Osmania University unveils 3-year, 21-point roadmap

HYDERABAD: The Osmania University on Friday unveiled its 21-point roadmap for growth of the university for the next three years.

Establishing civil services academy, revising the academic programmes, fostering a vibrant research culture, initiating student-centric initiatives, setting up a dedicated online-learning platform were among the 21 points the administration has chalked out to drive the growth and mission of the university after making an intensive analysis in consultation with diverse stakeholders.

Addressing a press conference here on Friday, OU vice-chancellor professor D Ravinder Yadav said new job-oriented UG and PG courses were being planned and special emphasis would be laid on communication skills.

“The university is firm on serving the primary stakeholders — students and research scholars — and proposes to set up new institutional wings like the civil services academy, reading room complex for students, and corporate relations directorate to interface with the industry for recruitments, internships, workshops, etc.,” the vice-chancellor said.

In view of the ageing infrastructure of the university, the administration said that the infrastructure development is also on the radar.
