UGC
Distance Education Bureau, University
Grants Commission, I will apply online, I will apply
in a specific process, I will apply, there are many norms, after that,
these are verified
by the expert committee and the
interface meeting is held online in the episode log, my
university authorities, UGC
Distance Education, result interface meeting, all
kinds of rules and regulations, if
I think that I am eligible, I will
offer this program to the person who is eligible for
my UG or PG program field.
This time, I have set a goal that I am a science
akasha dramatist, already my MSc in
Information Technology MSc IT program is
running for you, I have already been running for
two years, I have MSc in Mathematics, I
got approval, I got it very well, on top of that,
this time I decided that I will
apply for MSc in Physics, MSc in Chemistry, Master of Library in Information Science, BSc in Mathematics, this program is Pita, I will apply, I
applied, among these different levels, I was
surprised that UGC Distance
Education has given permission to start this program for almost this academic year, this is the
science base program, which is MSc in
Physics, MSc Chemistry, I have one
rule, UGC Distance Education follows that
conventional mode, this program will last for seven years, it is
already running, I
can give it to that, except my headquarters,
headquarters, my tenka has not been written,
I am my Jibila clinic There are 43 study
centers in Goti Akham and many of them are already
affiliated colleges of various universities.
Then I have
identified some of them and contacted them
in the next seven or 10 days. I will make my
portal available. The
study centers will be very limited and I will give a
large number of students. I will give a program in
conventional mode. If the capacity
as a study center is very small, I will not give a maximum.
My university has Khanapara campus and
Rani campus.
First, I did Master in Physics, MSc in
Physics, MSc in Chemistry. I started
studying abroad at these study centers. I have
given very limited seats. My university
authorities have given me first class service. There are
eligibility criteria.
I have started and I am going to go.
I definitely want to do
B.Sc.
Physics or B.Sc. Chemistry.
Regular conventional mode is
very good because there are limited seats. I am behind in reading percentage
because I am doing MA in Physics and Chemistry. I
cannot fulfill the gap that I have in five and a half
years in many colleges. My
program is going on. Physics Chemistry
Master's degree is going on. I have completed it in a year.
Price is 25. College is going on for five and a half years.
I am already a study center. My study center is going to be a study center.
But due to the criteria, I am not able to get
admission.
I
have students in the source of education. I can teach Physics and Chemistry. I
can also teach Master of
Librarian Information Science. Since
you are in
MLISC program for one year,
its eligibility criteria are BLIS. I will have to
pass
this year's curriculum. I am a study
center. I am a study center in the district of
Kamrup Metro under the
university. I
have a campus in Khanapara. I have
applied online as a model study center.
I have enabled admission. This is
a question that I will do business because of that. I have a
jury who can be any
university campus if I
select a study center, I need to
go or pay for classes, I
do the mechanism that the admission lot is
because I have enrolled in the study center,
I have selected the current group that I
will take admission, the last date of admission, which is the group
I am a group or I do Telegram group,
every program I do, I follow my
group, I do more, my
concern discipline subject, my education
teacher is connected, I mean
because of communicating and this process is like a
pen, I get support from
my university faculty, I can do online
classes and e-resources, if I
do video lectures, I can do counseling classes, I can do
online agency, I do a job, I
miss classes because I have flexible learning,
open and distance and flexible
learning flexibility, I
already started I have done the process,
my university has a learning
management system called LMS, I
get admission, I give the student a username and password, they
log in to Facebook,
I
send the username and password to them, they log in, I
upload the teacher's profile to my faculty profile, I create video lectures or
tutorials, or any other kind of
learning resources, I give home assignments
or support, I do it in the
online era, I give
exams in advance
[clears throat]
but
I don't give exams, I have an exam center, I
communicate, if there is only
practical exams, because if there are practical exams,
I communicate when the
home district becomes a study center,
how can I become an exam center, I
arrange to give more B.Sc. Mathematics, this is a
very worldly program, it has been launched now,
I am the current study center, my
university is in Khanapara campus, I am
different, he is a study center, I am
Coordinator Principal of I am communicating that
any
college will run this program. It takes 10 plus
to pass. More
mathematics subjects will be required. I will be
able to do B.Sc. There are many science students. At
once, I think it is a comprehensive one. I
mean, it is a very nice step. My
question is almost something. Library
Science is
my subject. I want to do a new diploma. I want to do a
direct master's degree. What is the
eligibility criteria? I will apply for my
approval. According to the
rules of UGC, if I want to
do this program, I will apply for this
account. I will search my website
as HSU on Google. I will
write the abbreviation of KHSOU in full. I will search
or
type KHSOU in the login. I will
open my website. I am
sorry.

