IGNOU School of Continuing Education
The School of Continuing Education, starting from rural development and women’s education related programmes has in the process of its growth identified certain important areas of concern and addressed them through a number of programmes such as Rural Development, Child Development, Disability, Youth and Development Work, Nutrition, Food Safety and Dietetics. Most of these areas qualified for an individual discipline status.
With the establishment of new Schools a number of programmes who were housed in SOCE were relocated to the respective Schools. Accordingly, Post Graduate Diploma in Journalism and Mass Communication was relocated to the School of Journalism and Media Studies and BSW, MSW, CAFÉ and DAFE to the School of Social Work.
