Institute of Advance Studies in Education Deemed University
of Gandhi Vidya Mandir, Sardarshahr, Rajasthan.
Introduction
IASE Deemed University is a unit of the non-profit charitable organization
registered in the name of Gandhi Vidya Mandir (GVM). Gandhi Vidya Mandir
is a very old and reputed philanthropic society working for the upliftment of
the downtrodden and the deprived populace of the desert region where
education is yet to spread. It had had blessings of the great leaders like
Acharya Vinoba Bhave, Dr Rajendra Prasad, Sardar Patel and the like. It had
started a Teachers’ Training College, among many other institutions for the
development and progress of the desert area.
The Teachers’ Training College progressed, expanded and became an Institute
of Advanced Studies in Education, and subsequently was granted the status of
the Deemed University by a Govt. of India notification no. F/9/29/2002-U.3
dated 25th June 2002, and the UGC notification no. F6-25/2001 (cpp.i) of 17th
July 2002, under Sec. 3 of the UGC Act as “Institute of Advanced Studies in
Education of Gandhi Vidya Mandir, Sardarshahr”.
Under the said Act, the University is empowered to confer degree, diploma
and certificate courses duly approved by its statutory bodies and as per list
specified and approved by the UGC. Thus it gradually diversified its courses
to include emerging areas such as Management, Paramedical, Technology,
Biotechnology etc in the context of rural and national development.
The IASE Deemed University of GVM, in pursuance of its aims and objects of
reaching education of different streams to unreached in nook and corner of the
country, mounted a variety of courses through regular and distance mode at a
very small fee to enable the deprived section to avail of higher education. It
must be made clear that whatever surplus is obtained through Distance mode
is deployed for increasing/enhancing the infrastructure and staff for on campus
and distance programmes with the underpinning that there is no profit
involved to either the University or its parent body, namely the GVM. It must
be made clear that the GVM has made available its buildings, land measuring
100 acres out of 1200 acres, and other infrastructure to the IASE Deemed
University. The IASE (D) University is an Ns EN ISO 9001: 2000 certified
organization.
THE ROOTS
The Institute of Advanced Studies in Education (IASE) Deemed University
has taken its present form after a sustained toil of more than five decades. Its
sponsoring society, GVM, had come into existence in 1950. It was
conceptualized as a rural University. Its foundation stone was laid by Dr.
Rajendra Prasad, the first President of India. The GVM is a conglomerate of
various public welfare and educational institutions including IASE (D)
University.
The GVM was a creation of the late Shri Kanhaiyalal Dugar, who after
embracing ‘sanyas’ came to be known as Swami Shri Ramsharanji. He was a
Page 23
man of vision and dedication, and an embodiment of universal humanism. He
donated his entire wealth for the cause of education and upliftment of the
downtrodden. Inspired by the Gandhian ideals and ethics, he became a
steadfast exponent of Ahimsa, Sarvodaya and Sarva-Dharma Sadbhav. His
emphasis on value education and Swavlamba is reflected in IASE (D)
University’s systems, courses and curricula.
Wedded to the Gandhian ideology, GVM has taken up the task of providing
quality education from pre-primary to doctoral level even to the students
belonging to the most deprived sections of society at affordable cost.
The activities of GVM are quite extensive. Apart from three senior secondary
schools and a number of other on-campus programmes, GVM is running 46
centres of basic literacy for rural boys and girls in the age group of 6-14 years,
benefiting over 2,000 students and over 10,000 boys and girls during the last
two decades, through 100 village centres. In short, GVM’s outreach
programmes in rural areas are quite innovative and beneficial, especially to the
socially, financially and geographically disadvantaged segments.
In fact, GVM is the nucleus – a central organization-around which a cluster of
schools, rural centres, out-reach programmes, etc. have flourished during the
last 50 years. The studies in higher education started firstly in 1953, through
Basic Teachers’ Training College, offering TTC course, as it existed then. In
1954, the course was replaced by Basic STC. The degree courses started in
1956 and post-graduate in 1958. Research (Ph.D) programme commenced in
1968. The ‘Institute of Advanced Studies in Education’ came into being under
the centrally sponsored Scheme of Education in 1993. It was formally
recognized as ‘Deemed to be University’ by the Government of India and the
UGC, in 2002. IASE is one of the premier Institutes of education in the
country today.
