The North Maharashtra University is one of the upcoming universities in India, the university was established on 15th August, 1990 under the Maharashtra University Act No. XXIX of 1989 as a teaching and affiliating University. It actually started its academic and administrative activities under the leadership of Prof. Dr. N. K. Thakare, the founder Vice Chancellor of the university, from academic year 1991-92. The jurisdiction of North Maharashtra University is spread over three districts of North Maharashtra i.e. Jalgaon, Dhule and Nandurbar.
The university was shifted to its own campus in 1995.The university is situated on the banks of river "Girna" and the campus of the university is spread over a hilly terrain of 650 acres of land. The university is approximately 10Kms away from the Jalgaon city. The pollution free hilly terrain provides natural ambience which creates a perfect environment for study. All Departments are equipped with all modern facilities, required by students/visitors.
The university is imparting education to students, through various courses at under graduate, post graduate, doctoral and post doctoral level, under 09 faculties, which includes Science, Engg. & Technology, Education, Medicine & Pharmacy, Ayurvedic Medicine, Arts & fine arts, Commerce and Management, Mental, Moral & Social Sciences, Law faculty.
Right now, there are five schools and six academic departments on the campus. Soon we will be strarting new academic departments. There are 148 colleges and 34 institutes and 8 recognized R & D centres affiliated to the university and this number is growing every year. The syllabi of different courses are designed to give profound and latest knowledge about the subjects to the students. The element of computer education is also being added to B.A., B.Sc. & B.Com. courses. The syllabi of the courses are revised from time to time as per the requirement.
The University has developed a model Examination System and is one of the few Universities in the State for conducting examinations regularly and declaring the results well in time as per the Maharashtra Universities Act, 1994. The action plan of the University in this regard is serving as a prototype to other Universities in the State.
To improve the efficiency of work most of the functioning of Administrative Departments/sections is computerized. The modern management techniques are used for easy and user friendly administration.
Prof. Dr. S. F. Patil took over as the second Vice Chancellor of this University on 14th Aug. 1996. During his tenure two new academic departments viz. Department of Comparative Languages & Literature and Department of Information Technology were started on the campus.
Prof. Dr. R. S. Mali took over as the third Vice Chancellor of the University on 14th August, 2001. Under his able and visionary leadership University is progressing at a faster pace towards excellence. Besides educational activities Prof. Dr. R. S. Mali is keen on social and environmental problems of the region. He encouraged students and teachers to undertake Water Harvesting programs on the campus, and as a outcome of this, small bands were constructed by the students.
Inspite of the fact that we have small number of faculty members in our Academic Schools/Departments, our faculty on the campus has till date successfully completed many Research Projects funded by various funding agencies. We have developed and transferred four technologies through University-Industry linkage and made some more ready for transfer.
In a very short period of time the university has gained name and fame on National and International levels. This university has also acquired the prestigious 2(f) & 12(b) recognition from the UGC. The university has been accredited with four star status duly honoured by the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC), Banglore. When NAAC committe assessed the functioning of the teaching and non teaching departments of the University and awarded the 4 star status in 2001.
Keeping in mind the need for self-reliance in future, university undertook the Teak plantation programme. 95,000 plantlets were planted which are growing up fast. This project was awarded with "VANASHREE" award in the year 2002. Honourable Vice-Chancellor received this award from the then Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Shri Vilasrao Deshmukh.
