I am thrilled to announce the exciting new phase GD Goenka University has embarked on
for 2023-2028. We have launched our Institutional Development Plans (IDP), setting the
course under the guidance of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. The university has
achieved a diamond rating in teaching and learning from QS-IGUAGE and holds
memberships in the Association of Indian Universities (AIU), Association of Commonwealth
Universities (ACU), and the International Association of Universities. Moving forward, GDGU
is committed to obtaining additional national and international accreditations, including
NAAC, NIRF, AMBA, among others.
To achieve our Vision Statement's ultimate goal of becoming a globally renowned institution,
GD Goenka University is on a mission to cultivate global and socially responsible citizens.
Long recognized for establishing a strong foundation in a wide array of knowledge areas,
GDGU enhances this with valuable skills through experiential learning. Well ahead of its
widespread adoption in Indian higher education, GDGU has been championing the benefits
of interdisciplinary, project-based learning with an emphasis on innovation and research. Our
motto, "From Foundation To Flight," reflects our commitment to nurturing the leadership and
entrepreneurial potential of each student until they assume their rightful roles in society and
the global arena.
To navigate the evolving dynamics of society in a rapidly changing world, we have
established three overarching goals: Good Governance, Research Excellence, and
Excellence in Teaching & Learning. Good governance will be realized by adhering to the
university's vision, mission, and values, complying with legal and regulatory frameworks, and
upholding progressive and ethical standards aimed at achieving several of the UN’s
sustainable development goals. Achieving research excellence is crucial for GDGU both now
and in the future. Immediate actions are being taken to foster an environment that empowers
students and faculty, encouraging and rewarding original research and the creation of
intellectual property. Excellence in teaching and learning is an ongoing endeavour at the
university, pursued through enriching the curriculum with innovative pedagogies, courses,
and teaching methods, promoting interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary education,
monitoring student progression, and investing in faculty development, student employability,
and entrepreneurial skills.
At its core, our university prioritizes people, which is why values are central to our strategic
approach. Our mission is to be a force for positive change by uniting students from diverse
backgrounds to engage, inform, and transform. We are supported by a dedicated and
diverse faculty who form dynamic teams and establish partnerships for educational and
research initiatives. Our goal is to prepare our students for a rewarding life. By excelling in
these areas, we will enhance our reputation both nationally and internationally and seize the
opportunities that lie ahead.
