rdf:langString The University of Distance Education, Yangon (Burmese: အဝေးသင် တက္ကသိုလ် (ရန်ကုန်) [ʔəwéθɪ̀ɰ̃ tɛʔkəθò (jàɰ̃ɡòʊɰ̃)]), located in Yangon, is one of two universities under the University of Distance Education system in Myanmar. With over 500,000 students mostly studying liberal arts and economics, the UDE system is the largest university in Myanmar. The Yangon university serves distance education students in Lower Myanmar whereas the University of Distance Education, Mandalay serves Upper Myanmar. Reflecting the country's low Internet penetration rates, the primary method of communication between the students and faculty is still by regular mail. Lectures for popular majors like economics and sciences are regularly broadcast over the country's Intranet available in over 700 e-Learning Centers throughout the country.
