Universities in India
Updated on: Aug 7, 2012
Emphasis on higher education in India can be understood by the number of universities currently present in India and the quality of education they provide. Today, there are a total of 481 universities in India out of which 254 are State Universities, 130 Deemed Universities, 58 Private Universities and 39 Central Universities.
The Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) is responsible for supervising the functioning of all the universities in India through its chief regulatory body- Universities Grants Commission (UGC). The other government organizations whose contribution for the upliftment of Indian educational scenario is worth mentioning are All India Council for Technical Education AICTE and National Assessment and Accreditation Council-NAAC.
With a view to bring in all the Indian Universities under one umbrella where the maximum possible information about these universities could be disseminated to the educational community all over the world - the National Network of Education has launched the Universities Hub. To put it briefly, this is envisaged to be an encyclopedia of all the Indian Universities.
