OUR ACADEMIC PLANNING & PROGRAMMES – MAIN

FEATURES

A supportive campus climate, leadership and development opportunities and facilities to meet

the needs of students and staff.

Technology to advance educational purposes, including instructional technology, student

support services, and life-long learning education (virtual classroom, online lessons and

examinations, e- teaching and learning).

Commitment to share physical, human, information, and other resources in collaboration with

institutions of higher education in India and outside.

To focus on inter-disciplinary, multi-disciplinary approach to teaching, learning and

researching.

To review and revise curriculum and courses periodically by bringing in latest development

and getting feedback from faculty, students and other stakeholders including industry,

business, corporate sector and community.

To adopt more sensitive and reflective teaching pedagogy - participatory, interactive and

collaborative approach to learning instead of lecture method; group discussion, peer learning,

seminar courses, and applied approach to learning to guide academic agenda.

To follow semester system and choice credit system, and system of evaluation to reflect not

only subject contents learning but also the contribution made and experiences gained in the

class.

All programs are offered on the semester mode choice-based credit system (CBCS). Credit

System (CBCS) has several unique features:

Enhanced learning opportunities, ability to match students’ scholastic needs and aspirations,

students can choose subjects of study from other Schools, improvement in educational quality

and excellence, innovation and comparability of educational programmes across the country,

etc. All these curricular innovations of CBCS are aimed to achieve vertical integration of

knowledge and holistic development of the modern day students suitable for the competitive

globe. The CBCS eminently fits into the emerging socio-economic milieu, and could

effectively respond to the educational and occupational aspirations of the upcoming

generations. Aided by modern communication and information technology, CBCS has a high

probability to be operationalised efficiently and effectively – elevating students, institutions

and higher education system in the country to newer heights. ‘Credit’ defines the quantum of

contents/syllabus prescribed for a ‘course’ and determines the number of hours of instruction

required per week (including tutorials, term papers, assignments, practical work, classroom

teaching etc).

Curriculum and courses to meet challenges and opportunities thrown by internationalization

of higher education.

UNIVERSITY’S JOURNEY SO FAR – A BRIEF

Established under the Central University Act – 2009 (Act No. 25 of 2009) and starting its

Journey from its temporary Campus located in a tiny building at Government B.Ed College in

Narnaul on January 4, 2010, university has travelled a Journey which in the words of our

founder Vice-Chancellor, Prof., Mool Chand Sharma “though full of challenges has been a

very fascinating, exciting and rewarding experience.” The journey aimed at realizing the

vision: “To develop enlightened citizenship for a knowledge society for peace and


22 | P a g e


prosperity of individuals, nation and the larger world through promotion of innovation,

creative endeavors and scholarly inquiry” is being guided by a galaxy comprising eminent

educationists, policy-makers, scientists, academics, chairpersons and directors of institutions

of national importance (IITs, Medical institutions and others), Vice-Chancellors of

universities (present and former of international, central and state), senior government

functionaries many of whom constitute university’s various bodies like the Academic

Council, Executive Council, Finance Committee and others. Our founder Vice-Chancellor,

an eminent and internationally acknowledged scholar, teacher and visionary philosopher with

a sensitive heart has been the real fulcrum of the University.

In such a short period, the University has made phenomenal progress by any yardstick on

both fronts – developmental and academic. On development front, the University has already

started construction of first phase of its development of permanent Campus of State of Art at

the site allotted in Mahendergarh. Working tirelessly and in cooperation with MHRD, Govt.

of Haryana and the UGC, the University was handed over 483 acres of land most of which

belonged to Panchayats of Jant and Pali villages sometimes in the second quarter of 2010. In

spite of the legal complications (which hopefully would get resolved with the support of the

State Government), University is determined to shift to its permanent seat (Mahendergarh) by

start of ensuing academic year by which time the construction of 1st phase is likely to be

complete. Temporary Campus at Narnaul, from where we are functioning presently despite

kinds of limitations including of space etc., has been made imaginatively functional. It hosts

Smart Class Rooms with modern audio visual facilities; lecture theatres; furnished separate

rooms for faculty members to interact with students on research and academic matters; multi

facet auditorium; well-equipped Computer Laboratory with computers of latest specification

with legal software and internet facility for students/scholars at laboratory as well as Library;

Electricity back up by way of DG Set; Computerized Library with compactors for storage of

books and journals; Separate Reading rooms for about Research Scholars and students of

Master programmes; E. library with 1GBPS connectivity from BSNL. It has subscribed to

various national and international journals and added number of volumes to Library to cater

to the needs of scholars. Sports facilities like, Volleyball, table tennis, cricket, carom, chess

etc. have also been created.

