collegiate environment, overseen by the Senate and Academic Council, their challenges multiply with the education domain having to respond to requirements of a virtual industry and sudden focus on competing entities in this domain, who offer more and more material facilities – these are a challenge both in terms of preserving the years of traditions at the university as also ensuring that the university stays ahead in this competitive environment. These are also a challenge to maintaining our value system.

The increasing debate of “Right Regulation” only adds to complexities, be it with regard to affiliation/recognition requirements, certification requirements, reservation quotas, grants, etc. Additionally, the very personalization of leadership, the standing and stature of the university leaders also have their own positives and negatives on the university system. At the micro level, these issues may be specific to the university but they magnify when reviewed at the regulator’s levels, be it for public or private. In spite of all these issues, the only answer to these questions and challenges is to enhance the university’s performance – in terms of its quality output on a sustainable basis.

For Students
Students are the recipients of education and, therefore, in that sense are the most valuable elements on which the University functions. Students also make for the real vibrancy of an institution depending on the quality of tradition and image of the institution.

Similarly, students can benefit immensely from the system, which provides access to students records such as academic, fee, transport, medical, etc. The system also tracks participation of students and their achievements.
