Quincentenary of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of Sikhism. The University upholds the
teachings and values of the Guru, the aPostle of universal brotherhood, truthfulness, non-
violence, compassion, tolerance, harmony, humanity, who strictly observed moral and ethical
values in daily life.
Ever since its foundation the endeavour of the University has always been to meet the objectives
enshrined in the Guru Nanak Dev University Act 1969, which emphasize that the new University
would make provisions for imparting education and promoting research in the humanities, learned
professions, Sciences, especially of applied nature and technology. Hence, it has been promoting

and spreading education among educationally backward classes and communities are its other
commitments.
The UGC conferred this University with status of “University with Potential for Excellence” in 2012.

Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar has become the only University of Punjab to get the elite
"Category-1" status by the University Grants Commission (UGC), giving autonomy to open new
Departments, schools, off-campus facilities and starts new schools and distance learning
programmes, besides the freedom to hire foreign faculty without the UGC’s approval.
With the motto of the University as engraved on its emblem ‘Guru's wisdom illumines all’, the
University has been leaving no stone unturned to meet the aspirations and expectations of the
society. Spread over area of 500 acres towards the west of the city, Guru Nanak Dev University
presents a picture of modern architecture. Traditional red brick geometrical blocks represent its
regard for time-honoured values and commitment to scientific advancement. The University today
boasts of 38 teaching Departments at the Campus and 161 affiliated, University and constitute
colleges and 68 Associate Institutes, many of which are located in the rural areas so as to make
quality Higher Education accessible to the rural masses.
More than twenty thousand students, an overwhelming majority of them being women, are
enrolled in various Departments at University Campus and Constituent Colleges. Online admission,
online Counselling, online re-evaluation, introduction of Credit Based Evaluation & Grading System
etc. are a few hallmarks of the University. All the results have been computerized and OMR
(Optical Magnetic Recognition) system is being used to bring in more efficiency and transparency.
It is the first University in the region to have computerized its examination and registration
system. The students now have an all time access to their results through SMS service.
Academically also, the University has carved a niche for itself in the field of Higher Education in the
country. Our University is recognized as one of the leading institutions in North India in the
domain of Science and Technology. Many coveted projects from the apex bodies like the DST,
CSIR, BARC and other organizations worth crores of rupees have been awarded to our faculty
members. One of the four Nodal Calibration Centres established by Bhabha Atomic Research
Centre is set up at our campus. The Centre of Emerging Life Sciences equipped with the state-of-
the-art scientific instruments worth crores of rupees, a well-maintained Botanical Garden,
Department of Sports Medicine & Physiotherapy are a few to mention. A well equipped modern
computer lab with the help of TCS has been established to strengthen the University infrastructure
and to prepare students for employment. Presently, a Centre with Potential for Excellence in Life
Sciences and a Centre for Advanced Study in Chemistry granted by UGC are working successfully in
the University.
In the field of culture and Sports the achievements of the University are also noteworthy. The
University has been National Champion for 10 times and the winner of the North-Zone-Inter-
Varsity Cultural Championship for 13 times. The fact that the University has been the winner of
the coveted Maulana Abdul Kalam Azad Trophy, the highest Sports award for a University in the
country, for a record number of 23 times, speaks volumes about its supremacy in the field of
Sports. An Astro Turf for hockey, a swimming pool of Internationalstandards, a velodrome, a
gymnasium hall, shooting range and many other state-of-the art Sports facilities are the prized
possessions of the University. The Lifelong Learning Department of the University is successfully
catering to the female folk of the region to make them self-dependent by offering various skill
development programmes.

The track record of employment of our students by big business houses and multiNational
companies has been very satisfactory. Our students of engineering, management and commerce
field are employed by companies in India and abroad. They are all contributing to the credit
worthiness of the University by their hard work and diligence. All these achievements and
successes are due to the heart and soul put in by the students, faculty members, and
administration of the University.