Complete the name of the procedure, the last one is the payment option, which is to go to
online payment, my cash transaction is
absolutely the payment option,
when the admission [ __ ] payment
receipt is

number two, I have done the payment, I have completed the payment, I have
downloaded the admission receipt, I have the option to log in,
select the
compulsory paper, there is a
paper according to my
choice,
hard copy, as I have less SLM self-learning
materials, as my books are less, if
any student studies or goalpara studies
or karba door studies in my
university, as the record comes
after the admission, I can send it to Tel, I have also
selected the study center in the study
center log,
after having the study material of my university, I send it to Tel
and this takes about 15 minutes in the court,
I arrange that To complete the admission, you have
selected the
electronic version,
I say ESLM or PDF version,
which I select, which means available to me,
my university website,
I make it available, ESLM or PDF,
which I download, but it is very difficult for
me to arrange that the students choose the
student to complete the admission, log in,
log in, log in, enable, filter,
where it takes,
download, hard copy, study, time, admission
is
student study, although I really want to
arrange it immediately, but it is a little
late, I do it,

medium that I get You will get the information on
your gate today through the program. All
students or wherever I have an audience, I want to
let everyone know that I
use various social media to communicate with my students digitally through technology. My
university now has a page. There is a Facebook page. If you
search for the page Krishnakonda State Open University, you will
find that it has over 25,000 subscribers.

[clearing throat]
I technology I am at
different stages since my education
is connected I continue
more my education is very good I got it good because of that,
because of that, the previous record
comparison, there is no big deal, because I have lost a lot, because I am a
teacher myself, because of that
interest in this student,
because it has made you suffer, because I bought it,
I have more Hajj
and admission related, where is the learner
support account, I have different plans, I have
no control today, I do not understand what I mean, I will
understand the student a little, but I am a
university graduate, I am
trying my best, because my students have
different
stages, and because
the number of conventional students has increased a little, the percentage has increased, it is
very limited,
because of PG, because of 70%, 80%,
but since I have
my degree from the Open University
and the certificate from the Conventional University,
my value is already useful. The
followers say that there is no play at
all, it is a field or a
field, since there is a lot of it, the
students have realized the arrival question more easily. It is
not a little or a lot of
fields. The students themselves should communicate in pre-admission counseling.
It is as if
thousands of students have registered,
some students or thousands of students have
completed it, and let's say
thousands of students have already completed it.
How can I have doubts? So I have online meetings regularly. I interact with them.
I get a lot. There are
various means for communicating. I send SMS. I let them communicate. I
tell them that
wherever there is doubt, wherever there is doubt, I will
clear it. I will give the
next step.
I will give the system.
[Blowing nose]
[Clearing throat] But
my name is NP. Under. Does NP.
Non-NP students have given the results of the exam? I will
play very very easy
technical time NP many or
not
student code you get as much as I
buy this learner that register many you are ahead of the student
that undergraduate
program or degree program degree
UG program he year
it NP Mari year
that he year this year
actually NP flexibility
flexibility no know anything that I know that since
I am blessed different
universities or colleges NEP has been implemented.
