Gulbarga University, Kalaburagi

Gulbarga University, which has the jurisdiction over fourdistricts viz. Bidar, Kalaburagi, Raichur and Yadagiri, looked uponas an oasis of knowledge and wisdom in Hyderabad Karnataka,known as the most backward region in the state of Karnataka.It has emerged as a harbinger of positive social transformation,an instrument of progress, and a vehicle for inclusive andsustainable growth guided by its vision of excellence in highereducation, empowerment through knowledge, and weddedto the mission of equity, justice, harmony and progress. TheUniversity has far exceeded the benchmark it had set for itselfto achieve at its inception and the expectations of those whowere instrumental in its establishment. The University has asprawling green campus of 860 acres, 8 km away from citycentre, blessed and bestowed with pollution free thickvegetation. The University in its course of meaningful existenceand steady growth during the last thirty five years has carveda niche for itself in all disciplines of studies and research. At thesame time, the extension activities have enabled us to takethe campus to the community to meet the immediate needsof the community and tackle the problems of society at large.The establishment of PG Department of Environment studies,Bio Diesel Park laid on hundred acres of land with Bio Dieselproduction unit, and the Vermicompost unit are already inoperation. The proposed International Institute for Food,Energy and Water Security, MOU has already been signed withthe Colorado State University, USA for its establishment, couldbe termed as a monumental in scale and will give new directionin their effective management across the globe. The MOUwith universities of European Commission under ErasmusMundus- Svagata and FUSION Project, IMOU at WorldBiodiversity Congress, Thailand, are some of the landmarks thatthe University has achieved in the last few years. In terms ofinfrastructure and facilities, the University is one of the topranked Universities in the state, it has invested huge fundallocated by UGC, state Government and the HyderabadKarnataka regional development board. University has the stateof the art infrastructure for academics, sports, recreation,housing for students and staff, and central facilities like Library,USIC, Health Centre, Computer Centre, Language Lab,Multimedia Production Centre, as a result Gulbarga Universityhas become the sought after destination for an academicallyenriching and intellectually rewarding experience. “«zÉåAiÉÄÃCªÀÄÈvÀ” conveys the spirit of the University. This prospectusprovides information regarding the teaching, research anddevelopmental activities in the University for the benefit ofthe student community.

I wish a bright future for the student community.

It was againaround this period, Mahaveeracharya wrote his Mathematicalworks and Vijnaneshwara wrote his Mitakshara commentaryand an epigraph about him is preserved in Martur village, 22km from Kalaburagi.

The region has witnessed a profound revolutionarymovement during the 12th Century AD led by Basaveshwara. Itwas a movement of spiritual enlightenment, social equality,dignity of labour and respect for women. Purandara Dasa, arenowned poet, philosopher and founder of the Carnatik musicwho lived during the Vijayanagara Empire, belongs to this region.Subsequently, Raichur District became the cradle of severalpoets and philosophers in the ‘Dasa tradition’. The Madarasaestablished by Mohammad Gavan in Bidar acquired the statusof an University during 14th Century. Later Kalaburagi became abastion of the philosophical school of Suffism and produced avery eminent saint and scholar, Hazrat Khwaja Banda Nawaz inthe 15th Century. Kalaburagi is blessed with another famoussaint, Shri Sharanabasaveshwara in the 19th Century. Thus theregion has the potential to recapture this intellectual andspiritual leadership and Gulbarga University is endeavouring itsbest to provide necessary stimulus and institutional support inthis direction.

Ancient educational institutions in the form of Agraharas,Brahmapuris, Ghatikasthanas and Mathas flourished in this regionwhich followed traditional methods of teaching. Mathas wereresidential schools where the teacher and the taught livedtogether. Agraharas and Brahmapuris were settlement ofscholars and separate arrangements existed for holistic teaching.Ghatikasthana was meant for conferring degrees or certifyingscholarships. ‘Maha Agrahara Nagai”, the ancient

University of Nagai situated at Nagai, Chittapur taluka ofKalaburagi District was established during the Rasthrakuta andChalukya kings (993 AD). It is said that about 250 students,six teachers and a librarian (Saraswati Bhandari) were engagedin imparting education there. During 1058 AD, this “NagaiAgrahara” was converted into ‘Ghatika Sthana’

MATERIALS SCIENCE

The Department of Materials Science was established inthe year 2004. It has a well equipped state of the art laboratoryfor materials synthesis and characterization comprising basicand advanced equipments, modern experimental kits,instruments and systems for P.G. students and researchscholars. The students get trained in handling thesesophisticated equipments and instruments. Department hasbeen recognized for Teaching and Research in MaterialsChemistry under the UGC – Innovative programme. Departmenthas received major research projects from UGC, DST and DAE– BRNS.

Department has signed MOU with Premier ExplosivesLimited, Hyderabad, for Teaching and Research on High EnergyMaterials. Placement of students at Premier Explosives (PEL),is an added feature. The PEL’s R and D centre is recognized byGulbarga University, to carry our research on High EnergyMaterials leading to Ph.D. degree, awarded by GulbargaUniversity. Also, the Department is making all out efforts forplacements of students at different materials (cement materials,iron oxide, steel etc.,) and polymer based Industries in theregion and students have been absorbed at these industries.The Department is instrumental in collaborating with industrialorganizations for working on various aspects of materials ofmutual interest. The Department has close rapport with Nationaland International Institutes, Universities and R&D Laboratories,on thrust areas of Material Science.

Local and Regional Science, Pharmacy and EngineeringColleges have Academic and Research Interactions with the

Department. Also the Department is very keen and lookingforward to invoice many more materials - based industries intheir Academic and Research Programmes and job placementsto the students. A fellowship of Rs. 10,000/- per annum and agold medal to rank holder opting a theory paper-High EnergyMaterials, is one of the key features of this Department.
