Governance

JAIN (Deemed-to-be University) is guided by a robust governance framework led by the Board of Management, the University’s highest statutory authority, with membership in alignment with UGC guidelines.

The Planning and Monitoring Board meets regularly to assess the implementation of policies and strategize new initiatives for the University’s development.

Financial operations are overseen by the Finance Committee, which manages budget approvals and scrutinizes audited accounts to ensure fiscal responsibility.

Academic standards are upheld by the Academic Council, comprised of members from renowned institutions, which advises on regulations, curriculum, and syllabi. The Vice Chancellor chairs this Council.

Each faculty includes a Board of Studies, featuring domain experts from industry and academia, responsible for reviewing and recommending enhancements to academic programmes, promoting excellence and relevance across disciplines.
