Moreover, the university has a well-defined research promotion policy which has resulted into the development of state-of-the-art advanced facilities.

The experimental, participative, and project-based learning are in practice through blended mode. We have adopted flexible CBCS System that gives freedom to the students to undergo multidisciplinary approach. The assessment process is well defined to evaluate the attainment level in critical thinking and problem solving skill through programme specific learning.”

The university through NAAC accreditation gets to know its strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities through an informed review process.

Various dynamic collaborations have been established through the internationally funded research projects, international conferences and cultural immersion across the campus.

Dr K K Mishra, Director Accreditation & Quality Assurance Cell, said “In the old scheme, before 2017, the whole evaluation was based on an overhauled visit by peer team and now under the current process, 70% of the evaluation is based on data from the institution and university that is evaluated by a third party that makes it even harder and stricter to be accredited.”
