\"\"<\/a>Mahatma Gandhi University has presented a forward-looking budget for the year 2026\u201327, focusing on skill-oriented education, entrepreneurship and research aligned with industrial needs. The budget projects an income of \u20b9658.7 crore, an expenditure of \u20b9685.7 crore and a deficit of \u20b927 crore. It aims to open new avenues for developing innovative technologies and strengthening the university\u2019s research ecosystem.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
A major highlight of the budget is the proposal to establish dedicated research centres to explore the potential of artificial intelligence. Special emphasis will be given to AI-driven initiatives, along with the setting up of a community radio station under the university\u2019s control.\u00a0<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
To boost advanced research, an international 3D printing and bioprinting centre will be established to support progress in tissue engineering, regenerative medicine and life sciences.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
The budget also proposes conducting a feasibility study in collaboration with the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology to explore opportunities for launching a satellite, with the objective of encouraging students to engage in space research.\u00a0<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
In addition, the common instrumentation system will be strengthened to allow shared use of costly research equipment, avoiding the need for separate purchases by individual laboratories.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Infrastructure development forms another key component of the budget. New hostels will be constructed for students and existing facilities will be upgraded. A flat complex for teachers and a bachelor\u2019s hostel complex for teaching and non-teaching staff are also proposed to improve campus living facilities.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
The budget was presented by Finance Sub-Committee Convener P. Harikrishnan at the Syndicate meeting chaired by Vice-Chancellor Prof. Dr. C. T. Aravindakumar.\u00a0<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
The Vice-Chancellor announced that the university has initiated steps, subject to government approval, to establish a constituent college for the first time in the state. He noted that this initiative would require a legislative amendment and that an application has already been submitted. The proposed college aims to integrate high-quality teaching with advanced research and introduce new and emerging areas of knowledge.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
