Distance/Correspondence

Hi Surekha,
The universities, colleges, and institutes all of them providing education but the only difference is that basic difference is that universities provide depth knowledge while institutes provide applied knowledge, but the motive of all the three University vs College vs Institute is same. Getting a degree from a university is more valuable than getting a Certificate from an institute. Having said that there are many good institutes in India / abroad which are more popular than universities. For Distant Learning (if this is higher education (PG) to enhance career further - Institute is good). But, it all depends on the course you are trying to apply for.

At BIT Mesra, the Department of Computer Science & Engineering was established in the year 1983 and is now recognized as one of the leading departments with infrastructure and facilities to match the very best in the country. The department remains committed towards its mission, which is twofold. One is to provide students with the fundamental knowledge and problem solving skills in Computer Science required for a fulfilling career. The other goal is to create and disseminate knowledge to improve Computer Science research, education and practice. The department has academic collaborations with University of New Brunswick, Canada, University of Melbourne, Australia and University of Manitoba, Canada.
