President of India). Outgoing students of the university have been privileged to be addressed by Dr.
Manmohan Singh (the then Prime Minister of India), Dr. Narayan Murthy (Chairman Infosys), Mrs.
Pratibha Devisingh Patil (the then President of India), Mr. Hamid Ansari (the then Vice-President of
India), Sh. Narendra Modi (The Prime Minister of India) and Shri Ram Nath Kovind (The President of
India) in the convocations held in 2008, 2009, 2011, 2014, 2016 and 2018 respectively. The University

The University has four Faculties consisting of 15 Schools, which offer 06 Undergraduate, 14

including Indian Institute of Technology which promotes vigorous learning and transparent evaluation
mechanism. The University has signed Memorandum of Understanding with various National and
International Academic, Professional and Research institutes as well as industry to augment the learning
process and to develop research and development infrastructure.

About 125 highly qualified faculty members, from various parts of the country, are devoted to inspiring
and guiding the students towards higher learning and research. The focus of the University is on building
highly-qualified man-power with abundance of integrity and humaneness. The admission to various
programs are made based on performance in competitive exams like JEE Main / CCMT/ CMAT / CAT/
MAT and/or based on the rank obtained in the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University Entrance Examination
(SMVDUEE). Students from over 22 different states of the country epitomize a healthy amalgamation of
different cultures, religions and languages on the campus. The campus is a classic example of a mini
Cultural India with students from far off places including South, West, North-East etc. The University
has recently opened its doors for NRI/Foreign Sponsored candidates also.

Being a fully residential University, the campus provides comfortable accommodation to all the students
with in-house mess facility. There are sufficient in-door and out-door sports facilities available to the
residents including gymnasiums. The state-of-the-art Auditorium with seating capacity of 1000 is an
excellent venue for academic, cultural and social functions. The Student Affairs Council, consisting of
different Boards, Clubs and Committees provide the students with an opportunity to play a major part in
transforming the way they live and learn in the campus. The campus provides an ideal atmosphere for
healthy interactions and competition among students and access to faculty and professionals from

simultaneously preparing them for the competitive world.

The University has taken initiative to create extensive University-Industry cooperation. There are many
ongoing research projects with assistance from various supporting organizations. This alone speaks of the
quality of infrastructure and education at this university.

1.1 LOCATION
The University is located in the lap of Trikuta Hills, the abode of Shri Mata Vaishno Devi at about 2700
feet above the sea level. The pyramidal type architecture merges beautifully with the valley like ambience
of the surrounding serene hills. The slight incline of the campus provides an ideal place for endurance
exercises the spiritual influence of the Divine Mother and Holy Shrine is palpable on the campus, which
helps add spiritual dimension to the quality of education and life on the campus.

An early morning and late evening walk, along the Shrine Axis and other loop roads, surrounded by
evenly placed lovely trees and clear sky with sparkling stars, refreshes body, mind and the soul. The
University is located close to centers of commerce but at the same time distance from the maddening
crowds of the major cities, which can distract students. The activities on the campus are designed to
provide ample scope for interaction between students, faculty, staff and visiting guests, even beyond
normal working hours to promote self-study, competition, innovation, creativity, self-confidence and
nurture their hidden talent to enable students to make optimum use of their potential and shape as
responsible citizens. The students are encouraged to study, analyze and understand their emotions, mind,
thoughts and the consequences of their own actions. Students are our ambassadors and as excellent
alumni are considered to be a great asset.

1.2 CLIMATE
The surrounding green hills and the perennial stream of Jhajjar in the east minimize the effects of hot and
cold winds and produce a pollution free atmosphere on the campus. The average day temperature in
summer is around 35-40 ̊Celsius while in winters is about 10-12 ̊Celsius. A moderately high hill full of
vegetation on the Western side of the campus shields the campus, particularly the residential zone, from
the long summer afternoons.

1.3 CONNECTIVITY

and is about 35 Km north of Jammu, the winter capital of J&K, overlooking the Jammu- Srinagar
National Highway, is accessible through road, rail and air routes. The nearest railway station is at Katra,

NSS activities provide the students an opportunity to develop in them sense of service, social leadership,
