Hello,

As per 2021- 22 reports Karnataka State Open University (KSOU) is recognised by UGC. KSOU has lost recognition with UGC from 2012 so the degree is not valid for job application.

An official note issued by UGC’s Distance Education the KSOU has been granted permission to run the courses from the academic year 2018-2019 to 2022-2023.

As KSOU (Karnataka State Open University) has Affiliations like ACU, AIU, AAOU, CoL  and is also approved by UGC. The degree is valid for all government and non government purpose in india and abroad.

Degree is not fake. Karnataka State Open University offers b.tech courses along with other degree courses.
