A Brief ProfileThe Directorate of Correspondence Courses and Distance Education of Bangalore University was established in 1976. In the beginning, it was offering only a few external courses. Over the years, it has grown to incorporate both correspondence courses and open university schemes and through these, it offers undergraduate and postgraduate courses, postgraduate diplomas and certificate courses.

The Directorate in collaboration with M/s. APTECH Ltd., also offers a three-year (six semester) Bachelor of Computer Applications course in the distance education mode. The Directorate is making all efforts to meet all the requirements of distance education and to democratize higher education. Thus, the Directorate is catering to the public who could not pursue their studies in regular courses, under two schemes - Correspondence Scheme and Distance Education Scheme. The former directors of the Directorate Sri. L. Surya Prasad, Sri B.G. Mahesh and Prof. M.Khajapeer have made substantial contributions for the growth of the Directorate.
