CriterionI–CurricularAspects

Key indicator-1.1 Curriculum Design and Development

1.1.1

Curricula developed and implemented have relevance to the local, national, regional and

global health care needs which are visible in Programme Outcomes (POs), and Course

Outcomes (COs) offered by the University, as per the norms of the Regulatory Bodies.

Response

SGT University offers 168 programs including UG, PG, M.Phil, Diploma and Ph.D programmes

with well developed curriculum benchmarked with reputed national and international institutions

to cater the ever changing needs of the society and in accordance with the regulatory councils.

Each programme has well defined programme outcomes (PO), programme specific outcomes

(PSO) and course outcomes (CO) which in turn are reflected in the curricula of the programme.

The academic programmes, co-curricular and extra-curricular activities are designed

meticulously so as to reflect the vision and mission of the University, focusing on higher learning

to attain the defined outcomes.

In order to have a perfect mix of curricula, pedagogy and assessment, multiple

deliberations are held at various levels through relevant committees to achieve the

desired outcomes. The feedback from all stakeholders of the University for curriculum

development is given due importance and analyzed by appropriate committees. The

recommendations of these committees are placed to the Board of Studies(BOS)

existing in each faculty and department to consider programme structure, curricula and

syllabi. Keeping in mind the latest trends in education and changing requirements of

industry, experts from the academia or industries are regularly called upon for devising

and revising the educational objectives, learning outcomes, goals and strategies for

courses and programmes. The apex body which recommends for approval to Board of

Management is the Academic Council. The Academic council and BOS members

ensure that the curriculum of every programme has relevance to the

local/national/regional/global developmental needs. The University has developed well

defined procedures to inclulcate critical thinking in the designing of new curriculum

and the revision of the existing ones to foster the intellectual growth in the University.

From 2017 onwards, University has come up with the choice based credit system so

that students have a choice to choose from the prescribed courses, which are referred to

core and elective courses. The basic idea is to look into the needs of the students so as

to keep them updated with the development of higher education in India and Abroad. A

framework for programme structure with semester-wise credit distribution for all UG

and PG degrees has been defined to maintain uniformity in all the programmes.

Summer training and case study reports are included as a part of course curriculum.

The changes in the curriculum design are continually approved from the BOS which is

reformed every three years according to the University ordinance.

Reforms in the process and procedure in the conduct of evaluation/examination; including

Continuous Internal Assessment to improve the examination system.

Response:

SGT University has a well- defined Examination Cell. The various pre-examination processes,

conduct of examinations and result declaration are controlled and monitored by this Cell. The

centralized publication of Examination schedule and results is convenient for all students and

faculty members.

The Examination reforms initiated by IQAC includes:

1) Importance on practical and skill based learning with resultant equal weightage

of theory and practical components.

2) Emphasis on continuous assessment of the student and resultant formative

assessment as 40% and summative assessment as 60%.

3) Change of question paper patternwith the introduction of objective types of

questions constituting 50% of the total marks.

4) The Evaluation of Objective type questions through OMR software

5) Creation of Question bank and generation of question paper through software.

6) Implementation of Choice based credit system as per UGC guidelines.

The equal weightage of theory and practical components actually improvised the learning

experience of the students and also resulted in enhanced skills and therefore effective placements

of the students.

The Continuous assessment of the students with well defined distribution criteria has actually

increased the learning quotient with students focusing on their studies throughout the

year/semester rather than at the last minute before the exams. Continuous internal assessment

includes the following components:

1. Class tests and Midterm tests

2. Power Point Presentations

3. Assignments (Verbal and Written)

4. Synergy project

5. Attendance

6. Non-formal assessment based on observation of individual student’s participation in

group work, classroom learning and other initiatives.

This type of assessment improves students’ attendance, enhances studentsparticipation in various

activities and gives enough scope to the students to improve their performance and analyze their

progress from time to time.

With the introduction of the Objective type questions to a tune of 50% has been a major stride

University has taken to reform the assessment procedures. Since students have different

aptitudes and learning styles, the assessment system now provides them with an opportunity to

benefit from these differences. For instance, the slow writers are benefitted from MCQs while

those with poor essay writing skills can now write crisp and brief answers in the descriptive part,

This makes the assessment more realistic and satisfactory for students. The evaluation of

Objective questions through OMR software also simplifies the evaluation. Also, it has made the

evaluation system more objective and transparent. The University is also trying to switch to

OSCE and OSPE to increase the objectivity in the exams and efforts are in progress to train our

faculty members for the same.

