About us

NU is the outcome of several years of meticulous planning and well intended dedicated effort. The spirit and culture of those earlier endeavours are today fully reflected in the reputation of the University. I can say without hesitation that NU is truly India’s answer to realise its aspirations to become a leading knowledge society. I would like to pay rich tributes to Shri Rajendra Singh Pawar, Founder, Shri Vijay Kumar Thadani, Co-founder, and their colleagues for transforming their dreams and vision for NU into reality. I would also like to congratulate the President, NU and his colleagues for shaping and strengthening the four core principles enunciated for this University, i.e. industry-linked, technology-based, research-driven and creating a seamless knowledge imparting system that maximizes student choices and ensures holistic education.

The academic programs of NU are very thoughtfully strategized in terms of its industrial linkage, being technology driven with appropriate focus on research coupled with seamlessness. This approach in my view is both pragmatic and in consonance with the fast-changing demands of a dynamic educational system. NIIT University also envisages imparting a holistic development to the students, not only from the professional standpoint, but duly taking cognizance of the role of moral values in preparing well-round’ citizens.

NIIT University over the years has expanded and consolidated its central role as an exceptional institution for creating, imparting and disseminating knowledge. This has led to the creation of unique organizational structures for synthesizing the process of learning, research, innovation and sustainability as a part of its role in the creation of a knowledge society.

I have no doubt that NIIT University is moving in the direction of becoming a world class centre of learning and erudition. Over the years NU has demonstrated all the parameters for being a world class university, viz

• Commitment to breadth and excellence in all fields of human inquiry.
• Engaging in cutting edge research along with teaching the next generation.
• Providing freedom to researchers to experiment, succeed, and sometimes fail.
• Allowing permeable boundaries thereby encouraging interdisciplinary research and teaching.

Incidentally, these steps are in-tune with the letter and spirit of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and with the institute becoming in the parlance of NEP a full-fledged research university.

I hope and feel confident that the students of NU family with their wide exposure to academic and professional fields will leave a mark nationally or globally wherever they go, by exhibiting their sound professional knowledge, impeccable character, sense of discipline and commitment. In this great odyssey, I wish NIIT University great and eventful future.”
