Answered Questions

Karnataka State Open University - [KSOU]: 5 answered questions

What is the quality of education provided at Karnataka State Open University (KSOU)?

Tamaghna Basu,

27 Oct 21

KSOU is known to make a good effort in providing proper education to the students unable to join a regular program. But the quality of education provided by them will differ from any regular program.

The student-teacher interaction is hampered along with the peer-to-peer relationship. Communicating directly with the teacher and students is much better than online lectures. This might be one of the reasons why distance education has very low credibility for job prospects.

But for the students who are unable to join a regular course due to other priorities like a job or other responsibilities, attending online programs gives them an opportunity to learn about the subject.
Karnataka State Open University will provide study materials and their online lectures will be of great help.

Is there any chance of jobs in MNCs or other private companies for the freshers who had completed their B.Tech degrees from open universities like YCMOU or KSOU without any experience?

Rati Tiwari,

27 Oct 21

Securing a job after completing a B.Tech degree from open universities can depend on a lot of things. If it is only based on the degree it could be difficult.

If you want to go for MNCs you have to start by joining smaller organizations and start-ups. Here you can have the chance of getting hired based on your knowledge and skills. Try to improve your writing skills, communication skills, aptitude skills, etc.

Practice mock interviews, get familiar with all the current trends and topics. Prepare for questions like “Where do you see yourself in 5 years?” etc.

Improve your domain knowledge, practical knowledge, keep yourself updated and familiar with the recent trends in interviews. Learn from your peers and how they approach the interviews. More practice will increase your chances of getting a job.

Is it good to do a BBA from an open university run by a state government like KSOU and TNOU to get in a better college in the future for studying an MBA?

Krunal Saha,

27 Oct 21

Joining an MBA college does not usually depend on a student graduating with a regular course or correspondence course. But if you are not from a regular course, you tend to miss a lot of experiences which are only possible in a college atmosphere.

During your interview for admission in an MBA course, you will be asked why you opted for this rather than a regular college. You might have to put some more focus on extracurriculars as they will also come in handy during your selection.

Your selection will only be considered if there are not many students from regular courses applying for MBA. It is a very rare situation, and you should not depend on it.

It is suggested that you go for correspondence BBA or any graduate course. Join the full-time program and get familiar with the classroom environment. Symbiosis or Manipal is recommended for BBA as they are more reputed colleges than state Universities.

Is a B.Tech degree from KSOU acceptable to foreign universities for an MS?

Vishal Sharma,

27 Oct 21

Yes, a B.Tech degree from Karnataka State Open University (KSOU) is acceptable to foreign universities. As KSOU is recognized by UGC and the degree is valid for applying to foreign universities.

But, various countries have different rules and regulations, criteria, etc. for the recognition of universities. Most of the popular foreign universities have certain standards. Therefore, your statement of purpose, your academic record, your age, financial status, etc. will play an important role in the final admission.

Which company accept KSOU Bachelor degree?

Tamalika Datta,

27 Oct 21

This will depend on certain factors like the type of degree, the country, the location the company is based in, and other such things.

There are some companies that hire without a degree, some hire if you have a related degree from an accredited school, some will hire only graduates of known-excellent schools, etc.

Try checking beforehand the requirements of certain companies and then go for the appropriate degree.