The IASE (D) University is the core constituent of GVM, entrusted with the
higher education portfolio providing all requisite autonomy and support.
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE IASE DEEMED UNIVERSITY:
With the overall aims and objectives of the parent body, GVM, the need for
expanding system of Higher Education in rural and remote areas using the
modern sophisticated technology in the educational delivery as also achieving

C. CRITERIA-WISE INPUTS
CRITERION I: CURRICULAR ASPECTS
1.1 Curriculum Design and Development
1.1.1
How are the institutional vision and mission reflected in the
academic programmes of the University?
Institute of Advanced Studies in Education (IASE) Sardarshahr was declared
as deemed university vide notification dated 25.6.2002. Its sponsoring society
Gandhi Vdiya Mandir (GVM) was founded in 1950 as a sequel to its founder's
dedication to the ideals of Mahatma Gandhi whose assassination spurred a
revolution in his heart and soul. His name was Shri Kanhaiyalal Dugar. Mr.
Dugar's idol was Mahatma Gandhi because of his faith in God, secular
approach and 'Vishwa Bandhutwa'. Shri Dugar went to Wardha and consulted
Acharya Vinoba Bhave and other Gandhians like Kaka Kalelkar, Kishorlal
Mashruwala, Krishnadas Jaju, Shriman Narayan Agarwal and Madalsa Ben.
For establishing the institution, some of them proposed Delhi, some Wardha,
some Jaipur, and so on. Finally they looked to Vinobaji who said
'Spread Light Where It Is The Darkest, Spread Education Were Illiteracy Is
The Highest'; the reference was obvious - Kanhaiyalal’s home town of
Sardarshahr, in the starkest desert region of Rajasthan. Shri Kanhaiyalal
Dugar, who, was a man of vision and dedication, an embodiment of universal
humanism. Inspired by Mahatma Gandhiji, he became an exponent of nonviolence and universal brotherhood. He dedicated his life to the cause of
education and upliftment of the downtrodden. After embracing ‘Sanyas’, he
came to be known as Swami Shri Ramsharanji.
A project was conceptualized there and the name of Gandhi Vidya Mandir was
decided. Devised as India 's first Rural University , its foundation stone was
laid in 1955, by Dr. Rajendra Prasad, the first President of India.
Swamiji, the Founder’s Vision:
1] To create future citizens with value based education adding to their
academic and overall personality growth. Inspired by the Gandhian ideals our
values are focused on Ahimsa, Sarvodaya and Sarva-dharma Sadbhav. These
values are reflected in the University’s system and course syllabus,
2] Rural development where barriers are broken, challenges overcome to
develop rural surroundings for a healthy and holistic lifestyle,
3] Rural Democratic awareness,
4] Community education.
GVM’s higher education programmes started in 1953 through Basic Teachers’
Training College, offering the TTC course, as it existed then. In 1954, the
course was replaced by Basic STC. Degree courses started in 1956,
postgraduate studies in 1958, and research (Ph.D.) programmes in 1968.
The University is quite conscious of legacy of Gandhi Vidya Mandir. GVM
whose varied services include social and rural welfare, disaster relief, non-
Page 26
formal education, vocational training in villages, among others, need to be
strengthened further as such activities inculcate a sense of social responsibility
and altruism into the minds of students—the nation’s future. Therefore, it is
imperative that IASE surge ahead hand-in-hand with GVM in furthering its
societal role. The existing outreach activities are set to double itself in the next
decade for the benefit of disadvantaged and rural masses.
It is our conviction that a man without vision is like a ship without a ruder.
There is a need to build citizens who can not only subsist but become valuable
human beings, for themselves, their families and society. Higher education
needs to come to terms with this over arching national and global reality. It
should be able to define its content, extent and methodologies from time to
time, which are basic ingredients for the future growth of higher education.
The educational system should not be divorced from the socio-economic and
cultural fabric of the country.
The importance of ethics and values in a student cannot be disregarded. In
order to meet the manifold changes and challenges in the emotional maladies
confronting society at large, the IASE Deemed University consciously
ingrains humanistic values into students at every step.
