THE UNIVERSITY
Guru Nanak Dev University was established at Amritsar on November 24, 1969 to mark the 500th birth anniversary of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji. The objectives of the University are to make provision for imparting education and promoting research in the humanities, learned professions, sciences especially of applied nature and technology. Studies and research on the life and teachings of Guru Nanak, promotion of Punjabi language and spreading education among educationally backward people are the other commitments. Spread over about 500 acres towards the west of Amritsar town, the University presents a picture of modern architecture. It has 37 academic departments, two regional campuses at Jalandhar and Gurdaspur and three constituent colleges also at Jalandhar, Niari (Gurdaspur) and Mukandpur (Nawanshahr) True to its motto gu r igAwn dIpk auijAwrIAw (Gurus Wisdom Illumines All), the University has taken long strides in spreading the message of the Guru and promoting education in such fields as sciences, arts, management, information technology, industrial technology, environment, planning and architecture. Recently, the University has diversified its teaching and research programmes and offers a comprehensive range of general and applied courses including self-financing courses. The curricula of all the courses have been revised and updated to meet the growing needs of the society. Admission to all the courses is made strictly on the basis of National, State and University level entrance tests. There are about 6000 students on the rolls. The University is also monitoring the teaching programmes of about 150 affiliated colleges located in Amritsar, Tarn Taran Jalandhar, Nawanshahr, Kapurthala and Gurdaspur districts. A number of skill development and job oriented courses have been initiated to make our youth more employable.

The University is rated one of the top by the national and multinational companies and it offers oncampus/off campus placements. To promote research in frontier areas of knowledge, almost all the Departments have been provided with independent computer facilities and departmental libraries. The University is equally aware of creating necessary facilities for recreation and all round development of its students and faculty. It has Department of Youth Services, National Service

Amardeep Singh Shergill Memorial College, Mukandpur (SBS Nagar) was taken over by Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar on July 4th, 2007 as a Constituent College with the mission to provide quality education to the rural deprived youth. The University is in process to establish this institution as its Rural Regional Campus. In the first phase the professional courses like M.C.A (Three Year) and M.B.A (F.Y.l.C) were started from the academic session ( 2008- 2009). MBA (two years) is being started from current session. The College was established in 1994 in memory of Amardeep Singh Shergill, an illustrious student of London School of Economics who passed away in prime of his youth. He was the only son of S. Gurcharan Singh Shergill, an NRI from England. Instead of getting subdued in grief, the father decided to serve noble cause of spreading the light of knowledge amongst rural youth. The College is situated in Mukandpur, a small town in District SBS Nagar. It is about 10 Kms from Banga, 22 Kms from Phagwara and 22 Kms from PhiIlaur.

There is a separate Seminar Hall with a seating capacity of 170 persons. Hostel facility for 80 girls is also available. Gymnasium with its latest imported machines is a cynosure of all the eyes.