On academic front, even we sometimes wonder to see the pace, sweep and richness of the

progress made in such a short period. Out of thirteen Schools envisioned, six Schools are


23 | P a g e


already functioning catering to humanities; social sciences, language, linguistics, arts, culture

and heritage; Law & governance; Physics, Chemistry, Computer Sciences and Information

Technology. As the part of preparation for introducing courses in natural sciences, material

sciences, technology and professionals of knowledge, we plan to initiate after shifting to main

campus which is already in the pipe-line. The University strongly believes and practices

trans/multi-disciplinary approach in teaching, learning and research. It has adopted pedagogy

of kinds that not only builds a culture of reasoning, curiosity and anxiety but also promoting

creative, innovative and engaging attitudes amongst learners as well as faculty. The

University has adopted transferable credit system of assessment that entails critical evaluation

of expectations realised and reasons for those not realised and if so, reasons by those enrolled

in respective programmes. Currently university runs 5 Ph.D., 4 M. Phil., and 5 Masters

programmes. University has been fortunate to engage very talented and dynamic faculty who

loves performing every single task with passion and commitment. Journey so far has been

witness to host of projects, initiatives and activities undertaken fostering, promoting and

providing fertile ground for building knowledge, scholarship, experience, passions and

produce excellence. Hopefully, it would not be mistaken as self-drum beating to mention

below some of the major illustrative initiatives bringing out our efforts and approach:

National Seminar – ‘Republic of India@61’ (March 26-27, 2011), Colloquium – ‘India of

Today and Tomorrow: Economic, Political, Cultural and Literary Perspective’

(February 2-3, 2012) and a National Seminar ‘Inclusive Democracy: People, Power and

Progress’ (May 30-31, 2012). Both these Seminars and Colloquium had inbuilt multi-

disciplinary and strong research inputs as their distinct characteristics. The first one was

structured around 13 papers – all produced by university’s research scholars under the

guidance of at least one faculty member and each paper incorporating cross breeding of

minimum two disciplines of knowledge (e.g. English Literature and Politics of subaltern or

English Literature and Market economy or Politics of Federalism and Economic growth). A

compendium of these papers was brought out by the University on the occasion. The

Colloquium saw papers from scholars most of whom pursuing their Ph.D. programme or

engaged with other research projects participating in serious prognosis of issues ranging from

politics and economics of mid-day meal for school children, place of subaltern in literature

especially English, emerging relevance and regime of Corporate Social Responsibility to food

processing and its relationship to food security. Abstracts of papers presented at the

Colloquium show the richness of the canvass covered by the colloquium. The seminar


24 | P a g e


‘Inclusive Democracy: People, Power and Progress’ witnessed building intense dialogue,

debate and sometimes arriving at wonderful consensus on different nuances of ‘democracy’

and how to make it more ‘inclusive’ and ‘participatory’. Research papers submitted for the

seminar provided rich fodder to the Compendium brought on the arena of the University. In

addition, there have been series of seminars almost fortnightly involving regional, local and

in-house expertise. Presentation of class seminars is an integral part of pedagogy, University

adheres to.

3-Day Workshop “Addressing Discrimination against Women: Walk the Talk” (May 18-

20, 2011) - It is recognised all around that India has emerged as a ‘success story’. It has

made phenomenal progress in almost every sphere of her life. Equally, it cannot be denied

that on many fronts and issues, a lot more is still wanting and one amongst them is the

challenge posed by persisting discrimination and denial of dignity to women. The declining

sex ratio and mind-boggling loss of girl child pose serious questions about our faith in values

of justice and equality to all – foundational values of our Constitution. We as a University

and being located in district Mahendergarh – a district that enjoys the ill reputation of

having a disgusting sex-ratio, are conscious of our responsibilities towards fighting evils like

female foeticide, bride-burning and routine heaping of violence and indignity upon women.

