LEARNING METHODOLOGY

SMU-DE has created a powerful model for teaching and learning. The university provides distance education to thousands of students across the country, pursuing graduate and post-graduate programs across several disciplines.

SMU-DE learning experience comes with flexibility and convenience for students. We call this learning experience “The SMU-DE Way of Learning”.

The SMU-DE way is learner-centric and puts the student at the core of an experience that combines three distinct learning delivery systems:

Self-Learning: High-quality self-learning material made available to our students in a digital format apart from printed books.

EduNxt: Manipal Education has launched the next generation learning system - EduNxt - a new technology infused learning system that will transform distributed learning in India. Affordable and easy to use, EduNxt enables a collaborative and interactive environment for learning and includes small group mentoring, virtual classrooms, simulation and other interactive content, self-study content, recorded presentations and shared browsing.

Our help lines are available to cater to any queries or doubts from our students at any time.
