Vice-Chancellor's Address

Chief Guest, Hon'ble Mr Justice Dipak Misra, Former Chief Justice of India; Chancellor, Mr V Daulet Singh; Members of the Governing Body, Mr Avdhesh Mishra, Mr Shiv Saran Mehra, Pro-Chancellor, Prof. Prem Vrat, distinguished colleagues on the dais, invited dignitaries, members of the press, faculty and staff, parents, dear students, ladies and gentlemen. Let me begin by saying good evening to everybody, and thank you for being here with us.

To begin with, I wish to thank our Chief Guest, Mr Justice Dipak Misra, Former Chief Justice of India, for sparing his valuable time and for his consent to be the Chief Guest at this solemn occasion.

It is an honour and privilege for me to welcome you to the Seventh Annual Convocation of the University.

Sir, the University has come a long way since its inception in 1996, continuously evolving and challenging conventions in tune with the requirements of the 21st century. We not only keep pace with various advancements, but also strive to visualize future requirements and reorient our curricula accordingly. In a span of a few years, we have grown to be one of the foremost educational institutions in North India. The University ranked in rank band 101 to 150 in the Engineering Category and rank band 151-200 in University Category in the NIRF Ranking released in April 2018 by MHRD. The University ranked 2nd All India in the Swachhata Ranking 2018 by Govt of India. The NorthCap University was accredited in May 2016 by the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) for a period of five years i.e. 2016-2021. Accreditation Services for International Colleges (ASIC), UK reaccredited the University in the category of 'Premier' Universities with 'Commendable' Grades, for 2016-2020. The accolades by various organizations, our consistent top rankings in different surveys, a good placement record of students in reputed organizations – all give us the impetus to further improve ourselves.

Sir, I am pleased to present before you the Annual Report for the year 2018 of our University which is tabled before you. As the detailed Annual Report is in your hands, I shall only touch upon some of the salient features, defining our sustained focus on quality and the efforts we made during the year 2018. The University offers programmes in a wide range of professional fields in diverse areas of Engineering, Applied Sciences, Management and Law, at Undergraduate, Postgraduate and PhD levels approved by relevant bodies and endorsed by the Haryana State Government and the University Grants Commission, Govt of India.

The University plays a crucial role in preparing students for a sound professional career. We strive to empower our youth capital with skills, abilities and attitude that will enable them to win deals, drive decisions and go on to become leaders and influencers and determine the fate of companies. To showcase students' skills, abilities etc. to potential employers, 'E-portfolio'- a unique initiative has been started at the University. It helps to identify students' interests in the first year itself and encourages them to develop these areas for enhanced employability. We have been able to achieve an enviable placement record, both nationally and internationally of over 90% of eligible students of Class of 2018 being placed in core and other companies from the campus. To enhance placements, NCU has taken a new initiative to facilitate evaluation of students' employment readiness and gap analysis by outsourcing it to the companies 'Aon CoCubes' and 'Youth4Work' which do third party assessments for BTech graduating students, on behalf of hiring companies. In addition to providing student-centric deliverables like assessment scores and improvement areas, it also helps to generate employment leads for the students with its empanelled companies.

The University's focus is on building and strengthening association with industries and the Government for community development programmes and for providing opportunities to students in India and abroad. Context Learning has been introduced to help bridge the divide between classroom learning and the rapidly changing real world of newer technologies.

The University ranked in rank band 101 to 150 in the Engineering Category and rank band 151-200 in University Category in the NIRF Ranking released in April 2018 by MHRD. The University ranked 2nd All India in the Swachhata Ranking 2018 by Govt of India. The NorthCap University was accredited in May 2016 by the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) for a period of five years i.e. 2016-2021. Accreditation Services for International Colleges (ASIC), UK reaccredited the University in the category of 'Premier' Universities with 'Commendable' Grades, for 2016-2020. The accolades by various organizations, our consistent top rankings in different surveys, a good placement record of students in reputed organizations – all give us the impetus to further improve ourselves.