The introduction of Question bank and procurement of Question banking software with resultant

generation of question paper through software has actually removed the biases and hassles in

question paper setting by the faculty.

The introduction of choice based credit system with University open electives has provided

students options to choose the courses as per their interests and passion.

The Attendance and performance of student is marked online on ERP software by each faculty

member.

Workshops/seminars conducted on Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) Research

methodology, Good clinical Practice, Laboratory, Pharmacy and Collection practices,

Research Grant writing and Industry-Academia Collaborations during the last five years

The Intellectual Property rights relate to the assignment of property rights through patents,

trademark & copyrights. They make available patents in the field of Commerce & health

Sciences provided they are new and are capable of industrial application and involve an

inventive step. For that reason, it becomes important to understand the importance of IPRs and

take necessary measures to protect the Intellectual property that is generated by young

researchers and faculty members working in various fields of research and development for its

future licensing and Commercialization.

In the recent years, SGT University, Gurugram has organized and conducted a number of

seminars and workshops in the area of IPRs, Research methodology and Good Clinical

practices. Starting from the academic year 2014-15, wherein the University began with 1 such

workshop which was followed by 7 workshops and seminars in 2015-16. Thereafter, this

number grew considerably with 16 such workshops and seminars in 2016-17, 36 workshops and

seminars in 2017-18 and as of now 24 such workshops and seminars in 2018-19. Few of such

workshops/seminars have been covered in detail below.

To ensure continuous learning and acquaint more and more students who are naïve in this field a

one-day workshop on IPR was organized in December 2018. This workshop was organized by

Institutions’ Innovation Council (IIC) set up under the guidance of MHRD, in coordination with

SGT University has a well defined Organizational culture where each University committee

functions and practices authority independently yet in tandem with the hierarchical structure and

A case study describing decentralization and participative management is the

implementation of examination reforms throughout the University.

The process of review and reformation of existing examination system was initiated by IQAC in

2017 with a series of meetings at various levels:

Meeting with Controller of Examination to discuss the examination reforms, their need

and the way forward

Following this, all the Deans were asked to submit their examination process and

scheme as regulated by respective council which was then followed by extensive

deliberations under 3 main headings:

1. Weightage of Theory and practical component

2. Percentage distribution of formative and summative assessment

3. Question paper pattern

To have uniformity in the system of examination of the University, multiple meetings

were held with Deans, Controller of examinations and faculty members of the University

to revise the examination process in each faculty such that equal emphasis is given to

theory and practical examination by having equal distribution of marks to each.

The continuous formative assessment was introduced to have 40:60 ratio of formative to

summative assessment except where bound by council regulations.

The faculty members and Deans were also sensitized for the need to change question

paper pattern and the introduction of Objective type questions.

All the faculty coordinators were trained to frame Objective type Questions through a

series of FDPs

Guidelines for type of Question paper including Objective and Descriptive part and

giving examples of each type of question were circulated among all faculties and Deans.

The Deans and faculty members were encouraged to prepare the sample question paper

All these reforms of percentage of theory and practical component, percentage of

formative and summative assessment and change of Question paper pattern were

approved by individual faculty Board of Studies including an external expert following

which they were put forth for ratification by the Academic Council.

Following approval from Academic Council, the guidelines were implemented from

next academic session and all the Deans and faculty members were asked for their

participation in the preparation of Question bank for the University where each faculty

contributed Question papers according to the new guidelines and submitted to the COE.

The appropriate Question Banking software was purchased after deliberations with the

IT, Examinations, Purchase department and IQAC and the semester examinations were

conducted using question papers generated through the question bank software.

This case study explains the decentralization wherein the examination reforms were initiated by

IQAC and involved participation of controller of examinations, Deans and faculty members,

Board of Studies, Academic council for reformation of existing examination system of the

University without the direct intervention by the management.

Institutional strategies for mobilisation of funds and the optimal utilisation of resources

SGTU is a self-financing body, as per section 8 of The Haryana Private Universities Act 2006, “The

University shall be self-financed and shall not be entitled to receive any grant or other financial

assistance from the Government or any Board or Corporation owned or controlled by the Government.”

The main source of funds for University is the fee collection from students for academic services. In

addition other peripheral support functions are also provided to students & staff, on mutual benefit

basis, like transportation facility, hostel facility, mess facility. These functions also make their little

contribution to the revenue system.

