A Special Note about the Programme Book

The University of Kelaniya is moving towards becoming the first university to

successfully adopt green practices in Sri Lanka. We are beginning to move towards a

‘paperless’ society. In keeping with the concept, we have decided to offer the essential

information that participants would require in print form. The rest of the information

is offered online. This year, the conference was organized using an online conference

management platform that facilitated a smooth organizing process and better data

management in registration and reviewing. We hope participants would appreciate our

new initiative.

The online programme: offers session information, time, date, author information and

title of abstract

The conference programme book: offers conference information, time, date and venue

Abstract and author information book: available online in PDF format offers full

author information

Online information will be available through the conference web site. All online

information will be accessible on your smart phone or iPad through the IPRC web

site. To obtain access to the IPRC web page, please scan the QR code. Wi-fi facilities

The Conference Venue

The University of Kelaniya has its origin in the historic Vidyalankara Pirivena, founded

in 1875 as a center of learning for Buddhist monks. It was one of the two great national

centers of traditional higher learning, heralding the first phase of the national

movement and national resurgence. With the establishment of modern Universities in

Sri Lanka in the 1940s and 1950s, the Vidyalankara Pirivena became the Vidyalankara

University in 1959, later the Vidyalankara Campus of the University of Ceylon in 1972

and, ultimately, the University of Kelaniya in 1978.

Today, the University of Kelaniya is one of the major national Universities. It is located

just outside the municipal limits of Colombo, in the ancient and historic city of

Kelaniya, on the north bank of the Kelani River. It has two major campuses, seven

locations, six faculties and four institutions. The University of Kelaniya has pioneered a

number of new developments in Higher Education. It was one of the first Universities

to begin teaching science in Sinhala, and also the first to restructure the traditional Arts

Faculty into three separate Faculties of Humanities, Social Sciences and Commerce and

Management. It also has several unique Departments not generally found in the Sri

Lankan University system and some Kelaniya innovations have been adopted

subsequently by other Universities. These include the Departments of Industrial

Management and Microbiology in the Faculty of Science; Departments of Linguistics,

Fine Arts, Modern Languages and Hindi in the Faculty of Humanities; and Mass

Communication and Library and Information Sciences in the Faculty of Social

Sciences. In the year 2016 a new faculty has been established, Faculty of Computing

and Technology.

In keeping with its historical root, the University is one of the national centers of

excellence in Pali and Buddhist Studies and related fields. It has long established and

well-developed Departments of Pali and Buddhist Studies (incorporating chairs in

Buddhist Civilization and Buddhist Philosophy), Sanskrit, Linguistics, Philosophy,

Sinhala, and Hindi, as well as the Postgraduate Institute of Pali & Buddhist Studies.

Kelaniya also maintains close links with the Buddhist and Pali University of Sri Lanka

(whose Vice-Chancellors have often been drawn from the University of Kelaniya

Faculty). Thus, the University of Kelaniya forms the centre of an academic complex,

specializing in modern developments in traditional disciplines. It also retains a close

link with its mother institution, the Vidyalankara Pirivena, whose Head is also the

Chancellor of the University. At the same time, the University of Kelaniya has a

modern and multi-cultural structure and perspective, with the Faculties of Science,

Medicine, Social Sciences, Humanities, Commerce & Management and Computing and

Technology and a strong base in modern languages, including the teaching of Chinese,

English, French, German, Hindi, Japanese, Russian, Tamil, and Modern Linguistics.

Presently engaged in extensive restructuring as it enters the 21st century, the University

of Kelaniya looks forward to a new phase in its 125-year history of development.

The Faculty of Graduate Studies

The Faculty of Graduate Studies is one of the 7 faculties at the University of Kelaniya.

It offers a variety of programmes, ranging from postgraduate diploma level to doctoral

level. Currently, there are over fifty-two programmes offered by the various Faculties

and institutions, leading to a Master’s degree. Some of the courses are based only on

course work, while others are based on research, and some others are a mix of course

work and research. Course work at FGS means face-to-face teaching as in a traditional

university. These courses are usually conducted during weekends or evenings, to enable

people who are already employed to enhance their knowledge and skills. In order to be

more accessible, the FGS hopes to launch distance learning modules in the near future.

Postgraduate study at MPhil (Master of Philosophy) and PhD (Doctor of Philosophy)

levels are possible in each Board of Study of the Faculty of Graduate Studies,

University of Kelaniya. These programmes tend to build on the skills acquired at

undergraduate and Master’s levels. They involve an applicant being assigned to a

supervisor for guidance in conducting research. The applicant and supervisor/s work

together to achieve the objectives of the research programme.
