MAHARISHI ARVIND UNIVERSITY Summary
Maharishi Arvind University is a private university in Jaipur, Rajasthan, established under the Maharishi Arvind University, Jaipur Act, 2015. The Act provides a multidisciplinary statutory framework and identifies Arvind Bharti Vidyalaya Samiti as the sponsoring body. That society was registered in Jaipur in 1975, giving the university an educational-organizational lineage that predates university status by four decades. UGC records the university's establishment or gazette-notification date in 2015. The university is designed as a multi-faculty institution. Its statutory and institutional objectives cover engineering and technology, basic and applied sciences, management, commerce, social sciences and humanities, journalism and mass communication, library and information science, pharmacy, computer science, education, law, design and vocational education. The university emphasizes employability, research, innovation and interdisciplinary learning within a single private-university structure. The 2015 Act is an important anchor for understanding the institution because it formalized the powers, governance and academic scope of Maharishi Arvind University. The sponsoring society's 1975 registration provides the earlier organizational foundation. Since establishment, the university has developed teaching, examinations, student services and research activity in Jaipur while broadening programme offerings across professional and general fields. Its motto, centered on movement from ignorance toward knowledge, reflects the institution's educational philosophy. Maharishi Arvind University's profile therefore combines a long-standing sponsoring society with a comparatively recent statutory university and a broad multidisciplinary academic mandate. The university's 2015 Act explicitly permits a wide range of professional, scientific, humanities and vocational disciplines. Its sponsoring society's registration in 1975 provides a significantly older organizational history than the university itself. UGC records the university within Rajasthan's private-university framework. 29 October 1975 — Arvind Bharti Vidyalaya Samiti was registered in Jaipur as the organization that later became the university's sponsoring body. Establishment phase — University authorities, academic governance and administrative systems were organized under the 2015 Act.
