Dear MVU Community!
The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 marks a transformative shift in India’s academic landscape, placing a strong emphasis on student-centric learning, skills development, and the seamless integration of technology. At Mahaveer University, we wholeheartedly embrace this vision. Our mission is not just to impart knowledge, but to create, nurture, and share it, while working in collaboration with other institutions to enrich the academic journey of our students.
As Vice-Chancellor, my vision is to see Mahaveer University (MVU) evolve into a dynamic and innovative hub of learning—an institution that not only meets expectations but consistently sets new benchmarks. Our progress is powered by our distinguished faculty, our dedicated staff, and our future-oriented programs. We take immense pride in our achievements in research, patents, publications, externally funded projects, and our sustained efforts in improving accreditations and rankings.
With world-class infrastructure, a flexible curriculum, and robust industry partnerships, MVU is preparing a generation of professionals who are not only career-ready but also deeply rooted in social responsibility and ethical values.
At the heart of our academic philosophy lies the belief that “Knowledge is Power.” Guided by this principle, Mahaveer University has been committed to shaping young minds with strong moral grounding, leadership qualities, a research mindset, and a spirit of innovation. Our permanent campus, spread across lush greenery, serves as a ‘temple of learning’—equipped with state-of-the-art facilities that support a vibrant academic and research environment.
Our programs follow the Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) and are designed with an Outcome-Based Approach (OBA) to meet global standards. They are tailored with industry relevance in mind, allowing faculty the freedom to incorporate emerging knowledge and spark creativity in students. Crafted by a synergy of academic minds, industry experts, and researchers, our curriculum remains contemporary, rigorous, and globally benchmarked.
Assessment is continuous, transparent, and designed to holistically evaluate student performance through a credit-based grading system. We are confident that our academic framework resonates with the aspirations of students, parents, and the corporate world alike.
At MVU, research, consultancy, and innovation are more than academic activities—they are central to our identity. Live industry projects are integrated into learning, and entrepreneurship is actively promoted. Through our liberal arts-inspired teaching model, faculty members instill in students both critical thinking and a problem-solving mindset rooted in societal context.
We have also introduced structured soft skills training, competitive exam preparation, and entrepreneurship development programs. Our Technology Incubation Centres support budding entrepreneurs in transforming ideas into enterprises, paving the way for knowledge transfer, innovation, and wealth creation. We are working towards giving our young minds global exposure and opportunities, aligning them with international academic and professional landscapes.
I firmly believe that Mahaveer University is on the right path—fostering holistic education, nurturing talent, and contributing meaningfully to national development. We remain committed to delivering accessible, high-quality education and shaping students into not just professionals, but thoughtful, responsible global citizens.
Let me end by recalling the timeless wisdom of Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore:
“The higher education is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life in harmony with our existence.”
Welcome to Mahaveer University! Learning without Limit