Sir, I am pleased to present before you the Annual Report for the year 2018 of our University which is tabled before you. As the detailed Annual Report is in your hands, I shall only touch upon some of the salient features, defining our sustained focus on quality and the efforts we made during the year 2018. The University offers programmes in a wide range of professional fields in diverse areas of Engineering, Applied Sciences, Management and Law, at Undergraduate, Postgraduate and PhD levels approved by relevant bodies and endorsed by the Haryana State Government and the University Grants Commission, Govt of India.

The University plays a crucial role in preparing students for a sound professional career. We strive to empower our youth capital with skills, abilities and attitude that will enable them to win deals, drive decisions and go on to become leaders and influencers and determine the fate of companies. To showcase students' skills, abilities etc. to potential employers, 'E-portfolio'- a unique initiative has been started at the University. It helps to identify students' interests in the first year itself and encourages them to develop these areas for enhanced employability. We have been able to achieve an enviable placement record, both nationally and internationally of over 90% of eligible students of Class of 2018 being placed in core and other companies from the campus. To enhance placements, NCU has taken a new initiative to facilitate evaluation of students' employment readiness and gap analysis by outsourcing it to the companies 'Aon CoCubes' and 'Youth4Work' which do third party assessments for BTech graduating students, on behalf of hiring companies. In addition to providing student-centric deliverables like assessment scores and improvement areas, it also helps to generate employment leads for the students with its empanelled companies.

The University's focus is on building and strengthening association with industries and the Government for community development programmes and for providing opportunities to students in India and abroad. Context Learning has been introduced to help bridge the divide between classroom learning and the rapidly changing real world of newer technologies.

University, was ranked 2nd amongst the Cleanest Higher Educational Institutions in the Country in the Category 'University (Non Residential)'. The University won this award for Maintaining, Promoting and Encouraging the culture of 'SWACHHTA' in Higher Educational Institutions in the Country.

The University takes care of not only meritorious students but is also providing Value Added Courses with training modules for weak/slow learners. This is helping in improving their skill sets and makes them feel good not only at the University but also enhances their employment opportunities. The University recently started a Parent Information System which keeps the parents informed about the progress of their wards. The University has established a Thought Lab with the aim of developing a positive attitude, reducing negative energy, stress and improving overall development of students and staff. Channelizing thoughts effectively will improve the learning experience of our students. Another initiative taken during the year was to decentralize governance of the University for which Sub-Committees have been established having representation from the Management, faculty and students to oversee academic and non-academic functions and to evolve and take action as and when required, without delay.

NCU is an environmental friendly institution. Campus-wide initiatives are committed to the green movement such as energy conservation; use of solar energy with the installation of a 150 KW rooftop solar PV system with a net metering facility; a comprehensive rain water harvesting system; sewage and waste water treatment plants etc. To increase its green foot print, a vibrant and green garden is maintained. For the 17th consecutive year the University has been declared the winner of the HUDA garden competition in Gurugram. The University understands its responsibility towards society and conducts programmes to sensitize and mobilize community participation.

I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate our new graduates who are now on the threshold of beginning an exciting new phase of their relationship with the University as Alumni. Know that as alumni, you will carry the good name of The NorthCap University with you everywhere you go. Always remember that your personality, conduct and behaviour ought to do credit to the University. NCU's vibrant alumni network has made its mark in India and overseas by attaining leadership positions in corporations, creating successful ventures and co-founded several successful companies. Our alumni are very important ambassadors and friends of the University, and can make an important contribution to the University in many areas, for example, by promoting our organization and the opportunities we provide for quality learning, research and preparation for careers as well as you offering your own support, advice and mentoring the current students.

In enabling your education and development we have strived to build the next generation of empowered citizens with sound discretion and conduct, who will not just be a trailblazer in their own right but will also enhance the prestige of their University and the country. Keep yourself on the path of steady growth. Your graduation is not the end of your learning but rather the start of a lifelong journey of continuous learning.

