discerned in the students that it attracts not only from the region but from all

research and teaching activities, Guru Nanak Dev University is also engaged in
augmenting the academic capabilities of the teachers working in Universities and
Colleges at its Academic Staff College known for its rigorous and disciplinarian
working. Functioning strictly in accordance with UGC guidelines and maintaining
a strict regime of selection of the participants and the Academic Staff College
has organized not only General Orientation Courses and Refresher Courses in

for example, Human Rights and Environmental Sciences and Special Programmes for administrators like
Principals, Heads of the
