UT to run postgraduate program

JAKARTA: The state-run Indonesian Open Learning University
(Universitas Terbuka or UT) said on Thursday that it would
commence postgraduate courses for working people in 10 cities
across the country through an e-learning program.

"We want to help those in the regions who cannot afford to
attend higher education institutes in person," Atwi Suparman, the
university's rector, said on the sidelines of a seminar titled
Technology in the Learning Process.

The university currently offers distance learning programs to
students across the country through diploma and degree courses.

Seventy percent of its students are elementary school
teachers. --JP