I also implemented 2023 above. I'll go to the
Undergraduate Program Admissions Office and
see if it's a four-year
program. I'll be able to
transport it for three years, I'll say. If a
student
thinks that after completing two semesters, he will
get a more continuous job, then the rest is up to him. If you also
apply to university, it's
complete. I will
get the certificate now
because I did not complete the certificate before, if any student
completes the goal, I
will get the certificate now, if I complete two semesters,
if I complete the whole semester
or complete two years, if someone thinks
that if someone applies, I will
complete the
diploma, if
he completes six semesters, if he completes
all courses, all papers, if he
thinks that he completes the diploma, he does not complete the
master's degree or
various competitive exams, I will prepare for the
degree certificate, if
someone exits, if someone applies and exits, he will get the
degree, that is, the
general general means UG degree, I will get BA,
B.Com. GN, if any other brother completes two more
semesters, I will get the honors degree, this is the
story, I have completed the certificate in three years,
which year I will complete the
degree certificate in total,
more profit in the year, if he
gets the normal general degree in honors, he will complete the year,
if he thinks that he should do the MA post The
reason for graduating is that if I get three years, I will continue it. I will
find a little bit of a dilemma. The curriculum that
I am currently pursuing is two years. If I have a
three-year degree, I will say that it takes
two years. If I have a three-year degree, I will do a master's degree. It takes a total of five years.
If I do the number of NPs in a row for
three years, I will exit. If
you are here,
I will talk about NP. I will do a little bit of
flexibility. NAP's media is there.
If there is
good research, there are different honors,
three plus two PGs to complete three years. It takes a
year to complete a
master's degree.
This year, the government has launched a
notification that the preparation is one year for
MA or PG, because of which I will
complete a year in a row. Because of these people, I will do a
master's degree for one year. A
student who has completed three years of NP and exits, after completing three years, I will continue after that. I will
get this year, I will do
three plus two, I will do PG for two years, I will
complete the NP degree in a row, I will do NP
this year, I will do total 3 plus tof plus one
and I mean, since there is one thing that my
university has non-NP
students, what
happened this time, I want to ask you personally about the fourth semester non-NP
exam
because during my exam, I see
[clearing my throat] question paper bill, it
means NP, non-NP new course, it
means [clearing my throat] there
are some questions in this, write the answer,
okay, now you have given the matter,
but I don't understand who to give it to, if I get it, I will
write NP questions, yes, you take it, it means that I will get a degree, I will
pass my NP master's degree, I will get a degree and I don't have
any promotion or any
event, you ask me very well, because I
ask you I asked the question very early
on, so I know that I studied for three years, I studied for a
degree for two years, followed by a master's degree. They
gave new students the option to study consecutive years. It is
not mandatory. They gave flexibility. If you go for
one year, you will get a certificate for two
years. If you go for it, you will
get a diploma. After three years, you will graduate. You will
get a UG. If you were a general student,
you will get an honors degree for four years. What will be the
benefit of doing it this year? Hey, I
mean, after a master's degree, I
can do a PhD, but this year I will do a degree. There is an
option to do a PhD. Here, my university has
given me honors, but there is a component called research. I
mean, consecutive years with research. If there is an
option to do a PhD, but my university has a
four-year honors program. You may have
honors. My PhD
program is a little bit similar to my master's degree program. I mean,
with my university, I do honors. I mean,
where, although the purpose of admission is to make a name,
I talk but different types of questions are
certainly given. I will get it
and you
want the program, I have a little live and a little
episode, I will definitely give my
social media I will
send the car. In
this life, admission is daily. Then I will go back
15 days. Since I am
interested in my university admission, I will have to study. I will ask for the last date.
That means every counseling, every student,
every student, who is less than their
own, I
invite you all to promote this
program as much as possible. My university
name is being filled. Meanwhile, my
university is filling its name. And my
university is going to fill its
program. Goodbye, goodbye.
Thank you and I am in the
middle of various words.
