On the 8th of January 1947, the University of Rajputana appeared like a little star on the educational horizon of pre-independent India. That little star, now called the University of Rajasthan is shining "like a diamond in the sky." Having acquired the status of University with Potential for Excellence, today, the University celebrates its 68th Foundation Day. Over the years the University has... redefined itself keeping in mind the changing trends of the educational system.
Dharmo Vishvashya Jagatah Pratistha “Dharma is the firm foundation upon which the entire Universe stands”. Promotion of excellence in education and research by inculcating independent critical thought and scientific temper. Promotion of interdisciplinary research on convergence of science and technologies. Pursuit of high quality research pertaining to economy, social development, languages, arts, culture, energy and environment. Establishment and expansion of academic links and research collaborations with national and international institutions. Creation and strengthening of infrastructure for global competence.
Critical analysis of existing social hierarchies and construction of new models of sustainable development, equity and gender justice. Preparing Students for Careers in Science, Social Science, Humanities, Commerce, Management, FineArts, Sports and Engineering & Technology. The University was granted an annual grant of Rs.2.5 lacs by the participating States of Rajputana. What is remarkable is that the States made it clear that the "acceptance of the grant will in no way detract from the autonomy of the University and its freedom to organise its teaching and administration as to embody in them the highest conception of University life." The University has made a significant contribution in the field of higher education. A peep into the past has many interesting features to reveal its progressive and dynamic outlook since its very beginning. The foundations laid for this University are deep and strong as is amply borne out by the following extract from the address delivered by Shri J. C. Rollo, on the 28- July 1947 at the meeting of the Academic Council.
"This is the first meeting of academic council of the University. It is of happy significance that the first body to meet should be the Academic Council. It helps to emphasize the fact that this University is to be one in which academic considerations, academic responsibility, shall always come first. This Council is the academic conscience of the University; and, as the first person honoured with its Chairmanship, we venture to suggest that today and always the members may firmly maintain, at whatever cost, the highest standards and the soundest policy from an academic point of view. Finally, might we respectfully ask that from the beginning every member may exercise a free and independent personal judgment and may never accept the dictation of any group of persons; a habit that has proved ruinous to some Universities. In the University of Raj putana independence will not be dangerous.