The present series of workshops is a step in the direction of discharging our social

obligations. This inaugural series of workshops being held from May 18-20, 2011, is aimed

at sensitising and capacity building amongst women especially among college going girls, for

resisting and rooting out some of these evils and ill practices.

Fostering Reflective and Critical Thinking – has been central to University’s academic

agenda. Apart from curriculum and courses designed and pedagogy practiced many other

events are held on regular basis. Some of these include:

The Central University of Haryana organized annual One-Month Celebration of

Partnership in Creating and Sharing Knowledge from October 14, 2011 to November 14,

2011 and from 22nd

Oct. 2012 to 22nd

Nov. 2012. The Celebration comprised a number of

events dedicated to and designed aiming at creating, disseminating and leveraging knowledge

to be a part of national endeavour for India to secure a place of pride on the map of global

knowledge society. The purpose of celebration was to enhance research capabilities, building

new skills, building the culture of applying acquired knowledge and information for social


25 | P a g e


causes. Almost every member of the faculty performed one role or the other while a large

number of students also actively engaged in the events.

In the annual One-Month Celebration of Partnership in Creating and Sharing Knowledge

held during the session 2011-12, the first in the series of events in the Celebration was a

discussion on “Relevance of Gandhian Satyagraha in Present Context”. Followed by

reading of the book titled “The Argumentative Indian” written by the Nobel Laureate Prof.

Amartya Sen. A talk on “Sovereign Debt Crisis” in the context of Greece, Portugal, Spain

Italy, and Ireland was organised and afterwards initiated a very engaging discussion on boon

and bane of emerging policies on “FDI in Retail: Issues and Challenges” and single brand

retail ‘market’ in India. Fourth week of the Celebration included introduction of a book

“Post-Colonial Ecocriticism: Literature, Animals, Environment” authored by Graham

Huggan and Helen Tiffin and another event organised the same day in the Celebration was

“Multiculturalism: Contribution of Baba Nagarjuna” which brought to focus how

practices of ‘Social Exclusion’ remain common in all cultures in one way or the other. The

most engaging part of this week of Celebration was an event fully managed by students titled

‘‘Big Contest – Who is Supreme Parliament or People’ – the contest saw six research

scholars preparing for almost two months prior to debating, dialoguing, to agreeing,

disagreeing and agreeing to disagreeing about the health, future and remedies for reforming

institution forming Indian Democracy. One month long Celebration concluded on November

14, 2011 with a passionate appeal to knowledge-seekers and creators to evolve policies and

structures that check the rising phenomenon of “Missing Childhood”.

Similarly, the major attractions of Second annual One-Month Celebration of Partnership in

Creating and Sharing Knowledge held during 2012-13 include Round Table Discussion on

Economic, Political and Social Dynamics of World of Sports; India Positive: A Big Debate

(Fact vs. Fantasy); Economic and Fiscal Policy: Generation of Accelerated Growth v/s

Promotion of Higher Equity; National Commitment to Build Human Capital: Encouraging

approach of Engagement v/s Approach of Pervasive Neglect; Institutions of Democracy:

Thriving or Throttled; Book Reading Session on Palace of Illusions; Case Study on

Kingfisher Airlines; Panel Discussion on Way to India Positive; Book Exhibition; ; Book

Reading- Digital India; Discussion on Democratisation of Social Media; Training Session on

e-resources; “Ambitiousness is Mandatory for Success—A Big Debate-I”; A Bilingual

Approach to Creation of Knowledge : Revisiting Saadat Hasan Manto-A Dialogue;


26 | P a g e


“Ambitiousness is Mandatory for Success—A Big Debate-II”; Discussion on Electoral

Reforms in India; and Symposium on Free Speech. University is engaged in a new

experiment towards creating and sharing of knowledge in such a remote area. Accepting the

challenges that would be encountered in the process, the university launched certain new

initiatives in a phased manner. 2nd

One-Month Celebration of Partnership in Creating

and Sharing of Knowledge was a sequel of the innovative initiative launched last year for

Creation and Sharing of Knowledge. Following is the brief account of the major activities

held during the month long celebration:

It started with a panel discussion on the theme ‘Economic, Political and Social Dynamics

of the World of Sports’ on the very day of inaugural of the celebration. Second activity in

the celebration was a capsule of four-day ambitious event. During the first three days, the

faculty debated on different aspects of India Positive (Fact or Fantasy: A Big Debate)

while on the fourth day a students’ panel discussed the ways to India Positive.

