Silver Jubilee Inaugural Addresson
19th November, 2009 at IGNOU Campus
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am pleased to inaugurate the Silver Jubilee Celebrations of the Indira Gandhi National Open
University established in the memory of Late Prime Minister, Smt. Indira Gandhi.
On her birth anniversary today, it is her deep commitment to the development of the country and
to the upliftment of those living in poverty that one recalls as her distinguishing hallmark. She
viewed education as a liberating force, which while enabling individuals to earn a living would also
make them capable citizens and therefore, wanted that education should reach all people in the
country. She had faith in the power of technology to contribute to this. She said, and I quote,
“Communication technology frees the entire concept of education from its previous limit of time and
space ... we can reach out to the remotest places and to the best minds that exist. We do not have
all of it yet in India, but I sincerely hope that we will have it soon and that this will help our education
to be more broad-based and deeper”. India has now emerged as a leader in IT and we must
use its potential to the fullest, to spread education and knowledge. Indeed, the mission of
IGNOU, founded in 1985, is to make knowledge and skills available to anybody, anywhere,
anytime. I wish everyone associated with IGNOU every success in this noble endeavour.
IGNOU has grown in the 25 years of its existence. It has over 15 per cent of all learners enrolled
in higher education in the country and offers a wide range of programmes and courses through
its vast network of learning centres across the country. Its Regional Centres can play a very
important role in reducing disparities in education by extending education opportunities in
villages and remote areas. While expanding its coverage and as part of its continuing effort to
improve its teaching platform, I am told, that IGNOU has started a “convergence scheme” bringing
together the strengths of face-to-face conventional education and the flexibility of open and
( iii )
distance learning. It is institutions that seek to excel that constantly work to upgrade their
facilities and incorporate good practices.
The importance of education cannot be over emphasized. It is a very powerful tool for empowering
people and for giving them self-dignity. It becomes even more important for a nation like ours that
is in the process of harnessing its human resources for rapid economic growth. Today, we need
more children in school and more of them to go on to higher education. Proper training,
provisioning of skills sets and capacity building of its population are tools which shall make our
human resources competent and confident to face the new set of challenges of a fast changing
world.
Nations with high quality human resources would be counted amongst the front ranking nations of
the world in the knowledge era. Aristotle, the ancient Greek philosopher, once remarked that the
fate of nations.depends on the education of its youth. Therefore, reaching education to young
girls and boys must occupy a foremost position on our agenda, if we are to be firmly positioned
as one of the leading nations of the world. That is why Government has made education a priority
sector. Free education to children between the ages 6 and 14 years is - now a fundamental right.
The Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan seeks to achieve universal secondary education by the
year 2017. The Gross Enrollment Ratio or GER in India in higher education is very low as
compared to the world average. Strenuous efforts are required to reach our goal of enhancing
GER in India to 20 per cent by 2020. A massive expansion in higher education through new
institutions is also underway, alongwith efforts to improve educational standards, including through
undertaking structural reforms in the higher education system and using all available methods to
spread education. The National Mission on Education through Information Communication
Technology launched in February this year will create internet connectivity to about 20,000 colleges
and educational institutions. This initiative will, I am confident bring in the use of modern
technology in higher education in a more widespread manner.
While broadbasing access to education is important, one must not lose sight of the utmost
importance which should be paid to the quality of education being given to students and the need
for equity. This should start from the primary level itself. Government has been, therefore,
emphasizing and is committed to providing good quality education to all students, especially
those from the underprivileged sections. The spread of education amongst women is also very
important. By spreading education amongst them, not only is an individual educated, but rather
the seeds of progress of the next generation are planted.
The Open University System being flexible and innovative can be useful for a wide section of
society and should help in improving skills sets. Enhancing the skill sets of the workforce in the
country is a challenge. Only 5 per cent of the workforce in India has some kind of certification.
This is in contrast to over 85 per cent in the developed countries. Encouragement of work-
integrated learning followed by examination, certification and accreditation through distance
education will be of help. However, to make it effective there would be a need for active two way
( iv )
collaboration with industry and other players. I believe that Open Universities should also generate
a movement in the rural areas that will impel people to acquire knowledge and skills for self-
empowerment. In this context, educational programmes like the Gyan Darshan Channel of IGNOU,
which is reaching over 8 million homes, can be useful in motivating people.
