I am deeply indebted to the department of Higher Education, MHRD, Government of India for recognising UGC-Human Resource Development Centre of Karnatak University, Dharwad as a National Resource Centre for providing Online Refresher Courses to the in-service teachers in Higher Education in the subject of Sociology under the SWAYAM portal.
Karnatak University being the second oldest in the state of Karnataka is proud that its UGC-HRDC has this recognition of NRC in Sociology. Our department of Sociology is robust and I am sure it will do a good job in producing qualitative, authentic and intellectually insightful videos to strengthen the discipline of sociology through their online refresher course. I am sure this will breathe in freshness and update the knowledge of teachers in the various areas of Sociology and help them to become better teachers.
I wish the UGC-HRDC of Karnatak University, Dharwad all success in its new engagements with NRC and look forward to the strengthening of our department of Sociology in Karnatak University through this endeavour.
.
I welcome all the teachers to this programme and wish them all the best.
