Gujarat University’s in-charge Vice-Chancellor, Jagdish Joshi, said the expansion of online education aligns with the institution’s mission to make quality higher education accessible to all.

He said online programmes allow students to pursue higher qualifications without being restricted by fixed schedules, geographical barriers or the need to attend classes physically.

The programmes are designed to benefit working professionals, homemakers and people looking to resume their education. They also provide opportunities for learners living in remote areas and abroad to access higher education.
