Abstract: In this paper we study (non-commutative) rings $R$ over which every finitely generated left module is a direct sum of cyclic modules (called left FGC-rings). The commutative case was a well-known problem studied and solved in 1970s by various authors. It is shown that a Noetherian local left FGC-ring is either an Artinian principal left ideal ring, or an Artinian principal right ideal ring, or a prime ring over which every two-sided ideal is principal as a left and a right ideal. In particular, it is shown that a Noetherian local duo-ring $R$ is a left FGC-ring if and only if $R$ is a right FGC-ring, if and only if, $R$ is a principal ideal ring. Moreover, we obtain that if $R=P{i}_{i=1}^n{R}_i$ is a finite product of Noetherian duo-rings $R_i$ where each $R_i$ is prime or local, then $R$ is a left FGC-ring if and only if $R$ is a principal ideal ring.each $R_i$ is prime or local, then $R$ is a left FGC-ring if and only if $R$ is a principal ideal ring.
