Gulbarga University has the jurisdiction over four districts viz.
Bidar, Kalaburagi, Raichur and Yadagiri. Looked upon as an oasis
of knowledge, wisdom and learning, research and extension in an
otherwise backward or barren region of Hyderabad Karnataka, it
has emerged as a harbinger of positive social transformation, an
instrument of progress, and a vehicle of inclusive and sustainable
growth. Guided by its vision of excellence in higher education,
empowerment through knowledge, inclusive growth for socio-
economic transformation and sustainable development, and
wedded to the mission of equity, justice, harmony and progress,
the University has far exceeded the benchmark it had set for itself
to achieve at its inception and the expectations of those who were
instrumental in its establishment.
The University has a sprawling green campus of 860 acres, blessed
and bestowed with vegetation and water only a few campuses can
dream of. The University in its course of meaningful existence
and steady growth during the last thirty two years has carved
a niche for itself in the world of learning on the one hand and
world of science and literature on the other. The research that
is being carried out in all the disciplines is in the frontier and
applied areas of their respective domains, representing what is
known as the cutting edge of horizon of knowledge. At the same
time, the extension engaged in by us has enabled us to take the
campus to the community and put knowledge, scholarship and
wisdom available with us to meet the immediate needs of the
community around and tackle the problems of society at large
and thereby make its positive presence felt by the people who
come in our contact. Establishment of the PG Department of
Environment studies, Bio Diesel Park, laid on hundred acres with
Bio Diesel production plant, a Vermi Compost unit which is already
operational, proposed establishment of International Institute
for Food, Energy and Water Security, that could be termed as
monumental in scale and impact for which an IMOU has been
signed with the Colorado State University, USA last December 2011.
MOU with universities of European Commission under Erasmus
Mundus Svagata and FUSION Project, IMOU at World Biodiversity
Congress, Thailand are some of the landmarks that the University
is proud of. In terms of infrastructure and facility, the University
is way ahead of its contemporaries and on par with the oldest
of the Universities in the State. Academic, residential, sports and
recreation structures and central facilities like Library, Hostels,
USIC, Health Centre, Computer Centre, Language Lab, Multimedia
Production Centre are housed and equipped good enough to be
called the state of the art. The human resources and research
output of our departments is enviable by any standard, owing to
which it is being looked upon as the most fertile breeding ground
for pure knowledge and applied research. Owing to these traits,
the University is looked upon as a sought after destination for
an academically enriching and intellectually rewarding experience,
the twin benefits that true education and for that matter through
education an ideal University stands and strives for.
“«zÉåAiÉÄà CªÀÄÈvÀ” conveys the spirit of the University. The University
Prospectus provides information regarding the teaching, research
and developmental activities in the University for the benefit of
student community.
I wish a bright future for the student community.
Best wishes to all.

History of the Region
This region has rich historical heritage. Buddhist settlement
sites, Edicts of Ashoka in the form of slab inscription at
Sannati in Kalaburagi District are some of the heritage sites.
Famous kingdoms like the Rashtrakutas of Malkhed, Chalukyas
of Basavakalyana, Bahamani Emperors of Kalaburagi and
Sultanate of Bidar have ruled this region.
This region has a very rich cultural and literary heritage. The
very first known work in Kannada Literature, ‘Kaviraja Marga’
was written by Srivijay during the regime of the famous
Rasthrakuta emperor Nrupatunga during 850 AD. It was again
around this period, Mahaveeracharya wrote his Mathematical
works and Vijnaneshwara wrote his Mitakshara commentary
and an epigraph about him is preserved in Martur village, 22
km from Kalaburagi.
The region has witnessed a profound revolutionary movement
during the 12
th
Century AD led by Basaveshwara. It was a
movement of spiritual enlightenment, social equality, dignity of
labour and respect for women. Purandara Dasa, a renowned
poet, philosopher and founder of the Carnatik music who
lived during the Vijayanagara Empire, belongs to this region.
Subsequently, Raichur District became the cradle of several
poets and philosophers in the ‘Dasa tradition’. The Madarasa
established by Mohammad Gavan in Bidar acquired the status
of a University during 14
th
Century. Later Kalaburagi became a
bastion of the philosophical school of Suffism and produced a very
eminent saint and scholar, Hazrat Khwaja Banda Nawaz in the
15
th
Century. Kalaburagi is blessed with another famous saint,
Shri Sharanabasaveshwara in the 19
th
Century. Thus the
region has the potential to recapture this intellectual and
spiritual leadership and Gulbarga University is endeavouring
its best to provide necessary stimulus and institutional support
in this direction.
Ancient educational institutions in the form of
Agraharas,
Brahmapuris, Ghatikasthanas
and Mathas flourished in this
region which followed traditional methods of teaching.
Mathas
were residential schools where the teacher and the taught
lived together.
Agraharas and Brahmapuris were settlement
of scholars and separate arrangements existed for holistic
teaching.
Ghatikasthana was meant for conferring degrees
or certifying scholarships. ‘Maha Agrahara Nagai”, the ancient
University of Nagai at Nagai situated at Chittapur taluka of
Kalaburagi District was established during the Rasthrakuta and
Chalukya kings (993 AD). It is said that about 250 students,
six teachers and a librarian (Saraswati Bhandari) were
engaged in imparting education there. During 1058 AD, this
“Nagai Agrahara” was converted into ‘Ghatika Sthana’

Materials Science
The Department of Materials Science was established in the
year 2004. It has a well equipped state of the art laboratory for
materials synthesis and characterization comprising basic and
advanced equipments, modern experimental kits, instruments
and systems for P.G. students and research scholars.
The students get trained in handling these sophisticated
equipments and instruments. Department has been recognized
for Teaching and Research in Materials Chemistry under the
UGC – Innovative programme. Department has received major
research projects from UGC, DST and DAE – BRNS.
Department has signed MOU with Premier Explosives Limited,
Hyderabad, for Teaching and Research on High Energy
Materials. Placement of students at Premier Explosives (PEL),
is an added feature. The PEL’s R and D centre is recognized
by Gulbarga University, to carry our research on High Energy
Materials leading to Ph.D. degree, awarded by Gulbarga
University. Also, the Department is making all out efforts
for placements of students at different materials (cement
materials, iron oxide, steel etc.,) and polymer based Industries
in the region and students have been absorbed at these
industries. The Department is instrumental in collaborating
with industrial organizations for working on various aspects
of materials of mutual interest. The Department has close
rapport with National and International Institutes, Universities
and R&D Laboratories, on thrust areas of Material Science.
Local and Regional Science, Pharmacy and Engineering
Colleges have Academic and Research Interactions with the
Department. Also the Department is very keen and looking
forward to invoice many more materials - based industries in
their Academic and Research Programmes and job placements
to the students. A fellowship of Rs. 10,000/- per annum and a
gold medal to rank holder opting a theory paper-High Energy
Materials, is one of the key features of this Department.
