approximate population of about 12 crores, but the
State has the lowest literacy percentage (only about
60) among the states and Union Territories of India.
As such, it is essential that Bihar makes an all out
effort to leap forward in spreading the education
and improving its performance on the literacy
front. The State has, now, about 4000 high schools,
including 10+2 schools and 14 state run universities
besides 2 Cental universities. Every year, over 16-17
7
 lakh students appear at the Secondary School
Examination and nearly 50-60% of them pass out.
However, not all of them can get accommodated
for higher education in institutions of conventional
learning. Therefore, the distance mode institutions,
like, the Nalanda Open University, have to play a
major role in meeting the aspirations of such
students, who are denied admission in conven-
tional institutions, but are still anxious to pursue
their studies at higher levels. The Nalanda Open
University provides them an alternative route to
pursue their studies through distance mode of
education.

The centres marked with asterik (*) are also
functioning as Counselling Centres.
At Counselling Centres, the counselling
classes are held as per prescribed requirement of
each programme. Every effort is made at these
conselling centres to make students understand
their subject and be familiar with their Self
Learning Materials. The University engages
subject specialists, drawn from the nearest
University/P.G. Colleges, for the counselling work.
The Counsellors, make every possible effort to
answer and address all academic queries of the
students at such centres and help them to prepare
their assignments etc.

every work place/ study centre of the University
and, as such, the Counselling Centres are permit-
ted only at such study centers where the number
of students admitted to various programmes of
the University is at least three-hundred or more.
The rest of the centres are only Study Centres
where no counselling class is held, but library and
other facilities are provided to enable the students
to study on their own and prepare for the
programme. Every Counselling-cum-Study
Centre/Study Centre of the University has been
fully equipped with reference books of the con-
cerned programmes and facilities of audio visuals

ence by the students.

and Syllabus to First Year
Students

Material (SLM) and Assignment copies/ questions
are given to all students of all programmes, free of
cost, at the time of admission itself. Students
seeking admission at the University Headquarters
are advised to collect SLM of their course from the
Universitys of Book Distribution Centres located
in the premises of Bihar State Cooperative Bank,
opposite B.N. College, Ashok Rajpath, Patna and
at Bihar Vidyapith near Kurji Hospital on Digha
Road, Patna. The students of Post Graduate
Diploma, Intermediate and certificate course will
get their study materials at the Bihar State
Copreative Bank buildings, ground floor while,
others will collect from Bihar Vidyapith. Self
Learning Material, Assignment copies /Questions
etc.will be made available to the students, seeking
admission through Study Centres of the
University, to them from the same Study Centre
from where they have purchased their admission-
form and deposited the same along with the course
fee. However, a student fail to get his/her SLM
from his/her Study Centre, for any reason by 15th
December, he/she should inform the University
from the University's book depot by producing a
letter from the concerned Study Centre to the effect
that he / she has not been given his/her SLM from
his/her study centre. University will take necessary
steps in the regard.
The Self Learning Material (SLM) has been
very carefully prepared by the learned and experi-
enced teachers. As such, SLM will, surely, be useful
in preparing the students to understand their
subjects and answer all examination related
questions. However, students are advised to scout
for more learning material by reading reference

