Shri Ramasamy Memorial University is one of the Indian online universities tracked by EdifyEdu. This page consolidates approval, accreditation, and ranking data from the UGC Distance Education Bureau (deb.ugc.ac.in), AICTE, NAAC (naac.gov.in), and NIRF (nirfindia.org) so you can verify the legal validity of any online degree from Shri Ramasamy Memorial University before paying admission fees.
Online degrees from UGC-DEB approved universities are legally equivalent to on-campus degrees under the UGC public notice of April 2020. They are accepted for UPSC, banking exams, PSU recruitment, state government jobs, private-sector employment, and PhD admissions. Per UGC (Online Programmes) Regulations 2018, the degree certificate clearly identifies the programme as "Online" mode: this is by design and does not affect legal validity. EdifyEdu earns zero referral commissions from Shri Ramasamy Memorial University, which is why this verification page presents both strengths and gaps without favouritism.
Is Shri Ramasamy Memorial University UGC-DEB approved for online programmes?
Yes. Shri Ramasamy Memorial University is currently approved by the UGC Distance Education Bureau (UGC-DEB) for online and distance-mode programmes. The approval is verified against the official UGC-DEB list at deb.ugc.ac.in. Degrees issued under this approval are legally equivalent to on-campus degrees under UGC 2020 regulations.
What does UGC-DEB approved mean?
UGC-DEB stands for the University Grants Commission Distance Education Bureau, the regulatory body that approves Indian universities to offer online and distance-mode degrees. A UGC-DEB approval means the university is allowed to issue legally valid online degrees that are accepted for government jobs, PSU recruitment, UPSC, banking exams, higher studies, and private-sector employment. Without UGC-DEB approval, an online degree from any university is not legally valid in India.
How can I verify Shri Ramasamy Memorial University's approval myself?
Three official sources to cross-check: (1) deb.ugc.ac.in for the UGC-DEB approved list, (2) ugc.gov.in for the recognised university list, and (3) naac.gov.in for NAAC accreditation grade and validity. For NIRF rank, use nirfindia.org. Every fact on this page links back to one of these official sources. If any data point looks outdated, contact us and we will refresh it within 48 hours.
Is the online degree from Shri Ramasamy Memorial University valid for government jobs?
Yes. Online degrees from Shri Ramasamy Memorial University are accepted for central government jobs (UPSC, SSC, banking, PSU, defence civilian roles), state government jobs, teaching positions, and judicial services where the eligibility specifies a recognised degree. Per UGC (Online Programmes) Regulations 2018, the degree certificate clearly identifies the programme as "Online" mode: and the UGC public notice of April 2020 confirms that online degrees from UGC-DEB approved universities carry the same legal status and employment rights as on-campus degrees.
What is the difference between UGC, AICTE, NAAC, and NIRF?
Each body plays a different role. UGC (University Grants Commission) approves universities to award degrees. UGC-DEB specifically approves online and distance-mode programmes. AICTE approves technical programmes like online MBA and online MCA. NAAC grades the quality of the institution (A++, A+, A, B++ etc.) on a 7-year cycle. NIRF ranks the top universities annually on academic, research, outcome, and perception parameters. A trustworthy online university typically has UGC-DEB approval, AICTE approval (for management or technical courses), and a NAAC grade of B++ or higher.
How current is the data on this verification page?
