New Delhi: The Indira
Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) has started the admission
process for post-graduate diploma and certificate courses in
information security, a statement said Monday.
Both courses are conducted by the university's School of
Vocational Education and Training (SOVET)
"These programmes aim to raise high professional ethics in the
individuals and students towards providing information security
and make one competent enough to acquire the necessary skills and
techniques to ensure protection against any infiltration," said
programme coordinator Urshla Kant in the statement.
While the graduate students can go for the one year Post Graduate
Diploma in Information Security (PGDIS) programme, the six month
Advanced Certificate in Information Security (ACISE) will be
available for matriculate students.
"The programme has been designed to prepare the youth to
experiment and learn the skills and techniques needed for
providing protection and security to the information available in
the virtual environment and to make learners both responsible and
smart net users. The eligibility to apply for this course is 10th
pass or its equivalent," Kant added.
The course fee for the one-year diploma is Rs.8,000 while that for
the certificate course is Rs.4,000. The last date for application
is July 30, 2012.
