The BAOU has classified all its potential learners for its diverse academic programmes into following target groups :

• Women, particularly house-wives
  

• People engaged in different services, business or agriculture,
  

• People living in rural and remote areas,
  

• People belonging to Scheduled Tribes, Schedule Caste, Nomadic Tribes and Socially Educationally Backward Class,
  

• Persons deprived of higher education in young age and aspiring to improve their qualifications now,
  

• Persons deprived of admission in conventional universities of the state,