The existing syllabi and curriculum are carefully crafted in consonance with
the guidelines of UGC and other Statutory Bodies like NCTE, AICTE among
others. The structuring, restructuring and constant vigil over the curriculum
and its effective implementation is undertaken at IASE, making higher
education meaningful, socially relevant and career-oriented.
In coming years, the University has a vision to start Vocational programmes
(Skill development) in its lab schools as well as in the University at the
undergraduate/post graduate level.
1.1.2 Does the University follow a systematic process in the design and
development of the curriculum? If yes, give details of the process
(need assessment, feedback, etc.).
The deemed university has a well defined curriculum development process.
Initially courses were developed through consultative process with other
institutions /universities of the region. The curriculum renewal is a regular
activity through assessment of needs of emerging area identified by holding
seminars and workshops. Following steps are followed by all the
faculties/departments of the University to design and revise the curricula:
• The faculty members discuss need and design of curriculum in the
departmental meeting every year.
• At departmental level curricula of various universities, feedbacks of
stakeholders are put in a matrix.
• The course content is developed through discussion on various
aspects of the course, inputs from stakeholders and taking into
account prospective needs.
Page 27
•
The curriculum is designed by the faculty members considering the
guidelines and model curriculum of UGC, AICTE, NCTE and other
leading institutions.
• The curriculum is discussed in the Board of Studies (BoS) meeting
thoroughly and revised and then the recommendations of Board of
Studies (BoS) are placed before Academic Council. The Academic
Council after thorough examination sends its recommendation to
Board of Management (BoM) for approval.
• We involve experts in various field of specialization from BOS of
other universities. Ours is the first university to submit a 2 year
program for the B.Ed course to NCTE. Other universities are now
adopting approximately 50 % from the syllabus we have submitted.
• The M.A. in History course includes 30 % content on local history.
• Faculty from the Education department have created subject material
Which is being published in the form of handbooks for Teachers.
Process for introduction of Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) has been
started and is being implemented from next academic session.
1.1.3 How are the following aspects ensured through curriculum design
and development?
• Employability
• Innovation
• Research
• Employability
The curriculum is designed keeping in view the needs and requirements of the
society so as to make the students well equipped to handle the challenges in
real life situations. The syllabus are also designed and developed focusing the
syllabus of different tests conducted by the UPSC, RPSC, NET, GATE, SET,
CTET etc.
Besides, emphasis on practical training, visit to different industries, projects
and surveys ensures skill development and enhance competence of the
students.
• Innovation
The teaching and learning process is made highly participative and interactive
by using a mixed pedagogy i.e. lectures and tutorials, case study,
presentations, assignments, e-resources through university websites, special
lectures by experts from industry & academia. Technology is being used
effectively for improving access, equity and quality of higher education.
• Research
Most of the UG and PG curricula involve the component of research through
regular practical and field work. All UG level professional courses are having
final semester project works which are carried out under supervision of some
faculty member. Further, research based dissertations are an integral part of
some of our PG programs. In many programs students are also exposed to
minor and major projects and seminar/conference/workshop presentation.
Page 28
1.1.4 `To what extent does the University use the guidelines of the
regulatory bodies for developing and/or restructuring the
curricula? Has the University been instrumental in leading any
curricular reform which has created a national impact?
•
Departments consider the guidelines and model curriculum of UGC
and other Statutory Bodies of Government in developing,
designing and restructuring the course and the curriculum. We also
follow the rules and regulation laid down by the University/MoA to
developing and restructures the course curriculum.
•
The deemed university was pioneer in introducing entrance test for
Ph.D. program in 2006, which later on was mandated for all
universities by the UGC in 2009.
•
Ours was the first University, which drafted and introduced
computer as a teaching subject in B.Ed. program, which later on
was adopted by most of the Universities.
1.1.5. Does the University interact with industry, research bodies and the
civil society in the curriculum revision process? If so, how has the
University benefited through interactions with the stakeholders?
The University keeps up constant interactions with other Universities,
organizes industrial visits and training programs for its students to ensure
exposure to industry and rural area. In addition, the University invites
industrialists and scientists for conferences and workshops where they share
their rich experience in suggesting changes and improvements in the
curriculum to meet the changing demands of a dynamic world.

Academic Calendar –
• The University follows an Academic Calendar for its entire academic
processes duly approved by Academic Council:
Page 44
•
There are separate Semester-wise/ annual calendar for UG and PG
courses.