Vice Chancellor’s Message
In its Golden Jubilee year Guru Nanak Dev University ranks at top 5% of the
institutes in the country which were ranked by Ministry of Human Resource
Development and has achieved 55th ranked in NIRF 2019 ranking. It has scaled
upwards from the ranking band of 101-250 in 2017 to 86th in 2018 and 81st
in 2019 in “Overall Category”, regardless of an increase in the total number
of participating institutes like IITs, IIMs, IISERs, Central Universities, State Universities, Colleges
and Private Institutes, from 724 to 957 to 1479 respectively. Guru Nanak Dev University has also
secured a place for itself among the top 100 Universities. Ours is an institution of iconic excellence
in academics, Sports, Sciences having been conferred upon the status of “University with Potential
for Excellence” and placed in “Category-1” (only University in Punjab) by UGC and accredited at
“A++” grade (highest level as per modified criteria) by NAAC. Over twenty Departments of the
University have received varied grants under UGC:SAP, DST-FIST and PURSE. The commitment to
follow the path of triumph and our forte to strive for better shall definitely lead us towards
outstanding apexes. The green campus, excellent architecture, state-of-the-art infrastructure in
well-equipped laboratories, contemporary workrooms and lecture theatres for research and
teaching, facility of online admissions, online counselling for State Level Admissions, Credit-Based -
Evaluation & Grading System, more than twenty thousand learners in various faculties at its Main
Campus, Regional Campuses, University Colleges and Constituent Colleges and the essential
philosophies and ideologies warrant the eternal reputation of Guru Nanak Dev University.
We nurture an aspiration for extraordinaire performance for which GNDU provides an
autonomous work environment and as a result many members of faculty and other researchers
have won esteemed Internationalrecognitions and major research projects from UGC. To sustain
our pledge to fineness, the teachers and scholars have been given the independence to infiltrate
invisible disciplinary barriers, develop an understanding of society, culture and science to produce
works that establish interdisciplinary relationship between science and literature, economics and
environment, social science and linguistics, physiotherapy and psychology etc. Our expertise is
highly sought after by the Government and many members of our faculty have been serving the
Government of India in the highest capacities.
Our mission is to provide the learners with an all-encompassing foundation for archetypal
and proficient professional practices; to prepare them as critical thinkers and trouble shooters,
who will serve and enrich our increasingly global environment. Our Credit Based Evaluation
System and a well-developed placement cell assure the continuity of learning process and
employment security to our students. Grading, on the basis of students’ participation and
involvement in academic and co-curricular work throughout the semester, guarantees continuous
achievement both at underGraduate and Post Graduate levels. Post Graduate students are
encouraged to write short dissertations, term papers, research proposals and carry out assisted
research projects to make them familiar with the higher level of investigation.
A receptive and influential community of our National and Internationalalumni bind us as
members of a family. A few accomplishments like, MAKA Trophy for a record number of twenty
three times, National Championship on cultural front for ten times, the North Zone Inter-
University Cultural Championship for thirteen times, a substantial amount of funds under the
PURSE Programme from DST, Government of India, sophisticated instruments like NMR, TEM etc.
which are worth more than seventy crores under different schemes as a central facility, are among
many other milestones touched by the University on its journey towards success.
The publication of our in-house research journals with high academic visibility and impact
factor, various Memorandums of Understanding and collaboration with Internationaland National
6
Universities for courses, research projects and conferences, specially designated ‘Chairs’,
excellence in academic exploration, distinguished faculty and enthusiastic students are taking our
University to higher peaks. The University is starting many need-based courses like Journalism &
Mass Communication, Agriculture etc. in the new academic session. In addition, dual Degree
courses with foreign Universities are also in the offing.
My vision is to provide an immersive focused and deeply connective context to art,
Sciences, law, technology and life Sciences to encourage a transparent culture in the University, to
transcend skylines, to go beyond the middling to extend beyond the average and to reinforce the
vein for exploration to attain conclusive excellence.
