Jorhat. Nov. 4: Dibrugarh University will launch two diploma courses ' value education and spirituality and an MBA in self-management and crisis management ' from January. <\/p>\n
Both the courses will be run in collaboration with Prajapita Brahmakumaris Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalaya, Mount Abu, Rajasthan, and would be the first of its kind in the Northeast. <\/p>\n
The postgraduate course in value education and spirituality is a yearlong course, while the MBA in self-management and crisis management will be a two-year course. <\/p>\n
Dibrugarh University vice-chancellor K.K. Deka told The Telegraph that the decision to start both the courses have been taken after demand for similar courses had come up in recent times. <\/p>\n
He said both the courses would start from January under distance learning mode by the directorate of distance education and learning of the university in association with the education wing of the spiritual university, based in Rajasthan. <\/p>\n
\"Such courses have been prepared to make one-self equipped to take on the largescale stress and anxieties that arise because of the increase in pressure and cut-throat competitions in the workplace, be it in jobs or in business,\" Deka said. <\/p>\n
He said the value education and spirituality course had been designed to increase the perseverance of a person by developing their senses so that the individual does not suffer from stress and pressure in their day-to-day life and is geared up to face any stiff challenge. <\/p>\n
He said the course enhances spiritual feelings within oneself and the person is made tough enough not to bow to any kind of temptation or adopt any unethical or illegal means to achieve one's objective. <\/p>\n
\"The courses offered by Prajapita Brahmakumaris Ishwariya Viswa Vidyalaya are known worldwide for their academic activities supported by spiritual pursuits. Their principle is that education is to improve the quality of life not only based on knowledge, but also by adhering to the virtues of life,\" Deka said. <\/p>\n
He said though the materialistic standards of living has been raised manifold, such progress and prosperity has also led to the fall in moral standards of the people with vices like corruption and other forms of crimes becoming rampant. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