• The logistics of the semester-wise/annual calendar of events is based
on the following data/directions/feedback/steps.
1. Guidelines of Regulatory Authorities on academic working
days.
2. Schedule of announcement of the results of qualifying
examinations
3. Schedule of the Centralized Common Entrance Tests conducted
by different Govt./Private agencies.
4. Institutional planning and organisation of Teaching–learning–
evaluation
5. Feedback from students.
• Schedule into total scheme of Academic Calendar is mainly based
on three important provisions. They are as given:
i.
The Regulations of each course (UG or PG) specify the
frame work for academic schedule – Teaching Learning
and Evaluation. (The number of semesters,
working/teaching days, number of subjects – papers to
be taught, hours of instruction per paper, practical,
method of teaching and learning (practical, theory, field
work etc.), method of Continuous Internal Assessment,
Semester-End examinations, weightage for Continuous
Internal Assessment and Semester End Examinations and
method of assessment and declaration of results.
ii.
The Board of Studies prescribes the detailed syllabus for
a subject based on provisions of Regulations.
iii.
The Evaluation section, based on the logistics, prepare
the time frame for conducting examinations (exam
schedule, evaluation schedule, tabulation schedule, result
announcement schedule, marks card, ledger submission
schedule).
Teaching Plan –
The faculty members prepare lesson plans and maintain a record of the
schedules to ensure a smooth coverage of the syllabi. The course plan in
practical courses is more flexible to suit changing needs. Manuals available in
each laboratory serve to understand the facilities and capabilities of each
instrument/equipment.
• Based on the major provisions, as well as the steps followed for
preparing an annual calendar, teaching, learning and evaluation
schedule is planned, organised and implemented.

7.3.1 Give details of any two best practices which have contributed to
better academic and administrative functioning of the University.
1. The Mentor-Mentee System
The purpose of this practice is to foster a close rapport between the students
and the faculty, to provide guidance to students on all academic matters
besides personal counseling and to enhance the potentialities of the students.
The main focus of mentorship is to develop the all-round personality of the
students and to make them more professionally competent and responsible
citizens by the time they leave the thresholds of the University. Each faculty
member functions as a counselor for a group of students during the entire
period of their study in the University. The teachers assist the students to cope
with the curriculum, understand the University’s expectations of its students,
participate in co-curricular and extracurricular activities, solve personal issues,
as well as groom their skills and aid in personality development. In addition to
the mentor, students may also seek counsel from other faculty members.
Evidence of Success
This practice has led to a better sense of belonging and purpose for the
students as evidenced by the declining trend of absenteeism, and a perceivable
proactive involvement in the academic and other activities in the department.
For the teachers this has provided feedback and introspective review of
academic transactions.
2. Department wise Review Meetings
The goal of this practice is to formulate policies/design strategies to strengthen
the functioning of the departments of study in various dimensions. The issues
addressed in the meetings vary depending on their current relevance. For
example at the beginning of the academic year, assessment of enrolments in
the various programmes of study, anti-ragging measures, improvement of
infrastructural facilities in departments and hostels are given priority. Towards
the close of an academic year, stock taking is done on various academic
parameters and the way forward for the ensuing academic year is planned.
Several issues are addressed on a regular basis including lesson plan, quality
assurance in teaching, students’ performance, examination reforms, research,
Page 147
extension activities, energy conservation measures, gender sensitisation, and
general maintenance of the departments and surroundings.
Evidence of Success
The exercise has provided scope for introspection and need for improvement.
As a result of these meetings, all faculty members prepare lecture plans which
have improved the quality of teaching and time management. More teachers
have applied for projects.
Any other information regarding Innovations and Best Practices which
the University would like to include.
Decentralized Decision making by constituting Committees
The aim of this practice is to create a more inclusive ambience by
decentralization and to groom leadership at various levels. Various committees
have been constituted to address different issues in the University including
exam reforms, health service, Swachha Bharat, security, projects, purchase,
security, anti-ragging, sexual harassment, garden, book evaluation, hygiene
and sanitation to name a few.
Evidence of Success
This practice has led to more emotional investment on the job, sharing of
responsibility, better governance and quicker redressal and decision making.