Today, as you leave, your biggest takeaways will not just be your marks and your degrees but the experiences you have had, the relationships you built and the things you learnt about yourself. We urge you to never forget your alma mater, stay in touch, contribute back and do whatever you can to further its glory. We wish you all a bright future and a meaningful life ahead. I once again congratulate each one of you on your achievements and on behalf of this unique institution, wish you every happiness and success in the great adventure of life and urge you to dedicate yourselves to the service of the nation and humanity.

May God bless you!

Library & Information Resource Centre

The University campus located in a clean and pollution-free environment is spread over 10 acres, with a covered area of over 32,000 square metres which amply caters to all its academic and administrative needs. The excellent academic infrastructure consists of over 60 classrooms, 18 tutorial rooms, 71 labs, 25 workshops, faculty cabins, seminar hall, conference rooms, media room, a 430 seat state-of-the-art auditorium with a well-equipped Green Room for participants and a double basement parking. Departments, laboratories and facilities have been further strengthened during the reporting year.

The open-air Amphitheatre next to the sports ground is used extensively for various university functions, club and professional society activities. Many student groups are dedicated to community service and social action. The office of students' activities serves as a living-learning centre for students to coordinate a broad range of social, cultural, intellectual, educational and leadership programmes which are conducted throughout the year. It has sports facilities for nearly all indoor and outdoor sports. The cricket-cum-football ground is arguably one of the finest grounds in the NCR, with floodlight facilities for night sports. An air-conditioned two-storeyed cafeteria, student centre and Incubation Centre, covering an area of more than 15,000 sq ft, provides a unique experience to faculty and students alike. It has been designed with modern interiors and energy efficient concepts. NCU also has a branch of the Syndicate Bank with an ATM operating from its premises for the convenience of its faculty and students. In addition, there is also a Nestle and a Coco Cola outlet. The University provides hostel facilities to over 125 students. The rooms are well-furnished, and the hostels also have a 24-hour power back-up system, treated water, Wi-Fi, intercom, indoor sports facilities, a central kitchen, entertainment and recreational facilities, and a bus to carry students to and from the University. The New building provides state-of-the-art classrooms, besides area for student activities and faculty rooms.

NCU is committed to the green movement. Campus-wide initiatives at reducing, reusing and recycling are helping it achieve a green code of living:

• Use of renewable energy: Based on green audit, installation of 150 K W rooftop solar PV system with net metering facility - possibly the first and only university to install it.

• Energy Conservation: LED lighting, false ceilings to reduce heat load, as well as abundant natural light help make the building energy efficient.

• Water harvesting: Rain water harvesting system with pipes going to 300 feet below ground level.

• Sewage management: 100 KLD sewage treatment plant to ensure zero discharge to municipal sewer line with plans to use treated water for horticulture. Garbage handed over to MCG for proper disposal. No hazardous waste produced on campus.

• Efforts for Carbon neutrality: Green footprint through 6 acres of green area out of 10 acre campus area.

• Plantations: Lush green gardens all around the campus. 17th consecutive year NCU a winner of HUDA garden competition in Gurugram.

• Odd-even scheme for vehicles: Ongoing scheme for reducing emissions thereby reducing air pollution.

• E-waste management: Disposal of E-waste is an emerging global environment and a public health issue. All loosely discarded E-waste is collected in the University and handed over to external vendors.

The Indian Meteorological Department, Ministry of Earth Sciences, GOI, has selected NCU for setting up an Automatic Weather Station (AWS). It will provide accurate and real time data of minimum and maximum temperatures, rain measurement, humidity, wind speed and direction, pressure, solar radiation etc. This will be beneficial to residents of Gurugram especially farmers as they will get to know about the weather conditions in advance. It will help students and faculty in research and developmental activities of atmospheric studies. AWS is expected to be installed in January 2019.
