Centre of Continuing Education (CCE) was started at the University of Petroleum and Energy studies

(UPES), Dehradun, India in the year 2007 with a vision of presenting itself as a focal point for

bringing in ‘quality–blended education’ through ‘Distance Learning Mode’, terms that have become

synonymous in present times.

UPES mainly deals with studies regarding petroleum and energy - sectors that are becoming

epicentres of economies to most developing and developed countries. CCE mainly focuses on

providing post-graduate degrees like MBA’s in infrastructure, power and aviation management, oil

and gas, shipping and logistics, health safety and environmental management along with PHD’s in

science, engineering and management to mention a few. With the emerging scope of the power

and energy sector and its growing influence on economics, these degrees are becoming increasingly

sought after in countries around the globe.

Part-time MBA and PHD programs are also being offered by UPES in association with the CCE. The

CCE also grants ...
... correspondence MBA’s in the aforementioned fields along with distance education/

learning mode as an optional way to acquire the post-graduate degrees. Working professionals too

can apply for the MBA and BBA programs offered by CCE.

CCE has thus pitched itself to be one of the most resourceful and enterprising avenues for

professionals who do not have the liberty or luxury of acquiring a fruitful, high-income job after

pursuing a full-time degree.

This is where one of the programs offered by the CCE called the ‘Distance Learning Mode’ comes

into the picture, which is ‘a state-of-the-art online option from the comfort of your home or the

convenience of your workplace’, as quoted on its website. Though this method of education has its

own pros and cons, it has become increasingly evident from today’s economic view point and the

needs of professionals, that the pros are beginning to outweigh the cons and that CCE is continually

making an effort to widen this gap and gain recognition for degrees obtained through this method.

CCE also offers career options for people interested in the teaching profession as a lecturer/assistant

professor for domains like energy trading, oil and gas power, port and shipping, and infrastructure

management alongside functional fields like logistics and supply chain management, health safety

and environment. Other career options are updated on the website as and when they become

available.

With the range of courses offered and the flexibility in pursuing your educational goals, CCE has

become a highly sought-after educational centre. CCE continually proves to be the most convenient

and suited option for pursuing education for working individuals. Over the years, CCE has offered

itself as an enterprising avenue to broaden one’s knowledge and explore career opportunities.