Distance education offers an opportunity to those already in employment to upgrade their
knowledge base, so that they can more effectively contribute to the productivity of work in their
organizations. Studying, while in employment, also offers opportunities for enhancement of career
opportunities. I am, therefore, happy that IGNOU and the Indian Army have decided to work
together to create a process of certification of higher education of soldiers. Till now the skills that
the Army personnel acquired while in service were not reflected through any formal degrees
awarded to them. I am happy that through this new collaboration, they will get appropriate
certification. This can be helpful in their work and to start a new professional life at the end of
their careers in the Army. I therefore, welcome this new initiative and am pleased to dedicate Gyan
Deep to the nation. Similarly, the Flexi Learn Platform which has also been launched today is
significant as it provides an opportunity for prospective learners to sample a course before
enrolling and thereby, help them in choosing appropriate courses and programmes.
I am happy that IGNOU is taking up new initiatives during its Silver Jubilee Year. From this year
onwards, the Rajiv Gandhi International Prize for Technology in Education and Development has
been instituted by the University. The Prize would be given to an individual or an institution that has
made significant contributions to educational technology, for development in the developing world.
I congratulate the officials and the staff of IGNOU who have contributed over the last quarter
century to the growth of the University. I hope that as the Silver Jubilee is celebrated, new
initiatives will be thought of in the time ahead, so that more and more of our population will be
covered by distance education. This will be the mission for which I am sure IGNOU shall work
for in all earnestness.
I would also like to convey my good wishes to Shri Kapil Sibal, Union, Minister for Human
Resource Development and Smt. Purandeshwari, Union Minister of State for HRD for success
in their work in the education sector.
Thanking you,
Jai Hind

Message from the Vice-Chancellor
Dear Learner,
Silver Jubilee Greetings to all of you.
I have great pleasure in presenting you the Prospectus for Academic Session January 2011 of the
Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) for various certificate, diploma, degree, post-
graduate and doctoral research programmes. This National University, established by an Act of
Parliament in 1985, has provided opportunities for over 2.5 millions of learners to acquire a
university certification, gainful employment, workplace education and career progression. The
university is a success story in democratization of education IGNOU recognizes the importance
of sustainable and affordable high quality programmes and courses across disciplines, and at a
variety of levels to meet the life-long education, training, capacity building and public service
needs of anyone, anytime and anywhere. The university values the appropriate use of Information
and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and the satellite media to enhance the quality of
teaching-learning process. The self-learning and self-instructional materials developed by IGNOU
have earned world-wide recognition.
On November 19th, the Foundation Day, Her Excellency President of India, Smt Pratibha
Devisingh Patil, inaugurated the Silver Jubilee initiatives of IGNOU. All its Schools, Divisions,
Centres, Units and Regional Centres have taken up a slew of activities to promote education and
domain knowledge, thereby, development. A number of landmark initiatives have been launched
by Her Excellency. These include : The Gyan Deep — which is an IGNOU-Indian Army move to
ensure second employment of the army personnel after their superannuation – a project which the
President dedicated to the nation, Flexi-Learning portal and Higher Education Management
modules, institution of Raman Chair in Science Education, ISRO Chair in Satellite Education and
Rajiv Gandhi International Prize for Educational Technology & Development.
These apart, IGNOU has also started some trend-setting initiatives, such as Community College
Scheme which will further facilitate the Skill Development Initiative (SDI) of the Government of
India and Dual Mode of Education through Convergence of Conventional Collegiate education and
Open and Distance Learning (ODL).
IGNOU is committed to quality education, teaching and capacity building of yours through the
ODL pedagogy driven by ICTs. The self-learning study materials have been offered to you in such
excellence that you can prepare yourselves easily and feel as if your teachers are seated beside
you.( vi )
These efforts are supported by personal contacts with experts in the subjects in your Study
Centres so that your academic problems are easily solved. Quite often the University organises
interactive videoconferencing with learners. Care for learners’ education is best taken at IGNOU
even as it is in the ODL mode.
