Student Discipline Rules

Students enrolled in the University must recognize their responsibilities towards the faculty, office staff, and fellow students. Failure to maintain appropriate standards of conduct will attract disciplinary action.

The University believes that duty, decorum, and discipline are the hallmarks of a good student. The following acts would be deemed to be acts of indiscipline:

• Any overt or covert act leading to ragging and eve-teasing.
• Disruption of classroom activities or disturbing the studies of other students.
• Marring the operations of the University or its educational activities.
• Harming the health or safety of staff or students.
• Damage to property or possession of any intoxicants or illicit drugs or weapons on the University campus.
• Misconduct during examinations.
• Production of false information or documents for admission purposes.
• Failure to return loaned materials or settle debts with the University.

Prohibition of Ragging

Ragging in any form is strictly prohibited. If any incident of ragging comes to notice, the authority would expel the student from the University.
