Shiv Nadar University
Shiv Nadar University (SNU) is an excellent example of inter-disciplinary education where undergraduate students get to choose subjects before they finalise their specialisation. “Serious research, particularly in the sciences and engineering, is becoming expensive. The public and private sectors should join hands to tackle these critical issues, because we have the brainpower, but excellence needs careful nurturing,” says Rupamanjari Ghosh, Vice-chancellor, SNU. With the aim of promoting life skills through education, SNU offers undergraduate and postgraduate courses in engineering, natural sciences, humanities and social science and business management. Rigorous classroom teaching, round-the-clock interaction among students from different disciplines and faculty that follows a single dictum “good researchers make good teachers” makes SNU one of the premier research institutions.
