The Mission of the Institute of Open and Distance Learning is to expand access to education by offering alternative to those qualified applicants who are unable to enroll for full time programmes, and those who for various reasons, prefer the convenience and ease of studying from home.
The University regards each student as a unique individual who brings to the learning environment certain strengths and ideals. It is the role of the University to assist students to actualize their strengths. The University ensures that the educational experience of students is to produce productive graduates who can contribute positively to the overall well being of society. Holistic development and a strong, positive intellectual development is what the University strives to inculcate in each student and stimulate general awareness in this era.
Excellence, academic freedom, professionalism, creativity, innovation, truth, self-reliance, equal opportunity,relevance and moral integrity are our core values.
In the past decade, distance education has become an increasingly popular way for colleges to provide access to their programmes and for students to learn about topics and get Degrees they might not otherwise be able to pursue, it occurs when there is a separation between the Instructor and the Student, usually due to geographical or time concerns that prevent the student from attending an on-campus course. These programs have usually been specially designed to help best meet the needs and requirements that arise when learning is taking place outside of a traditional classroom setting.
Distance learning makes it much easier for some students to complete a degree or get additional job-training while balancing work and family commitments. Because the hours when class work can be completed are flexible, as most distance learning programs allow students to work at their own pace and on their own time, many students can complete their work during times when they are free, rather than scheduling their lives around a set classroom time. With more flexibility comes more responsibility on the part of the learner. Students must learn to work well independently and without the constant guidance and monitoring of an instructor, making distance learning a challenge for those who are not easily self-motivated.
To respond to societal needs and to overcome many of the academic challenges, Kampala International University in Tanzania has committed itself to providing the very best In Distance Learning programmes. We therefore, invite you to check out our current course offerings.