Fee to be charged from students is reviewed periodically by making a cost analysis for revision by the

appropriate authorities.

In addition, Medical & Dental hospital are also run by University which is on concessional fee pattern

and generates some revenue for the University, though the total expenditure of these services would be

higher compared to revenue garnered. This broadly serves the purpose of social service & an

experience ground for future medical professionals. In addition, University also undertakes little

amount of consultancy & training programs to contribute to the exchequer. As a policy we are trying to

augment this field to explore the untapped potential.

As an institution we look forward to explore all possible ways to generate resources howsoever small it

may be. We have been able to generate a reasonable sum through bank interest by efficiently managing

treasury operations. These funds are utilized for the upkeep & maintenance of student services in an

optimum manner. The deficiency, if any, in funding for Infrastructure expansion requirements to

improve student experience is generally met through term loans obtained from bank which are repaid in

regular installment. Surplus areas not required for immediate business purposes is rented out.

6.4.2

Funds / Grants received from government / non-government bodies / philanthropists during the

last five years (excluding scholarships and research grants covered under Criterion III)

Response: 2722.9 Lakhs

SGT University being a private University under Dashmesh Educational Trust is a self-sustaining

University without any financial aid from any of the Government bodies except that received through

extramural Research projects. However, University has received financial contributions about 2722.9

Lakhs from Non-Government sources, voluntary individuals and philanthropers as detailed in

additional information.

Institutionconductsinternalandexternalfinancialaudits regularly

SGTU undergoes internal & external financial audits on a continuous basis. The external audit is

mandated under section 43(1) of Haryana Private University Act 2006 and is conducted by external

independent Chartered Accountants firm. As the University is part of Dashmesh Educational Charitable

Trust the audit is conducted for whole trust. The audit is conducted in different phases during the year.

The periodic audit report is discussed by Finance Department with auditors to understand and remove

any kind of procedural anomalies observed for the purpose of improving system. The audit report once

finalized is duly presented before the Board of Trustees for detailed deliberation and approval. The

audit report is also presented to the Finance Committee, Board of Management & to the Governing

Body of the University for their reference & record. The final copy of Audit Report along with annual

Balance sheet for the financial year is submitted to visitor & Government of Haryana for their review

& records. The copy of audit report is also submitted to Income Tax Department along with annual

Income Tax return of the trust.

In addition to this mandatory provision, University also has a separate 3 members in-house dedicated

Internal Audit Cell which continuously conducts internal audit function to further strengthen the

processes & procedure across departments. The team selects various functions on rotation basis for

audit & reporting for example, transportation, mess, hostel, salary, deduction for mess/electricity

charges, stores, purchase quotation analysis etc. These audits often provide valuable inputs and have

resulted in establishment of better internal control mechanism by pointing out and removing

weaknesses in the system. Audits have also significantly contributed in plugging the revenue leakages.

These reports are also discussed with trustees for their review & direction. In order to enable internal

audit function to further sharpen its edge, we are planning to engage an external Chartered accountant

firm to carry out process audit of all non-academic functions of the University. The areas could be like

(a) review the existing process of collection of fees from the students, recording it in the accounting

books, follow up for pending fees and the internal control processes around it to check leakages and

delayed recoveries of fees, (b) review the accounting processes, chart of accounts, cost-centers etc.

with a view to check whether accounting information is being captured in a manner that department-

wise MIS can be prepared accurately, (c) The MIS system to be designed in such a manner that it

provides periodic information to the management of the performance of the university enabling it to

take well informed decisions based on data and analyses to run the university effectively and

efficiently, (d) Infrastructure & Equipment recording and utilisation etc.

Instituion has a streamlined Internal Quality Assurance Mechanism

Response:

SGT University has been focusing on quality academics and has been striving hard to produce

quality graduates and postgraduates that contribute significantly to their profession and society in

general. To institutionalize the quality assurance measures in the University, Collegium of Deans

was constituted in 2017. IQAC was established in the University as per UGC guidelines on 8th

June 2017 and full time responsibility of Director IQAC was handed over to the Pro-Chancellor

of the University. In October 2018, Dean Research and Development was handed over the

charge of full time Director IQAC as per the UGC Directives of changing the director/incharge

after every 2 years.

The IQAC in these 2 years has taken multiple academic and administrative initiatives to establish

the quality culture in the Institution. For the planning and execution of the activities, regular

meetings of IQAC were held quarterly as per UGC directives.

