Vice Chancellor's initiatives
Sustainability
We are fully committed to the UN's Sustainable Development Goals and biodiversity protection. These are integral to our core academic mission and institutional practices. Almost every department of the university offers courses on sustainability and is engaged in research in priority areas.
Women in STEM
India isn't the only country that experiences the educational-gender-equality paradox. Despite having the highest number of women undergraduate students in STEM worldwide, there is a sharp drop in their numbers when it comes to research and leadership roles. The university has led many initiatives on the issue.
Engaging Schools
Shiv Nadar University's award-winning Young Thinkers Forum is one of the world's most diverse academic programs. It provides school students with a curriculum that exposes participants to innovative topics while facilitating student discussions shaped by international perspectives.
