Shiv Nadar University - [SNU]

The undergraduate curriculum at Shiv Nadar enables students to pursue a Major and take multiple electives from across disciplines. This freedom to design unique pathways helps bring out the best in every student and enables them to develop capabilities that are important for their success. The result is an empowered, intellectually self-confident citizen with an enhanced capacity for thinking through complexity, problem-solving, collaboration, creativity, and innovation.

The multidisciplinary curriculum is one central pillar of the education we offer. Students acquire expertise in a domain (their Major) but simultaneously are required to take a wide range of courses outside their Major.

At Shiv Nadar, our mission is to foster an interest in research from the undergraduate level. The Opportunities for Undergraduate Research (OUR) program enables students to undertake research projects with faculty members in any discipline.

The Office of the Dean of Academics has the responsibility for developing and implementing the academic and administrative policies about the programs and students of the University, in accordance with the University's mission to "help students acquire and develop knowledge, skills, and leadership qualities relevant in the 21st Century and beyond.

The multidisciplinary curriculum is one central pillar of the education we offer. Students acquire expertise in a domain (their Major), but at the same time are required to take a wide range of courses outside their Major. The University’s undergraduate program provides students with the flexibility to pursue Major-Minor combinations as well. For example, Shrey Jain, recognized as a '30 under 30' by Forbes Asia, combined his Major in Electrical and Communication Engineering with a Minor in History.

At Shiv Nadar, our mission is to foster a love for research right from the undergraduate level.
