Maya Devi University is a state private university at Central Hope Town, Selaqui, in Dehradun district, Uttarakhand. Its institutional lineage comes from the Maya Group of Colleges, which the university traces to 2010. The group operated professional higher-education institutions for more than a decade before university status was created under the Uttarakhand Private Universities (Amendment) Act, 2024, Act No. 5 of 2024. The university presents itself as a multidisciplinary institution with academic activity in engineering, agriculture, management, applied sciences, pharmacy, hotel management, tourism, disaster management, commerce, animation and computer applications. This mix reflects the professional orientation of the predecessor colleges while giving the university a broader platform for interdisciplinary teaching, research and new programme development. Maya Devi University's statutory transition in 2024 shifted the earlier college group into a university governance framework regulated by the state and UGC system. The Selaqui campus emphasizes infrastructure, industry interface, research and skills-oriented education. Its development therefore combines a pre-university institutional legacy beginning in 2010 with a newer legal identity as a private university. That distinction is important when reading the source establishment year alongside the longer educational history of the sponsoring organization.
