    Go to the website below. On your right hand side, you will see "Find a Location".
    Choose a country or two and contact the listed affiliated organization(s) of your choice. They may point you in the right direction. It is a huge resource. Good luck.

    Interesting. Why does distance learning in pakistan peak your interest? Will you post the results of your case study? What will you do with this information?

    Hi buddy,

    I think you miss-understand my question, I asked if someone here at forum is a meber from Pakistan and had earned degree by distance learning.

    I asked that so I can better correspond with that person via telephone here in Pakistan, or via email or via forum to know what was the exact procedure how much does it cost to him, and MOST is how much does it worth in Pakistan, does it help him get job here in Pakistan?Do people recognize that degree?

    Hope it's clear to you now

    Thanks for the response.

    Hello buddy. ;)

    I worked with a friend from pakistan, who earned his electrical engineering ph.d combining online and on-campus study. I am not sure if he secured a position in pakistan. However, he spoke well of job opporunities in pakistan with an american doctoral degree. He received a stipend and tuition waivers. However, if he paid full tuition for hjs studies, it would cost him almost $3,000 per course :eek: . I worked in distance education at an RA accredited research 1 university and meet many graduate students from the middle east and asia. Upon their return, they were able to secure well paying jobs in india, indonesia, china, vietnam, and saudi arabia.

    An RA accredited degree, on-campus or online, is valuable in asia and the middle east.