Unfortunately, in today’s time, the habit of reading is disappearing. Feeling seriously

concerned about this, the university organised a Two-day book Exhibition and the Book

Reading club organised two book reading sessions on the books—The Palace of Illusions

and Digital India. Department of Management Studies focussed its attention on

entrepreneurial skills through the story of rise and fall of Kingfisher airlines in which students

and faculty got together to dissect the issue threadbare. The celebration also focussed on

issues of contemporary importance for promoting the causes of democracy, development and

diversity in the changing world of today and thus conducted a round table discussion, a panel

discussion and building a dialogue on issues: ‘Democratisation of Social Media’, ‘Free

Speech’, ‘Electoral Reforms’, and ‘E-Learning’. A beautiful treat was presented as a part

of celebration by the Departments of English and Hindi while talking about bi-lingual

approach to study of literature focusing specially on the literature of Saadat Hasan Manto.

The celebration saw a brainstorming session amongst the different stakeholders: school

principals, college principals and university fraternity talking about taking joint initiatives to

realize holistic approach to dissemination of knowledge. The first major step towards

building partnership in month-long celebration was initiated through the organisation of a big

debate on the theme ‘Ambitiousness is Mandatory for Success’ where all three tiers of

institutions viz. neighbourhood schools, colleges and the university jointly participated

leading to excitement of learning among the learning community.

A 2-day Colloquium “India of Today and Tomorrow: Economic, Political, Cultural and

Literary Perspective” in which experts and scholars from different disciplines and different

parts of the country participated was hosted by the Central University of Haryana. The

Colloquium was divided into three sessions in which 16 papers dealing with complex issues

varying from such as: ‘Indo-Pak relations’ to ‘Culture studies in a globalised world’ to

‘India’s east-look policy’ to ‘Food processing and agricultural development’ to ‘Study of

implementation of Swaran Jayanti Gram Swarozgar Yojana (SGSY) in Narnaul’ were

discussed and reflected upon.

Building Dialogue: Social, Economic, Political and Cultural Dynamics of Paan Singh

Tomar – an event which saw a panel of six faculty members drawn from different disciplines

giving their best, followed by dissection and analysis by the researchers and students.

A Consultative Workshop “Towards Designing a Road Map- Implementation of RTE

Act, 2009” was held on June 21, 2012. Some of the illustrative Issues were taken up for

discussion in the Workshop to Design a Road Map for the Implementation of Right to

Education Act, 2009. Though it was an exhaustive discussion towards making a beginning,

the group felt concerned that sections of RTE Act should be understood in proper context and

a broad based dialogue should be conducted at the national level percolating down to even

the most backward, marginal and underprivileged groups and therefore the policy framework

needs to be considerate of multilingualism, plurality and essentially diverse context of our

country.

University’s initiative “Journey for Change… from Narnaul to Delhi” (Jan. 28- Feb. 7, 2013)

was one of the most ambitious enterprises University has initiated so far. The Journey was

based upon the two events i.e. a one-act play Gyan Purnima ki Aur and a Colloquium on

“Value Education: Imperative for Change”, organized at different places including DAV

School, Narnaul, Holy Child Public School, Rewari, Government College Ateli, Jahara

stadium Jhajjar, GGS IP University, New Delhi and Youth Pavillion, World Book Fair,

Pargati Maidan, New Delhi. The event was aimed at building partnership among the

institutions to serve the cause of education while understanding the complexities at different

levels—primary, secondary and tertiary. The event was equally important from the

perspective of bringing awakening among the students, faculty, educational leaders and other

stakeholders regarding the importance of value education in the present context. The play

“Gyan Purnima ki Aur…” , performed by the students of the University and Colloquia


28 | P a g e


organized by the University Faculty at different institutions were warmly received by the host

institutions who readily offered their partnership to join hands with University’s outreach

programme “Journey for Change…”. The journey concluded at Pargati Maidan with the

release of a book Right to Education Act 2009: An Imperative for Progress edited by the

founder Vice Chancellor of the University, Prof. Mool Chand Sharma.

