About Symbiosis |
|
Founded by visionary Padmashree Dr. S. B. Mujumdar
in 1971 as an International Cultural and Educational
Centre, Symbiosis provides a “home away from home”
to a large number of students including foreign
students who come to Pune in pursuit of higher
education. Living up to its name which is a
botanical term meaning “living together for mutual
benefit”, Symbiosis has grown over the past two
decades into a family of 36 academic institutions
providing education from Kindergarten to Post
Graduation.
|
|
Today, Symbiosis is ranked 5th in the country
and is known in India and abroad as one of the
best educational institutes imparting quality
education in various fields such as Management,
Law, Computers, Health Care, Arts and Commerce.
|
|
In 2002, the Ministry of Human Resource
Development, Government of India conferred the
“Deemed to be University” status on Symbiosis.
The National Assessment and Accreditation
Council (NAAC) has recently accredited Symbiosis
International University (SIU) with an 'A'
grade. |

About SOES (Symbiosis Open Education Society)
|
|
Symbiosis Society was carrying out distance learning
activity through Symbiosis Centre for Distance
Learning (SCDL) which was one of the autonomous
institutes of Symbiosis. However, Symbiosis Society
felt that having regard to the large number of
educational institutes under its aegis and having
regard to the varied methodologies of imparting
distance learning / open education using e-learning,
self-learning material, printed material, online
content followed by SCDL, it would be advisable to
set up a separate society for the efficient
management of SCDL, its expansion and establishment
of other distance / open education programs and
centres. In view of this, the management of
Symbiosis Society decided for severance of SCDL from
Symbiosis Society and establishment of a separate
society only for “Open and Distance Education” and
for exclusively setting up other centres of SCDL.
This is how Symbiosis Open Education Society (SOES)
was established. The objective of SOES is to
promote, advance and disseminate knowledge through
the open and distance learning system, in order to
provide education, skill development and life long
learning opportunities to all segments of the
population from India and other countries, thereby
enabling, development and growth of individuals,
society and community at large. Symbiosis Open
Education Society (SOES) has been registered as a
society under the Societies Registration Act on 9th
May, 2008 and is also registered as a public trust
under Bombay Public Trust Act on 10th Oct, 2008.
Symbiosis Centre for Distance Learning is now a
constituent of Symbiosis Open Education Society. |
