Whether Decision of UGC is justifyable for stopping Correspondence M.Phil and Phd. in Library Science
I personally feel that the decision of UGC is not justifyable for stopping Correspondence M.Phil in Library science. It can be started with the curriculam of two years and only Govt. Universities may be authorised for providing this degree but it may not be banned fully. In this way, in service professional can enhance thier education further. Please give your opinion.

I am of the opinion that stopping M.Phil & Ph.D. in LIS through correspondence is justifiable. If a student is in close contact with his research supervisor for his research work, it will be fruitful for solving his doubts and he may also add to some knowledge regarding his research work. Through correspondence it is not always possible to complete your research work in time and in desired manner. -- Manish Pandya

My dear Manish,
This is true for youngesters, but it is not possible for working people. For obtaining degree you have to leave your job and in your opinion then one can get the degree. But this intensive research work can be done by changing the curriculm at M.Phil; and Phd. level, and this can be start by part time courses where a student will remain in contact with his research supervisor for his reserach work. So I feel correspondence and part time course is necessary for working people. will you now ?