Various other recent initiatives of the University include the organization of an Orientation

Programme “Coming Together…”; celebration of Constitution Day; Teachers’ Day;

Mother’s Day; Interface with the Bollywood actor Mr. Anil George; Hindi Divas; Human

Rights’ Day; Quiz Competitions and many more.

Book Reading Club – is a major initiative launched to promote not only wide exposure to

reading but to promote a culture of reading interwoven with reflectivity and criticality.

Reading of books like: Yajnaseni, Argumentative Indian, The Story of English in India,

Postcolonial Ecocriticism, Language and Politics in India, Digital India, The Palace of

Illusions and Beautiful Country along with the Orientation Workshop on Book Reading

with Surajmukhi Andhere Ke as the illustrative text, amply demonstrate the significance the

club has acquired in the life of campus as there is long queue of those waiting to present their

readings of different works for reflection by others.

Group for the Promotion of Art, Culture and Heritage: Organising various kits of story-

telling sessions and real experience narration sessions have greatly encouraged the art of

critical and reflective thinking. Play ‘Justice under the Seize’, enacted, directed and

scripted by the faculty, students and scholars and presented to a gathering of more than 200

comprising Judges, lawyers, social activists, women’s rights organisations and common

citizens reinforced the pain, causes and remedies for making justice administration sensitive

and essential. The play “Gyan Purnima ki Aur” enacted by the CUH students under the

banner of the Group for the Promotion of Art, Culture and Heritage created ripples and

educated the large number of people during the University’s Journey for Change…

programme launched in Jan.-Feb., 2013 under the dynamic guidance of University’s founder

Vice Chancellor Prof. Mool Chand Sharma.

Skill Development and Capacity Building Programme

Realizing the need of the present requirements of professional development in market

economy and prepare the students to face challenges of globalization, a course in modular


29 | P a g e


form on Communicative English and Dialogue Building has been designed by the faculty

under the aegis of Skill Development and Capacity Building Cell. The programme is

based on interactive sessions spread over two months and having frequency of three sessions

per week. The sessions are interactive and responses were generated by involving the

students in extempore exercises.

Placement Cell

Looking into present industrial requirement, a Placement Cell has been established in the

University. 60% of the students enrolled for the batch 2010-12 have already been selected for

placement in corporate sector, 30% are applying for higher studies or competitive

examination while 10% are planning to start their own business. Similarly, Placement Cell

achieved significant milestones by facilitating the students to get appropriate placement in

year 2012-13 also.

Women Empowerment Cell

Women Empowerment Cell of the University was established in the campus on February 18,

2012. The cell was inaugurated in the benign hands of Mr. Justice S. K. Mittal, Executive

Chairperson, HALSA, accompanied by Mr. Justice N.K. Sanghi, Judge Punjab & Haryana

High Court and Prof. Mool Chand Sharma, Founder Vice-Chancellor. The idea of the cell is

the brainchild of the Founder Vice-Chancellor Prof. Mool Chand Sharma with the

objectives to provide empathetic counseling environment for psychological empowerment of

women students and local women and to combine knowledge and practice by facilitating

discussion on the latest issues from a rich variety of perspectives – by creative deconstruction

of women's experiences. The Cell is helping various underprivileged sections of the society.

