South Asian University-Delhi is a proposed university set up by the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation-SAARC. At the Thirteenth South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation-SAARC Summit held in Dhaka, in November 2005, Indian Prime Minister proposed the establishment of a South Asian University-Delhi to provide world-class facilities and professional faculty to students and researchers from SAARC member countries. The "Inter-governmental Agreement for the Establishment of the South Asian University" was signed at the 14th SAARC Summit. And the SAARC member states also decided that the University would be established in India. Tejinder Khanna, Lieutenant Governor of Delhi, Foreign Secretary of India, Shivshankar Menon, and Prof. G.K. Chaddha, member of Economic Advisory Council and former vice chancellor of Jawaharlal Nehru University, were formally appointed the CEO of the project.
India provides the majority of funds, around 239.930 million dollars, for the foundation of South Asian University-Delhi, which is around 79 percent of the total cost of the full establishment of the University until 2014. The South Asian University-Delhi is main campus in New Delhi will be hosting nearly 5,000 students and an international faculty. South Asian University-Delhi will also have linked campuses in other South Asian countries. A total of 3,000 students — 95 per cent of them in postgraduate and PhD programmes — and 300 faculty members have been envisaged by 2014. Although India will bear the capital costs, no more than 50 per cent of students will be from India.
South Asian University-Delhi aims at admitting students in 2010, when the it will use a temporary campus at Akbar Bhawan, India. South Asian University-Delhi permanent campus will be at Maidan Garhi in South Delhi, India, next to Indira Gandhi National Open University-IGNOU.
The mandate of the South Asian University-Delhi, as set out in the Agreement of the SAARC Member States under which the University has been set up envisages that South Asian University-Delhi should: enhance learning in the South Asian community that promotes an understanding of each other’s perspectives and strengthen regional consciousness. Provide liberal and humane education to the brightest and the most dedicated students of South Asia so that a new class of quality leadership is nurtured.
The South Asian University-Delhi will focus overwhelmingly on research and post-graduate programmes, though a small Faculty of Under-graduate Studies will also come up. The University ultimately plans to create 12 post-graduate Faculties, 6 sciences and 6 non-sciences. A flagship Institute of South Asian Studies will also be established in South Asian University-Delhi. At full strength, South Asian University-Delhi will have 7000 students and 700 teachers.
The South Asian University-Delhi will ultimately operate several faculties and offer multiple choice of courses. For the first academic year starting in August 2010, the following two courses are being introduced: MA in Development Economics, Master of Computer Applications.
The South Asian University-Delhi will recruit and retain competent faculty by providing competitive and attractive emoluments, congenial work environment and adequate opportunities to scale academic advances on an enduring basis.