The IQAC would meet regularly and take multiple initiatives after detailed pondering of all

members regarding the pros and cons, the development of strategic plan and the steps for

execution and implementation.

The activities to be implemented required cooperation from all faculty Deans and coordinators.

Hence, weekly, fortnightly and monthly meetings with Deans and faculty coordinators were held

to get the things started and to follow up for effective implementation.

The multiple initiatives undertaken by IQAC in last 2 years are under the following headings:

1. Revision of syllabus and curriculum and introduction of student centric teaching pedagogic

techniques.

Impact analysis of the various initiatives carried out and used for quality improvement

Response:T

The various initiatives undertaken by IQAC have led to the beginning of a wave of change in each of the

academic and administrative sphere of the University.

The initiatives and reforms in academics including the participatory teaching methodologies, change of

question paper pattern and emphasis on practical learning have actually improved the students

performance in the classroom sessions as well as in examinations due to their increased participation and

evidenced in the examination analysis carried out in 2018 showing improvement in the overall results

after the introduction of examination reforms.

The feedback obtained from the students about curriculum and quality of teaching also gives necessary

inputs about the current needs and ways and means to improvise the curriculum and teaching methods.

The feedback from other stakeholders also gives insights about the improvisations required.

The multiple faculty development programs organized to train the teachers in educational technologies

have improvised the teaching-learning process by more and more teachers adopting student centric

teaching methods and improvized assessment techniques.

The creation of e-learning portal has proved beneficial for both students as well as faculty members in the

teaching-learning process. The creation of Question bank and procurement of question banking software

reduced the hassle in manually creating multiple question papers.

The research promotion initiatives have significantly improved the number and quality of indexed

publications and research projects duly checked for plagiarism, submission of research projects for

extramural funding and filing of patents.

The creation of multiple committees for a designated function have led to decentralization and individual

focus on each activity of the University. The Environment committee for example has carried out

Environment audit for the University in 2018 and 2019 and is actively organizing activities to create

awareness about various environment issues.

The Quality audit conducted by QS I gauge was an eye opener that helped in compilation of all central

data and gave insights about the areas of improvements in the University.

The administrative reforms included the creation of well defined policies and standard operating

procedures for each department for effective functioning. The various National and international

collaborations and industrial linkages helped in improvement in the internship and placement

opportunities for the students. The development of state of art National Reference Simulation Centre

and UNESCO Bioethics Unit has been possible because of institution’s commitment to quality

education to students.

issue. Various workshops have been organized individually by faculty as well as by the concerned

office at University level targeting different audiences of the University.

Apart from gender sensitization, University is providing Safety and security 24 hours and 365

days service with various means by presence of Police Station, around 1400 CCTV and fulltime

Security officers with 59 Male and 05 Female Security guards. There is an administrator for each

block of the university for the maintenance of all the above said activities regarding safety and

security within the campus. The Deans and all the faculty members are also available to provide

any kind of support related to the security issues of the students even after the college. The

campus is also having the 24X7 Multispecialty Hospital facilities to provide emergency medical

aid.

Counseling plays an important role in the overall growth of the students as well as the University.

So, SGT University adopted different methods to counsel the students like-

1. Mentor mentee programs in all the departments. Where the faculty member is assigned to

the group of 5 to 10 students for their counseling and any other support required and they

make their best effort to solve the particular issues.

2. Special session of counseling is also provided by the faculty of the behavioral sciences to

the students who are facing either academics or personal problems.

Separate Common Rooms for boys and girls are also provided to carry out their recreational

activities. Every block of the university is having common rooms including Hostels.

The University also has free of charge Daycare facility for young children of the employees and

dedicated staff to look after them so as to support the employees.

Describe the facilities in the Institution for the management of the following types of

degradable and non-degradable waste (within 500 words)

The functioning of the SGT University exerts negligible stress on environment due to

consciousness of environmental impacts due to anthropogenic activities which is imparted to

students and staff periodically. There are number of practices involved to reduce the generation

of wastes as much as possible.

1. Solid Waste: Solid waste is produced through activities carried out routinely during the

university processes including paper, plastics, glass, metals, food residue and packaging materials

etc. The waste is collected and segregated properly at each level and source. The administrative

supervisor in each block oversees that the waste at each floor is collected at given time intervals.