Cell has helped the women and parents by providing Counselling regarding marital problems,

schemes regarding welfare of girl child, admission under Right to Education Act, 2009, about

health care schemes of pregnant women etc. To sensitise the society towards women issues

through effective methodology, Cell enthusiastically associated with Group for Promotion of

Art, Culture and Heritage in the “Journey for Change” (Jan. 28- Feb. 7, 2013). Plays related

to women discrimination were enacted at different Schools, Colleges and Universities to

sensitise students and teachers. On March 6, 2013 Women Empowerment Cell celebrated

International Women’s Day. On this day “Session on Deconstruction of Posters on the

theme of Women” was organised. Eight students from different Departments deconstructed


30 | P a g e


their handmade posters. Prof. D. C. Vashist moderated the session. Also, Women

Empowerment Cell of the University organized Mother’s Day to celebrate the essence of

‘motherhood’.

Legal Aid Clinic and Mediation Centre

Committing itself to the cause of society and to provide free legal aid to the needy, the

University has taken the initiative to launch Legal Aid Clinic as it feels that access to Justice

is the fundamental right of every citizen in order to realize the Constitutional goals of

Economic, Political and Social Justice, but due to the expensive, time consuming and

technocratic legal procedure the law generally remains inaccessible to the disadvantaged

sections. Under the visionary leadership of Hon’ble founder Vice-Chancellor Prof. Mool

Chand Sharma, CUH Legal Aid Clinic and Mediation & Counseling Cell were inaugurated in

the hands of Chief Guest Mr. Justice S.K. Mittal, Hon’ble Judge, High Court of Punjab and

Haryana cum Executive Chairman, Haryana State Legal Services Authority (HALSA). Mr.

Justice N.K. Sanghi, Hon’ble Judge, High Court of Punjab and Haryana, was the Guest of

Honour in the Inauguration ceremony held on 18th

February, 2012. On this occasion District

& Sessions Judge, Mahendergarh and Member Secretary, HALSA also accompanied the

Guests. The well-defined objectives of CUH Legal Aid Clinic are:

Devising various teaching modules and kinds of curriculum which can be used by

schools, colleges and other institutions for becoming carrier of legal awareness.

Promoting legal research by conducting survey to collect data regarding socio- legal

problems.

Assisting vulnerable segment of the society like senior citizens, children, women,

workmen etc. for realizing their rights.

Assisting needy people in various kind of legal drafting.

Encouraging the concept of Alternative Dispute Resolution including mediation and

conciliation for amicable settlement of disputes.

Building partnership & cooperation with various legal services authorities and

institutions including NALSA, HALSA, National & State judicial Academies.

CUH Legal Aid Clinic with Department of Law of Central University of Haryana organized a

Panel Discussion on the eve of ‘Constitution Day Celebration’ on the theme of ‘Relevance of

Indian Constitution in the Changing Times’ on Nov. 26, 2012.


31 | P a g e


Department of Law and CUH Legal Aid Clinic of Central University of Haryana organized

Colloquium on the eve of ‘Human Rights Day Celebration’ on the theme of ‘Journey of

Human Rights’ on Dec. 10, 2012. Also, CUH Legal Aid Clinic actively participated in the

Orientation Programme organised by the University in the month of August and oriented the

students about their basic Rights and Duties and the role of legal aid and CUH Legal Aid

Clinic for legal empowerment.

Discussion Group

Knowledge generation and its sharing and dissemination is key to the development and

growth of any society. Even though knowledge generation may take place elsewhere as well,

but the institutions of higher education have a special role and are in fact under obligation to

work in this direction.

Discussion Group provides a platform to the students and faculty to discuss and deliberate

contemporary issues, challenges and themes. Since it’s a university level platform, the

Discussion Group provides an opportunity of interacting upon some issues of contemporary

significance across the disciplines i.e., it provides an opportunity to discuss the theme in a

multi-disciplinary perspective which help emerge a holistic view about the issue.

Moreover, it also generates a strong research base while the academia is addressing the

emerging issue in question because deconstruction of a theme contributes to research. Also,

the frame and format adopted by the discussant in the process helps generate awareness about

methodological issues among the knowledge seekers.

Besides the larger objective of generating and sharing knowledge, facilitate research in a

multi-disciplinary cult, the process of mulling upon the theme also helps to sharpen:

- Communication skills

- Oratory skills

- Analytical skills

- Judgmental skills

- Research Skills

We are conscious that many more and better initiatives are being executed elsewhere, above

are only our modest endeavours and we have also miles to go and miles to go.
