403 courses, 6 months

Many people adjusted to the COVID-19 lockdown in their own different ways, but K. Venkata Rami Reddy, a second year full-time research scholar of GHBS, GITAM-Hyderabad Campus, spent the period purely on studies. In a span of six months, he completed 403 courses listed on the ‘Coursera’ platform from world-renowned universities. “It was my research guide A. Sreeram, who introduced me to the world of online courses and with the support of visionary management, I was able to complete the courses I signed up for within a few weeks. I have enjoyed the Coursera courses that I took. If you spend time on the class diligently, you can get a lot out of it, but the online learning is not a substitute for traditional offline learning,” said Mr. Venkata Rami Reddy