The cleaning personnel at each floor collect the solid waste, segregate it and gather the solid

waste in separate dustbins based on the recyclability and biodegradability of the waste. The

university has installed a kitchen waste disposal unit usually electrically powered.

2. Liquid Waste: Liquid waste generated by the university are:

1. Sewage Waste

2. Mess and Cafeteria Waste

3. Laundry Waste

The liquid waste is treated through wastewater treatment plant and is used for gardening,

horticulture etc.

The university has also installed a Liquid waste disposal unit.

1. Bio-Medical Waste: Biomedical waste from University Hospital and Dental Hospital are

collected in separate bins. The University has contracted with an authorized bio-medical

waste management contractor who collects the waste from the designated place and

Describe two best practices successfully implemented by the Institution as per NAAC format

provided in the Manual.

Presentation of Best Practice No. 1

1. Title of the Practice

Social Cohesiveness for Education & Welfare

Page 118: Self Study Report - SGT University · per UGC CARE list, 418 publications in Scopus, 140 publications in Web of Science and 211 publications in PubMed in last 5 years. The average

2. Objectives of the Practice

The practice sets out to intend the inception and promotion of the concept of Social values at the

basic levels in the various disciplines of Educational courses offered by SGT University. Such

basic knowledge amongst students and employees equally will lead to the objective of

application of these social values in curriculum, extracurricular activities and special skill

development endevours by the University. Propelling one’s career by remaining rooted to social

concepts in the area will lead to development of socially connected and successful personalities.

3. The Context

Connecting with the society out of one’s comfort requires steps towards initiation of such an

approach, which forms the biggest challenge for an individual. The university believes in giving

back to the society in the most humble possible way, so that the society connects with each and

every representative of the University. Role modelling by students, teachers can become source

of inspiration for people who are present in the varied demographic society of our country. The

steps needed to be taken forward are the most challenging aspect of the whole phenomenon. An

important feature of Social connect is reliability of the content, which requires another

challenging aspect of logistic arrangements needed for appropriate outcome.

4. The Practice

The practice of Social Cohesiveness intends to take every student of the University to the grass

root levels and apply the basics of their curriculum to the society at large. All the faculties

organise social activities so that every student can contribute to the concept. Connecting to the

society can be done in many ways. Sensitisations of the group, their trainings, exposure to the

culture at the University campus are some means. The Health Sciences faculties of the

University also takes special care in providing appropriate general health, dental health and

other allied health knowledge, consultancy, treatment and referral to all the members of the

society at their doorsteps. An example of this is our endeavour in adopting Village Budhera. The

engagements involved in this practice are unique to Indian Higher Education as it gives an apt

opportunity to every student to imbibe the important cause of social engagements and its

applications for a better tomorrow. Some of our other specific endevours are sensitisation of

farmers for crop protection, better cultivation organised by Agricultural Sciences;

Entrepreneurship skill development by Community Action Group; NavMuskaan, a dental

faculty initiative for cleft lip & cleft palate children and mental health initiatives by Behavioural

Sciences. Also it gives ample platform to all students to develop skill sets, develop technology

and understand needs in the major social part of our country. This somewhere also helps to

bridge the societal gap existing in our country. The government authorities though working as

first line for all the sections of society sometimes are able to execute policies with collaborative

partnership with educational private institution like ours. Our students have interacted with

the society through sensitisations, door-to-door surveys, focus group discussions, workshops,

nukkaadnataks. In our practice the students take care of involving the community leaders too.

The practice also has the flexibility of planning and execution as per the need of the society so as

best outcome can be achieved and thus it leads to develop long lasting relationships between the

society and the university.

5. Evidence of Success

The biggest evidence of success for this practice is the health care engagements which have

resulted in establishment of super speciality health care facilities at the campus and the ever

increasing utilisation of all health services at the campus. To take note is the door-to door

surveys undertaken at Budhera village with respect to oral health, general health,

musculoskeletal and behavioural parameters. Health care facilities are being provided at

minimal cost. Various faculties at the university have incorporated specific departments which

deal with community outreach work targeting social causes especially. The departments have

also been appreciated at over 82 locations for their efforts. The culture is rapidly spreading to

students who are also eager to engage in such activities like sensitisations, trainings, highlighting

Page 119: Self Study Report - SGT University · per UGC CARE list, 418 publications in Scopus, 140 publications in Web of Science and 211 publications in PubMed in last 5 years. The average

