Message from Pro Chancellor’s Desk

As a young man, I would sit with my grandfather and see him working diligently towards his dream of a University and beyond. Over a period of time, I started to understand, in depth, what this dream meant for our country and for us all. Today, as pointed out by those close to me, I am a ‘chip off the old block.’ To be, to create, to establish and to add more to his dream, is what I aspire for.

Oriental University is the first self financed University of Indore, but we have established ourselves by providing the best of resources and lucrative options to a student, for higher education. We have a strong focus on holistic student development – improving skills, employability, making them industry ready, inculcating good values and discipline. This, along with various “tie-ups” with industries are few things which make me happy for the journey so far.

Indore being the financial capital of MP is strategic to our plan, as there is amazing growth in all sectors, from automobiles, to information technology, agro, food etc. Indore is fast developing as an educational hub too. We aim to create a triple helix model: the SMART environment that creates institutional links between academia, society and industry, by  adding more connections with industry leaders, to modify the curriculum and groom our students as per industry requirement.

I have learned so much in the past eleven years with the University and yet, it feels like the journey has just begun. I am certain that in today’s scenario we can broaden the scope of  education by offering more skill based and industry ready courses. I am on an ambitious drive, to provide top quality and affordable education to our students.

I wish you all the best for your career and life!!!
