From the Vice Chancellor’s Desk

It is my privilege and pleasure to present the report of activities of Central University of

Karnataka, Kalaburagi through this Tenth Annual Report from 1st April 2017 to 31st March 2018.

This growing University is trying to establish its credentials as an institution where learning,

research and publications are pursued with great zeal to achieve the objectives enshrined in

the Indian constitution. The University has initiated many novel ideas of academic and

research interest to put the University on path of excellence in all its pursuits and endeavours.

The University, since its inception in 2009, has been gaining from strength to strength as a

result of sustained interest and efforts of the previous Vice Chancellors: Prof. A. M. Pathan,

Prof. S. Chandrashekhar, Prof. S. S. Murthy and Prof. M. N. S. Rao. The CUK community has

witnessed significant positive changes in terms of both people’s participation and incremental

growth leading to healthy changes in the University. Because of the untiring and sustained

efforts of our former Vice Chancellors, this University has been moving forward to realize the

dream of making this University a premier national University with international

reorganization and at the same time addressing the core issues of sustainable development and

progress of the region.


7

The University has been expanding rapidly with the stated objective to realize the goals

mentioned in the 12 t h plan proposals for higher education. The University is scrupulously

following necessary guidelines of UGC, MHRD, and Govt. of India on educational policies and

programmes.

The University is well aware of the challenges of the contemporary India and the world in

establishing a quality educational institution. It is heartening to note that the system is

committed to bring all the required changes to achieve this goal. Diversity in language, culture,

belief, tradition, knowledge-systems and way of life, which mark the inclusive secular character

of this country and make it unique in the whole world, is being reflected in the University.

The CUK family is truly a mini Bharat. The University, primarily nourishing Post Graduate

and Research programmes, is offering courses in Kannada, Hindi, English, Economics,

Commerce, Business Studies, Psychology, Social Work, Geography, Geology, Physics,

Mathematics, Computer Science, Chemistry and Engineering. The University also offers Dual

degree courses in Engineering and Applied Sciences with are unique and among the first of its

kind in India. The University has introduced research programmes in Classical Language

Kannada and Linguistics. Establishment of Centre for Endangered Languages will cater to the

study and research of Endangered Languages in India. Departments in the pipeline are

Folkloristic and Tribal Studies, Music and Fine Arts and Department of Education.

It is a matter of satisfaction that the University after i t moved into its own campus, on 30th

November 2013, whole lot of activities in the Academic, Administrative, Research, Community

Development, Regional Development, Rural Development frontiers have been taking place.

The University infrastructure expansion and stabilization is high on the agenda. A state of the

art library with modern facilities and user friendly atmosphere and nice ambition has started

operating from the Central Library premises.

CUK community is being established in the campus with residential accommodation availability

for its employees and students. Campus post office has stated operating. 24/7 ambulance

service has been made available for the University community. The University has initiated

many clean and green activities for making this 654 acres campus, a clean, green and

sustainable campus. On these lines, large scale plantations have been initiated along with a

research and demonstration centre on Biofuels. Water harvesting structures across the School

buildings have been constructed. On the roof top of the Administrative building, solar panels

have been laid to tap the solar energy and augment the electricity supplies with an on grid

system.

As per the mission and vision of Govt. of India in general and Central University of

Karnataka in particular, we are committed to making this University truly world class institution

of higher learning, research and innovation.

discover, develop, and responsibly manage minerals, energy resources, and other earth resources

such as groundwater. Geological knowledge enables to ensure a sustainable development of natural

resources and the use of these resources responsibly.

The courses offered by the Department cover a wide range of core courses in geology and allied

subjects. It provides foundation for the study of fundamental geologic methods and problems, both

in the laboratory and in the field. It includes instructions in geomorphology, sedimentology,

hydrogeology, geochemistry, stratigraphy, mineralogy, petrology, geostatistics, geophysics, remote

sensing, environmental geology, economic geology, geophysical principles and geoinformatics.

