Why is NAAC Accreditation Important for a University?

National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) is an autonomous institution of the University Grants Commission (UGC) that assures ‘quality’ as the defining element of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in India. NAAC functions through its council comprising of influential educational administrators, policy makers and senior academicians from a cross-section of the Indian higher education system.

It conducts assessment and accreditation of Higher Educational Institutions such as colleges, universities or other recognised institutions in terms of their performance related to the educational process and outcomes, curriculum, faculty, teaching-learning process, research undertaken, governance, new initiatives, and student services. On fulfilling the set parameters, NAAC scores the HEI on a 4 point scale that further denotes grade, and places them amongst the elite and prestigious Higher Educational Institutions of India.

Chandigarh University: NAAC Grade A+ Accredited University

Chandigarh University (CU) scored a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 3.28 on 4 point scale and became the first university in the state to be evaluated by the NAAC as per the revised scheme, which has made the entire process of accreditation even more stringent and challenging. The A+ grade has placed us amongst India’s most elite Higher Educational Institutions which is maintaining top standards in delivering and disseminating the quality education to its students.

Established in 2012, CU has become the youngest university of the country be Assessed and Accredited by NAAC and has been granted A+ grade in the first cycle itself. In addition, Chandigarh University has become the only private university in India to bag A+ grade in the first cycle of the accreditation process and has also become the only state private university of Punjab to be accredited by NAAC.