119

social causes & issues, technology support and skill development. Around 1699 activities have

been organised by the University in collaboration with Community or other organisations. We

have also been engaged in large number of activities with government organisations with special

focus on drives like Swachh Bharat, BetiBachaoBetiPadao and health days. All this somewhere

also make the rural society of our country to become better and confident individuals at their

skill so as to contribute to ever growing economy of the country.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required

Sometimes the mind-set of the society being engaged is an important factor in defining the

outcome of the activity. The initial hesitance and level to which society members involve

themselves becomes a big challenge. But perseverance and reinforcement with calm attitude has

helped overcome these situations. Another problem area sometimes encountered is lack of

financial support for social endevours. The University sponsors all the social activities but public

or other private financial support may help us achieve sustainable goals on the social front

Presentation of Best Practice No. 2

1. Title of the Practice

Academia Industry Collaboration

2. Objectives of the Practice

Academia Industry Collaboration is the central theme of the University and acts as the fulcrum

to form the basis of curricular background of each student at the university on one side and on

the other; it looks forward to future perspectives of changing times. The university realises the

need for changing times and future industry requirements and thus intends a predominant

collaboration of today’s industry in reorienting curriculum, leaving space of practical hours in

the form of trainings and internships at these industries and specific interactions with industry

associates in the form of workshops, conferences, symposia’s etc. at the University campus.

3. The Context

SGT University through its organisational structure has laid stress on the need of appropriate

academia industry interaction for each of its 17 faculties. The biggest challenge in designing this

phenomenon was the conventional thought process of teaching faculty members, who have more

believed in conventional text book and classroom teaching. The need of the hour also demands

appropriate industry collaboration at different levels like developing curriculum or giving

practical exposure to be world ready professionals. The incorporation of Industry during

teaching has really given a kick-start to certainly slow going professions, especially like the

Engineering Sector.

4. The Practice

The practice of Academia Industry Collaboration could be described as one of carrying forward

the stage in today’s world for which a higher education intuition like ours is preparing students

for. The conventional focus of a teaching institute used to be measured with the quality of

teachers it has as employees and students which it admits, but in today’s world success of a

higher education institute is more aptly measured by how much is the system contributing to the

states or nations development in the form of manpower, economy etc. Our country faces the

challenge of brain drain too, thus it becomes mandatory to look into further depth of the cycle of

preparing a student for a ready industry job within our country. This practice helps us in

preparing our students for employment, as is required by the industry and also incorporates the

fluctuations or changes the industry sees more frequently. Through this practice our institution

has also been able to work in sync with the government policies especially in the field of

education, skill development, entrepreneurship and MSME’s.

5. Evidence of Success

The evidence of success lies in ever growing occurrence of a practice. On an annual basis the

number of such collaborations has increased in the last five years. There are various steps in

development of this collaboration as well. The first would be a simple interaction in the form of

guest lecture or an industrial visit. The understanding and focus to future growth of both

industry and academia leads to a permanent collaboration in the form of MOU. The university

Page 120: Self Study Report - SGT University · per UGC CARE list, 418 publications in Scopus, 140 publications in Web of Science and 211 publications in PubMed in last 5 years. The average

120

has 57 collaborations with both International & National organisations which have grown in the

last five years. One of our targets was to assess our courses for focus on employability, skill

development and entrepreneurship which is a direct outcome of successful industry academia

collaborations. We have been able to achieve this goal to a level of 76% at the end of five years.

Over these years we have developed 95 Industry Academia Innovative methods, which have

helped us take our practice forward. Another milestone event in the same regards has been the

Vice Chancellor’s Internship program which also aims at preparing our students for the

Industry.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required

A sustainable relationship with the Industry requires a constant networking environment and

an ever-growing and adapting nature of the academic workforce, so as we can live up to the

expectations of the student workforce and provide them with over the board opportunities to

have a prospering career. SGT University has always been proactive in taking forward this

practice and has provided all the financial and logistic support for training faculty members &

students at the Industry. Another challenge has been the ever growing Educational environment

especially for us from the NCR, which we have taken for us as the driving force to think out of

the box policies in relation to Industry Academia Collaborations.

