    This is a very good university for the rural development course.
    Placements: There are placements under the ministry of rural development at state and centre. At present, there are lots of chances for jobs in rural development and PhDs in rural development are also very useful for the candidates. IGNOU is the best choice for this course in the distance education. Head of the departments conduct the seminars and other events.
    Infrastructure: There are many regional centres in every highly populated city, and these are useful for the students regarding of the classrooms, the library, etc. These regional centres are nearer to the students in the regional areas as they are very useful to communicate with the university.
    Faculty: The professors are very well knowledgeable persons. They are very well used with the subject matter. They also provide their contact numbers for the students to clarify their doubts. This is a two-year course. The faculty is always there for the students to help them.