27. Admission Procedure for 2nd and
3rd Year Students
All students, who have passed Ist or 2nd year
of the examination and have been promoted to 2nd
or 3rd year of the course, as the case may be, are
also required to get themselves admitted in the
2nd or 3rd year of the course, failing which they
will lose their entitlement to remain on the rolls of
the University and will not be permitted to appear
at the next examination. For getting admitted to
2nd or 3rd year of the study, a student will have to
do the following :
(i) He/She will have to buy the Admission form-
cum-prospectus of the concerned year from
the University's sale counter on payment of
the prescribed fee of Rs. 350.00. by Bank
Draft or by depositing the amount in the
Universitys account by Pay-in-Slip in the
Bihar State Cooperative Bank, Patna or the
Indian Bank, Main Branch, Patna. The details
of the Universitys accounts in these two
Banks, in which the amount is to be depos-
ited, are given in Para 13 of this Prospectus. It
is in students own interest that he buys the
Admission form cum Prospectus because it
is only through this document that he/she
will have access to Admission Form,
Examination Application Form, Admit Card
etc. and many other relevant information for
his/her admission to 2nd or 3rd year of the
course.
(ii) He/She must fill up the Admission cum
Registration Form (Annexure A), and
Examination Application Form (Annexure
B), given at the end of the Prospectus, and
deposit the same with the Registrar (E),
along with the prescribed course fee for 2nd
or 3rd year of the programme, as the case
may be. The course fee is to be paid by Bank
Draft draw-in favour of the Nalanda Open
University, payable at Patna. The course fee
for each programme is given in Annexure I
to which a reference should be made. The
students must complete admission process
within one month of last date of publication
of their result, failing which they may not be
admitted to appear at the examination and
the blame for this shall squarely lie on the
concerned students. The University, how-
ever, reserves the right to extend the date for
admission of 2nd/3rd year students on
payment of prescribed late fee.
(iii) Every student must deposit the course fee,
prescribed for the 2nd/3rd year of the course,
as the case may be, in full by Demand Draft,
drawn in favour of the Nalanda Open
University. This alone will entitle him/her
to appear at the ensuing examination of the
2nd / 3rd year.
(iv) All students of the 2nd and 3rd years will be
admitted only at the Universitys Head-
quarters. They are not permitted to seek
admission to 2nd/3rd year classes through
Study Centres.
28. Distribution of Examination
Admit Card, SLM etc. to 2nd and
3rd Year Students
All 2nd and 3rd year students will get their
SLM, Assignment questions-copies, Examination
Admit Card etc. from the University office only
after they have been admitted and have deposited
their course fee.
29. Provision for Failed Students
A candidate, who having completed the
course, fails to appear either at Part-I or Part-II or
Part-III examination, as the case may be, or fails to
pass the examination, may be allowed to take
subsequent examinations, on payment of pre-
scribed examination fee, without being required to
complete the course again, but such an opportunity
shall be given only in two consecutive examination
in each part, held after the examination in which
the candidate has failed or has been declared to
have failed.
Note 1: A student of any course (except student of
MILS, BLIS, Post Graduate Diploma or
Intermediate course), who has not
appeared at the examination or has been
declared to have failed in more than three
papers, shall be rquired to re-appear in all
papers of that part of the examination,
including practical examination/home
assignment, as the case may be. 27
 Note 2: A student of any course (except students
of MILS, BLIS, Post Graduate Diploma or
Intermediate Courses), who has been
declared to have failed in three or less than
three papers, shall be required to re-
appear in those three or less than three
papers of that Part of the examination,
including practical examination/home
assignment, as the case may be.
Note 3: A student of MILS, BLIS, Post Graduate
Diploma or Intermediate Courses, who
has not appeared at the examination or
has been declared to have failed, shall be
required to re-appear in all papers of that
part of the examination, including practi-
cal examination/home assignment, as the University may issue fresh material to the con-
case may be, not withstanding that he/she cerned student on payment of the following
might have passed in one or more papers amount by Demand draft :
in the earlier attempt.
All failed students must also fill up the
Examination Application Form and the Examina-
tion Admit Card, showing their intention to re-
appear at the ensuing examination, and deposit the
same with the University, along with a Demand
draft of Rs. 1000.00 only by the date to be notified
by the University, failing which they may not be
permitted to re-appear at the next examination. On
deposit of the Demand draft of Rs. 1000.00 , every
failed student will be issued a current Examination
Application Form, free of cost. He/she will be
required to fill up all forms and deposit them with
the Registrar (E).
In case of non-filing of the Examination
Application Form in time, the failed students may
not be allowed to re-appear at the coming examina-
tion. The University may, however, extend the date
for filing above forms by failed students after
realisation of suitable amount of late fee from them.
A failed student, who has been allowed to re-
appear at the examination, shall be issued an
Examination Admit Card in the prescribed form.
He shall be entitled to appear at the examination
only on the authority of this Admit-Card. The
Examination Admit Card contains a computer
28
scanned photograph of the student, apart from
his/her scanned signature, both in English and
Hindi. It is a tamper proof device. Hence it can not
be duplicated. As such, the students are advised to
fill the Examination Admit Card and the
Examination Application Form very correctly,
deligently and carefully to avoid duplication of the
Examination Admit Card. They are also advised to
abide by the instructions given on the reverse side
of the Examination Admission Form.