SYNERGY - VigyanManthan : The Way Forward

Innovations in science and technology are integral to the long-term growth and dynamism of any

nation. The pursuit of science also creates a spirit of enquiry and discourse which are critical to

modern, open, democratic societies. Historically, India can point to many contributions to global

scientific knowledge and technological achievement. As per the recent Economic Survey Report 2018

India under-spends on research and development even relative to its level of development. A doubling

of research & development spending is necessary and much of the increase should come from the

private sector and universities. To recapture the spirit of innovation, India should invest in educating

its youth in science and mathematics, reform the way research & development is conducted, engage

the private sector and the Indian diaspora, and take a more mission-driven approach in areas such as

health, technology, e-commerce, digitalization, genomics, energy storage, agriculture, mathematics

and cyber physical systems. Vigorous efforts to improve the “ease of doing business” need to be

matched by similar ones to boost the “ease of doing science.” These areas do have applications in all

the fields of the society and especially define the way forward for the economy of the country.

Shree Guru Gobind Singh Tricentenary University, Gurugram with the vision to spread the message

of Shree Guru Gobind Singh Ji that “Spread of Knowledge Is the Highest Service to Mankind”, take

special cognisance to provide the appropriate niche environment to the young of the nation who will

form future torch bearers of various sectors involved in nation building. The foundation of SGT

University rests on four pillars of rendering service, developing leadership, encouraging innovation

and inseminating strong ethics. It is our commitment and vision to develop our students’ holistically –

educating not only their minds but also their hearts – by developing strong morals, empathy and

service before self.

This university in its endeavor to carry forward its vision, places special place for research &

development in the various faculty disciplines being undertaken at the university. In the same area the

university carries forward the success story of its Techno Fest organised every year, which forms an

amalgamation of academic minds transforming into new age technologies. The academic skill set of

Page 121: Self Study Report - SGT University · per UGC CARE list, 418 publications in Scopus, 140 publications in Web of Science and 211 publications in PubMed in last 5 years. The average

121

faculties and students together with inter-disciplanary coordination leads to innovative ideas being

showcased for the development of the society. The objective is to carry forward niche projects

focusing on basic & advanced specialized education in all the disciplines being pursued through

faculties at the university. This platform would lead to holistic practical oriented development of the

manpower engrossed in various specialities.

We are committed to investing in long-term business relationships, which helps us develop new

products and technologies. Our Research and Development business combines continuous innovation

with state-of-the-art technology, enabling us to deliver best products, solutions and services. Working

in collaboration with corporate & industrial groups, as well as key customers in various sectors of the

society, we are focused on growing value-added technology and services based portfolio throughout

the region, thereby also strengthening our educational operations.

SGT University dreams of giving India the professionals, who can actually think, create research and

innovate and in this process the event SYNERGY has been successfully organized in 2017 & 2018.

Synergy literally means the cooperation of various organizations or disciplines to produce a combined

greater result and that’s what we aimed at that the various faculties interact with each other and

produce innovative projects that are actually through an inter Disciplinary Approach.

In 2017 at the SYNERGY event, there were 140 projects from the SGT University and also schools

and colleges from various parts of NCR and Haryana also participated in the fest. Around 60 projects

from schools were being exhibited whereas around 18,000 students from 180 schools were invited to

witness the exhibition. For serving this social cause, complete facilities including transport was

provided by the University to all these 200 schools. There are also special awards for the projects to

encourage the students under various categories.

The event in 2017 was inaugurated by the Honorable Chief Minister Haryana, Respected Shri.

ManoharLalKhattarJi and SGT University was very much obliged that he spared time from his busy

schedule to encourage the students.

SGT University with proud privilege organized the second year of our Annual technical fest -

SYNERGY 2018. The event was inaugurated by Honorable Minister, Respected Shri. ManojSinha as

Chief Guest and Dr. Vipin Kumar as Guest of Honour, who spared time from their busy schedule to

encourage our students. Around 350 projects from our University and schools and colleges from

various parts of NCR and Haryana were displayed in the fest. Around 17000 students from various

schools were invited to witness the exhibition. There were also special awards for the projects to

encourage the students.

The success of Synergy events have transcended into incorporating the inception of these ideas to be

presented every year, into regular curriculum of every student. Now every student of the university

works on an idea during the odd semester and makes sustained effort in preparation of an innovative

project for presentation ad display during the annual fest organised during the even semester.

This platform is one of its kind in the entire North India region which encourages research and

innovation among university students as well as school students. It also helps in overall personality

development of the student with improvement in team building, communication and presentation

skills. The university provides all the financial and administrative support to their students and faculty

for the projects prepared for the event.

All in all Synergy is a platform which motivates our own students and faculty members to think new
