Online Civil Engineering Courses at the degree level are not offered online anywhere in Pakistan. Overseas Pakistanis feel a great attraction to such courses. Because they can not afford to come to Pakistan for regular studies. However, PDRi Pakistan offers such courses even online. This facility is for overseas skilled Pakistanis.
How Are Degree Courses Offered?
Overseas Pakistanis contain the most neglected segments of society. No facilitation of online learning is available to them. Pakistanis working abroad don’t find opportunities for it. However, PDRi has taken the best steps in this regard. It has collaboration with many international universities. These universities offer online courses of all engineering types to the management of PDRi. The prospective candidate must meet the criteria. The criteria are the concerned candidate must possess relevant experience. The length of experience must exceed at least 04 years. The validation letter for such an experience is a must.
Methods Of Acquiring The Degree at Graduate & Post Graduate Level
The interested candidate has to share his CV with every detail. Upon evaluation and assessment of it, the candidate will get feedback within two days. After the decision, in case the candidate stands eligible, he will be provided with further details. Such details include enrollment in the learning management system of PDRi. He will submit subject-wise research assignments. At the final stage project like a dissertation of 100 pages, the candidate will submit. If the candidate applies on the fast track, they can complete the process within 9 to 12 months. However, in such a case, the candidate is required to submit his assignments within six months. It is called the accelerated mode of study. Usually, overseas skilled persons prefer this mode.
Regarding accreditation and recognition, various countries have their own rules. For example, in Pakistan, there is a higher education commission for this purpose. In America, both accredited and unaccredited courses are offered. There is no single centralized system of recognition. In the same way, France has its policies. Even lifelong learning-based degree courses are in vogue.
Keeping in view this scenario, PDRi has adopted a nonconventional approach. An overseas Pakistani gets the said courses as an international person. He can get an international image. He may no longer fall under the Higher Education Commission’s ambit because he is an international graduate. His degree course will have official recognition of the host country. Official recognition means the recognition of the awarding university by the higher education department of that country.
Legalization & Authentication of Online degree courses
In some cases, the candidates require legalization and Authentication of their documents. Legalization and Authentication mean the attestation of the concerned degree course. In some cases, the documents get attestation by the foreign affairs, notary, and embassy of the host country.
Most overseas Pakistanis need such services. Every type of such attestation occurs via third-party services.
What’s in It for Overseas Pakistanis
Research shows that degree courses from recognized universities boost the status of the candidate. Salary increase and the door of new jobs open up. Mental satisfaction and occupying a good job position is the most important aspects of it.
