Establishment of New Campuses
According to The English and Foreign Languages Universities Act, 2006, the university may establish campuses at other places. The university already has three campuses functioning at Hyderabad, Lucknow and Shillong. Since the university has an all-India mandate, the university aims to become India’s first truly multi-campus university. The idea behind opening new campuses is to reach out to the people who live outside the metropolitan cities, and do not have access to higher education. Hitherto a majority of Indians have been deprived of English and foreign languages and have therefore been unable to match those educated in urban public/convent schools. By setting up new campuses within their reach, the university will help them to overcome that handicap.
