ISLAMIC UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

History and Governance
The Islamic University of Science and Technology was established by an Act of the Jammu and Kashmir State Legislative Assembly in November 2005. The Chancellor of the University is the Chief Minister, ex officio of the State, and its Board is the Board of Directors, ex officio, of the J&K Muslim Wakf Board. The apex executive authority of the University is its Executive Council, chaired by the Vice Chancellor. Its flat administrative structure comprises of four key executive departments consisting of the Office of the Vice Chancellor, the Office of the Finance Officer, the Office of the Registrar, the Office of the Dean of Academic Affairs and the Department of Estates. These units report directly to the Vice Chancellor.
Accreditations
The Islamic University of Science and Technology is recognized by the University Grants Commission (UGC) and its specified courses are approved by the All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE). It is a member of the Association of Indian Universities. During the academic year 2009–10, the University anticipates an enrollment of around 1,400 students. Currently, most students are from the Kashmir Valley, Jammu and Ladakh, but we expect to have a more varied student demographic in the coming years.
Community Initiatives
Social responsibility is an integral part of the culture and ethos of our University. We interact closely with the local Rotary Club and other organisations that have a social agenda. We regularly host events such as farmers’ awareness camps, health awareness programmes and community workshops to inculcate a sense of civic consciousness and duty amongst students.
Locations
The Islamic University of Science & Technology is located in the medieval town of Awantipora in South Kashmir, a 35-minute drive from Dalgate in Srinagar. Spread across 25 acres, just south of the famed saffron fields of Pampore, the picturesque campus has the Himalayan mountain range on one side and the Jhelum river on the other. The spectacular geography of the area is also the cultural crucible that has cradled three major religions – Buddhism, Hinduism and Islam. The University recognizes its responsibility to further this legacy by nurturing a spirit of dialogue and understanding within its community of learners.
Future Architectural Plan
The Governing Board of the University was given an initial presentation of the architectural plans in April 2007. It is estimated that the implementation of this plan will take three to five years to complete at a total project cost of Rs. 150 -200 crores. The University is currently in the process of sourcing funds to begin construction and has appointed a core fund-raising committee to initiate this effort. The plan will be implemented in a phased manner, so that construction activity does not interfere with the normal day-to-day functioning of the University. The completed project will include a state-of-the-art library, a multi-functional auditorium for 600 students, a mosque, hostels, housing units for faculty and administrative staff, a printing press, canteen, gymnasium and an amphitheatre, apart from all the usual facilities such as classrooms, lecture halls and a sports complex. The University will also have a medical centre and a health club. The architectural plan conforms to the University’s vision to create a garden of dialogue on campus. Students and teachers from different disciplines are given spaces to interact, constantly exchange ideas and make the University a dynamic place for inquiry and learning.
