IGNOU is one of the most popular open universities in India and Asia. Its primary focus is to offer regular education to those who cannot afford to attend classes regularly.  

IGNOU offers a plethora of degrees in regular mode, including programs like MPhil, MSc, and a variety of Doctorate Programs. Here are a few programs offered in regular mode:

Ph.D. in Dairy Science and Technology

Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science

Master of Philosophy in Theatre Arts

Doctor of Philosophy Computer Science

MPHIL in Chemistry

Master of Philosophy in Social Work

Integrated MSc-PhD in Physics and Astrophysics

MPHIL in Geography 

MSc in Life Science

But, to get degrees like Ph.D., Mphil, etc. students have to attend classes on a regular basis.

IGNOU did offer degrees in regular modes in the past. One of my seniors pursued her master’s degree from IGNOU on the regular campus. This was almost six years ago and the university discontinued its regular campus. It used to have three regular courses in collaboration with Madras School of Economics during that time and over 200 more other courses.

  • You can still pursue courses in the distance mode from IGNOU. The university offers regular Saturday and Sunday study sessions. Also, for science and other degree practicals, classes are regular and mandatory. 
  • For courses like Ph.D. and Hotel management, the courses offered by IGNOU are regular. According to the UGC regulation, Ph.D. degrees can not be offered in distance mode. 

IGNOU also offers coaching for the distance mode courses. But the syllabus and reference books followed for these coaching are entirely different from the regular mode courses it used to offer. The regular courses used to follow a syllabus similar to the Delhi University or Central University.
