If I do a B.A in Psychology from IGNOU, is this degree recognised for taking up M.Phil in psychology. I wish to become a counsellor. Will B.A in Psychology from IGNOU help me to achieve that and how? I heard that the new education policy doesnt recognise graduation based on distance learning program
Hello,
There is no such mention in the proposed policy of NEP if that's what you'e referring as in no recognition in courses being pursued through distance mode, if that was the case then by now admission won't be taking place in IGNOU as of now, see the world today has become digitized in larger context, yes there are still remote areas which don't have accessibility to this, but we cannot deny that digital education has taken precedence, more so due to pandemic and in this context only, education earned through distance mode if it's from a recognized university , then it matters, so a graduation degree in psychology will open doors for you to appear for various government exams in case you're interested as well as pursue higher studies, however one thing important to tell you is that in the proposed NEP Policy it has been mentioned about discontinuation of MPhil programs and PhD will be existing like always.