In another trend-setting initiative in India, IGNOU has launched ‘Student Satisfaction Survey’ for
you. The survey will try to quantify your basic understanding of concepts related to the chosen
subjects and whether the learning materials and academic counselling provided by IGNOU are
able to clarify these concepts. The survey aims to assess students’ satisfaction levels specifically
in such areas as quality of printing, learning materials like video/audio, organisation of academic
sessions, performance of academic counsellors, IGNOU staff in the regional centres and whether
the learning materials are received by students on time. You can send your feedback by
clicking on the link ‘Student Satisfaction Survey’ on the home page of the IGNOU website

2.10 Master of Arts in Gender andDevelopment Studies [MA(GD)]
The programme is likely to be of interest to academicsand researchers; trainers, facilitators, supervisors;staff of organizations working in the area of genderand development; government personnel; personnelworking in banks financial institutions.
Development policies and practices have a differentialimpact on women and men. This necessitates anunderstanding of the “gender gap” in access to resources,privileges, entitlements and choices. Consensus has evolvedaround the need to explore the “gender gap” in keydevelopment sectors and how this gap can be bridged. Thereis now greater emphasis on main-streaming genderperspectives into the development process. This willcontribute to building a gender-sensitive rubric ofdevelopment, recasting development theory and action inthe “direction of improved living standards, socially
122 IGNOU Common Prospectus
responsible management and use of resources,elimination of gender subordination and socioecono micinequality as well as to promote the organizationalrestructuring required to bring about desirable change.”
Exploration of gender issues has become an importantactivity for most non- governmental organizations.Increasing emphasis is being laid in Governmentalagencies on establishing gender-differential impactsand taking positive, affirmative action towards genderequality and equity. It is now widely acknowledgedthat gender considerations need to be reflected in alldevelopment plans, programmes and policies. Thereis growing concern over the isolation of women in so-called “soft” sectors in education, employment anddevelopment rather than mainstreaming genderconcerns across all organizations, institutions andactivities. While the concerns are clearly articulated,national goals and the UN millennium developmentgoals cannot be achieved without concrete efforttowards gender equality.
Achieving gender equality and gender equity requiresmulti-pronged approaches and strategies. One of thekey approaches and strategies revolves around designand development of suitable educational programmesthat equip practitioners and policy makers with therequisite knowledge and skills to make a valuablecontribution in this sphere. The Master’s/ PostgraduateDiploma programmes would make an excellentfoundation for analyzing, critically assessing existingdevelopment interventions and promoting gender-sensitive/gender-based research and action. Thestrong focus envisaged on positive affirmative actionwould be of considerable significance.
Programme ObjectivesThe programmes seek to enable learners to: analyze extent of gender-sensitivity of
development interventions; conduct gender analysis; critically analyze gender differentials in selected
development sectors; identify appropriate research designs and
methodologies for a range of research problems; suggest positive affirmative action in development
planning and practice to promote gender equityand equality

Total 68Selection Criteria : Selection for B.Sc. Nursing (PostBasic) programme is by merit. The merit is workedout on the basis of giving 80% weightage to the totalmarks obtained in General Nursing and Midwifery(RNRM) and one mark for each year of experience innursing over and above the years of experiencerequired for eligibility for admission subject to amaximum of 20 marks.
For example
(Based on this example you may calculate your merit)
An applicant scoring 700 out of 1200 marks in GeneralNursing and Midwifery Marks Sheet and having sevenyears of experience, the merit will be calculated asfollows:
a) Calculation for Marks
Percentage of marks = 700/1200 × 100 = 58.33
b) 80% weightage = 46.66
c) Calculation for Experience
i) An applicant with 10+2+GNM with 7 years ofexperience will get a credit of 5 years. Hence5marks will be added in the marks.
So; the Total marks of this candidate will bea+b (i) 46.66 + 5 (Years of experience) =51.66 Marks.
ii) An applicant with 10+GNM with 7 years ofexperience will get a credit of 2 years. Hence2 marks.
So; the total marks of this candidate will be
a+b (ii) = 46.66 + 2 (Years of experience) =48.66 Marks.
You may calculate your own marks as per theexample given under c) i).
MARKS OF EXPERIENCE ARE CALCULATED OVER ANDABOVE THE MINIMUM EXPERIENCE REQUIRED FORELIGIBILITY TO ADMISSION.
Eligible candidates for B.Sc. Nursing (Post Basic) mustfill up and submit along with Application Form forAdmission, Experience Certificate and CategoryCertificate as well. Experience will be counted afterthe date of registration as RNRM.
