Stand-alone courses are offered by The Open University of Sri Lanka (OUSL) to enable those who wish to obtain more information & additional knowledge in a specific area without having to register for a complete programme of study. In pursuance of this general objective, the Faculty of Natural Sciences announces and makes available the Stand Alone Courses in Science. Prospective applicants are reminded that the OUSL adopts open and distance learning (ODL) study system which involves a minimum of regular face-to-face classes. Open University courses are therefore ideally suited for employed persons. The minimum age for enrollment will be 15 years as of the last date of receiving applications.
Students who do not wish to register for a regular programme of study are
given the opportunity to offer Stand-Alone Courses. Such students may register
for courses up to an academic value of 15 credits per academic year.
Credit Certificates in respect of each course will be issued upon request to all
students who obtain at least the overall minimum Pass mark in the course .
