Overview

About Centre for Open and Digital Education, Hindustan Institute of Technology and Science

Centre for Open and Digital Education, Hindustan Institute of Technology and Science is an institution in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, established in 1985. It is affiliated to Hindustan Institute of Technology and Science. Centre for Open and Digital Education, Hindustan Institute of Technology and Science offers 7 programmes, 3 at undergraduate level and 3 at postgraduate level. These include Bachelor of Business Administration (General) (online), Bachelor of Computer Applications (General) (online), Bachelor of Commerce (General) (online), Master of Business Administration (General) (online) and Master of Computer Applications (General) (online), among others. The stated sanctioned intake across these programmes totals 4000 seats. CODE offers online/ODL MBA, MCA, BBA, BCA, B.Com and the HITS online-programmes page also lists MA English. The awarding institution is HITS. Executive Director: Dr. Aby Sam. The official site currently describes CODE's office at St. Thomas Mount, Chennai, with campus/examination facilities at the HITS Padur campus. The evaluation page explicitly states semester-end examinations and the pedagogy page states English as the medium. No attendance minimum, institution-specific laboratory count, clinical/training tie-up, industry MoU, research-centre status, patent count or funded-project figure was published in the cited CODE evidence. The available official homepage showed admissions for 2025-26 rather than 2026-27. The official college site identifies CODE as an e-learning centre/unit of the deemed-to-be university Hindustan Institute of Technology and Science, not a separate degree-awarding institution. The brochure says HITS was founded in 1985; this is the parent university's founding year, not necessarily CODE's establishment year. Current admissions material for 2026 describes delivery through both ODL and online modes, while the official CODE site describes the unit as an e-learning initiative. Address and contact details vary between the registered office and the university campus; the campus address is used here.
