The idea of Doon University draws its elements from huge deficit
that the state of Uttarakhand has been experiencing in the area
of excellence in higher education. The Doon University Bill,
2005 (Uttaranchal Adhiniyam Sankhaya 18 of 2005) was passed by
the Uttarakhand Legislative Assembly and assented to by the
Governor on April 23, 2005. It was published in the Uttarakhand
Gazette on April 26, 2005. On 9th May 2009 its statutes were
approved and the University going to start its first academic
session on 6th August 2009. The spirit of the Act is to create
an autonomous and accountable institution of higher learning.
Accordingly the University intends to impart socially and
economically relevant education. It also aims to provide lead in
frontier areas of research and methods of pedagogy. Indeed the
mandate is huge and challenging. |