33. Assignment Work / Project Report
must be submitted in time to
Complete the Course
Each student shall be required to submit two
assignments in each theory paper of all
programmes where no practical/project work is
prescribed. For this purpose, the University
administration will set out and provide to each
student three different topics in each theory paper;
out of which he/she will be required to write out
and submit assignment work only on two topics of
his/her choice in the answer book provided to
him/her for this purpose by the University. Both
the assignments, each carrying equal marks, shall
be evaluated for the purpose of examination. It is
again emphasized that writing of two assignments
in each theory paper, where no practical / project
work is prescribed, is compulsory and unless it is
done and assignment copy submitted to the
University on the date of the examination in
between examination period of the theory paper,
the study requirement of the student will not be
taken to have been completed and he/she will be
declared to have failed. Besides, it has, now, been
decided by the University to club the marks
obtained by a student in his/her assignment work
/project work with the marks obtained by him/her
in the written examination of that paper to deter-
mine his/her pass parentage in the concerned
paper. Hence, it is in students interest that he/she
submits the assignment work in time.
Students are also advised to prepare their
assignments very carefully and meticulously. They
must write assignment in their own handwriting.
Assignment answers should not be copied from the
learning material supplied by the University or
from any other source. Assignments must be
submitted in the answer books provided to the
students by the University for this purpose. In no
case, assignment written in private copy will be
accepted by the University. In case of loss of
assignment copy / copies fresh assignment copy /
copies may be procured from the University on
payment of Rs. 100.00 by bank draft. Similarly,
Project-Work, wherever prescribed, must also be
submitted by the fixed date, failing which the
student will be deemed to have failed in the con-
cerned subject.

students (IA/I. Com./I.Sc.), the annual
examinations will be held at the end of each
year of study. In other words, first term end
examination for Intermediate students will
be organised at the end of first year of study.
The final and the second term end examina-
tion will be held on completion of the
second year of study. Similarly, Bachelor
students are subjected to annual examina-
tions conducted separately at the end of 1st,
2nd and 3rd year of study. The P.G. Students
are also required to take two separate
A view of the Reading Hall of University Library
A scene of the Seminar in the Conference Hall
examinations, first conducted at the end of
1st year and the second conducted at the
end of 2nd year of study.
As per regulations of the University, it is
necessary for all students of all programmes
of the University (Intermediate, Graduate,
Post Graduate etc.) to pass each Part of the
examination separately. In other words, a
student will not be promoted/admitted to
2nd part unless he/she has passed 1st Part of
the programme or to 3rd Part unless he/she
has passed 2nd part of the programme.
However, the final result is prepared and
division decided by adding marks obtained 33
 by a student in all the years of his /her
examination.
It is also compulsory for every student to
pass separately in each paper of his/her
study before he/she can be declared to have
passed in that part of the examination. A
minimum of 33% of marks is necessary in
most of the programmes to pass separately
in each paper. However, the pass percentage
in each of the Honours papers is 45%. To
determine the aforesaid 45% of marks in
Honours paper and 33% in other papers, the
marks obtained by the students, both in
term end written examination and the
practical examination /home assignment /
project work of that paper, as the case may
be, are clubbed and added together to
determine the pass marks in that paper.
However, if a student has secured zero mark
in written examination of any paper or in
practical examination / home assignment /
project work, he/she will be deemed to have
failed in that paper. For more details please
refer to instructions given in respect of each
programme at the appropriate place in this
prospectus.
(B) In case a student fails to submit his/her
assignment along with written examina-
tion, he/she shall be declared failed and
shall have to repeat the year.
38. Improvement Examination
There is no provision of improvement exami-
nation in any programme of the Nalanda Open
University. As such, students need not to bank on
improvement of their performance through

M.Sc. examination will be conducted in two
parts and the candidates shall be examined in eight
papers in each part of the examination, each paper
carrying 100 marks, divided between term end
A practical class is on with hands on experiments
written examination and practical /home assign-
ment in a ratio of 80 : 20. It will be necessary to pass
in each Part of the examination. In order to pass
each Part of the examination, it will be necessary for
every student, admitted in 2008 session or sessions
to come thereafter, to secure atleast 33% of marks in
each paper. To determine 33% of marks in each
paper, the marks obtained by the candidate, both in
the term end theoretical written examination and
practical examination/home assignment, as the
case may be, will be clubbed and counted together
and percentage dertermined accordingly.
Howerver, if a candidate has secured zero mark in
term end theoretical written examination or
practical examination/home assignment, as the
case may be, in any paper, he/she will be deemed to
have failed in that paper. Failure in one paper will
mean failure in that Part of the examination. Hence,
separately.

The University, now, offers para-medical
courses in ten programmes, details of which are
given hereunder.
