International Human Values Cell:

At IKGPTU, we introduced a foundation course in Universal Human Values & Ethics (UHVE) in 2011, based on the long efforts in this area compiled at IIT Delhi’s National Resource Centre for Value Education in Engineering (NRCVEE). The course adheres to all the MHRD guidelines (universal, rational, verifiable & leading to harmony). Universal human values is based on the natural laws, on reality, as it is – in a way that anyone can understand on their own right, through self-exploration. Living accordingly enables one to live an informed, purposeful, happy and responsible life – as an individual, as a member of family, as a member of society and as an unit in nature/existence. In education, this input provides a universal basis for human values that supplements and provides direction to the current educational system. With a strong teaching methodology of self-exploration, the foundation course provides the essential guidelines for a humane society and helps to develop commitment for it. The content & process has been found to be quite effective. The typical course feedback is:

1. Attention on Mutual Prosperity versus Accumulation

2. Significant realization of the value of relationship – with family, colleagues, teachers & students

3. Clarity of Human Purpose, Purpose of Education and Purpose of Life

4. Teachers & students share an increased commitment toward teaching, a deeper sense of responsibility towards society, particularly their home village and towards nature. They express an increased sense of gratitude for their elders, their culture and their religion
