DDE Pondicherry University

The Pondicherry University entered in the field of Distance Education in the academic year 1995–96 to cater to the needs of the aspirant students who otherwise could not pursue higher education going to on campus academic programmes. To reach out to all those sections of students who are away from the main stream of academics, the University has conceived and offering several innovative and job-oriented academic programmes. The prime motto of the university is to ‘reach the unreached’ and thus taking higher education to the door steps of all the citizens of the nation through its distance education programmes.
