SIU inaugurates Symbiosis School of Online and Digital Learning
The Symbiosis School of Online and Digital Learning (SSODL) was established by Symbiosis International Deemed University (SIU) to advance digital education and skill upgradation in management, technology, and the humanities. A variety of undergraduate and graduate online programmes, including the BBA, BSc in Economics, BCA, MBA, MSc in Computer Applications, MSc in Data Sciences, MSc in Economics, and MA in Mass Communication, are among those the new school hopes to offer.
The online degree accorded by SSODL is at par with the regular and offline modes. “Guided by learned academic and industry experts, the online management, technology and humanities programmes at SSODL follow a case-based learning methodology that supports self-paced learning (access to recorded sessions), without the need to visit campus. Students also get the opportunity to interact with the faculty for live lectures and discussion forums or to address any curriculum-based query,” said an official statement from SIU.
Besides, students enrolled in the online programmes will also undergo workshops and boot camps to develop entrepreneurship and leadership skills. The programmes also offer peer networking opportunities to the enrolled students to help them navigate the professional world. Further, students will undergo online assessments in an easy and accessible manner.
Raju Ganesh Sunder, Director, Symbiosis School of Online and Digital Learning said, “It brings us immense joy to present a platform for students and professionals to continue education. The online programmes have been developed by experts from the top Symbiosis institutes in India, designed in line with the regular programmes, but will be offered through online learning. Delivering digital education supported by e-content and e-tutorial, followed by discussion for peer learning and assessments will help us empower the youth of the country to unlock their career potential.”