These courses are designed such that they blend traditional basics of earth sciences with the

DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY AND ARCHAEOLOGY

INTRODUCTION

Historical study always provides an outstanding preparation for informed citizenship in an

increasingly complex and interdependent world and lays a firm foundation for many career

objectives. The Department of History strives for national and international recognition for

providing instruction at the post graduate and research level about the importance of

understanding the past in any society, and for teaching them critical, analytical and research

skills applicable to career paths. It has a globally accepted curriculum with world-class standards,

so that any degree earned here would have international value. With a strong focus on

research, the department pursues evidence-based research both at the faculty level as well as

through the research scholars. The department of History offers P.G. & PhD Courses and strives

for national and international recognition by providing quality education with understanding

critical, analytical and research skills. The range of teaching and research includes Ancient,

Medieval, Modern & Contemporary Indian History, inquiries into the polity, economy,

society and culture since the earliest times in a pan Indian, integrated and interdisciplinary

perspective. The P.G. programme is more interactive and interdisciplinary by giving more

emphasis on archaeology and numismatic into it. The most attractive feature of the P.G

programme is that is structured flexibly to achieve breadth while permitting students to

specialize in an area that is of a particular interest. The research scholars are encouraged to

peruse innovative and meaningful historical researches that contribute to the popular and

scholarly understanding of the past. Students will be encouraged to explore new areas by

taking courses that focus on periods and regions with which they are not familiar.

The department has good relationship with premier institutes like Deccan College and

Indian Institute of Research in Numismatic studies for the support and field training of PG

students. Good exposure will be given to the students through visiting archaeological sites,

participating in excavation, workshops and practical training. In addition to these regular

programmes, the department is also offering elective/allied courses across all other departments

and schools on following topics Ancient, Medieval, Modern India and freedom Movement.

takes history beyond the disciplines. The Department is dedicated to providing quality education

to all who want to acquire critical thinking, skill and innovative research in history. The

SCHOOL OF PHYSICAL SCIENCES

INTRODUCTION

School of Physical Sciences was started in 2012 with the Departments of Physics and Mathematics

as its constituents. The primary goal of the School is to provide high quality education in various

domains of Physics and Mathematics. The academic programmes of the School of Physical

Sciences are aimed at creating an environment that promotes research and innovation. The School

is creating high quality infrastructure in terms of well qualified faculty, well equipped laboratories,

computational facilities and high-quality learning materials in various domains of Physics and

Mathematics. This infrastructure would be utilized to create motivated young scientists and

mathematicians capable of contributing to a “Knowledge Society”. Towards this end the School of

Physical Sciences offers programs leading to M.Sc. and PhD degrees. Prof. G. R. Naik is the Dean

of School of Physical Sciences. The School consists of the following Departments:

1. Department of Physics

2. Department of Mathematics


121

DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS

INTRODUCTION

The Department of Physics offers a 2 year (4 semesters) Master’s degree program to prepare

students for a career in teaching and research. Students will not be allotted any branch of

specialization in Physics at the time of admission. The first two semesters will be devoted to the

study of foundation courses in Physics. During semester II and III the students will have the

freedom to study subjects of his/her choice under the guidance of a faculty advisor. The fourth

semester is set apart exclusively for a dissertation project. The entire curriculum is designed to

prepare a student to enter a research career in multi-disciplinary areas of science and technology in

research organizations and industry. The program emphasizes on developing scientific and

innovative spirit, instilling professional ethics and spirit of service to the society.

The most attractive feature of the M.Sc. program is the freedom given to the students to decide

about domain specialization during the 2nd year of their studies. They would be guided to select

from a basket of elective courses focused on a major domain of Physics. They would also have the

opportunity to study cross-disciplinary subjects depending on their interest. Thus, the students

would be well prepared to contribute to research in multi-disciplinary fields of contemporary

interests. Another prominent feature of the M.Sc. program is the Dissertation project to be carried

out in the 4th semester. The students will be allotted a project at the end of the 2nd semester and

they would be required to explore the project topic by self-study during the 3rd semester. At the

end of this study they would be required to submit a project proposal to carry out a project in the

final semester. This study would be carried out under the supervision of a faculty advisor. The

project itself can also be carried out in a prominent research organization in India. Thus the project

would provide the students with research experience to enable them to continue further into the

PhD Program.
