Realizing the importance of science and technology which boosts the country’s economic and technological growth, the government of India, in an effort to bridge the gap between the people living in rural areas and the higher education, has decided to start many Universities – aided and self-financed. In recent years, all the universities have been proactive in recruiting youthful strengths and optimizing the echelon of their faculty. Noorul Islam Centre for Higher Education has obtained Deemed University status from MHRD (Ministry of Human Resource Development) on the advice of UGC on 8th Dec 2008. The single and solitary goal of NICHE is to cultivate more and more all-round talents for modern India. Emulating the other successful Institutions of tertiary and quaternary education across the country, the university has been carrying out of series of daring experiments to integrate the various disciplines of learning and to utilize the abundant resources of comprehensive university. After strenuous work of exploring and practicing, NIU has now established its own curriculum and management system on par with leading universities in India and abroad. NIU actively incubates high-tech course and encourages the learners and students to convert knowledge in to power. Moreover, NICHE is entrusted with providing education at under graduate and post graduate level and undertaking scientific research as well as technological transfer. As a typical institution for basic engineering courses, our programme encompasses a wide spectrum of research areas and relates to all leading edge studies currently conducted by its faculty and departments. In addition to appreciable achievements obtained by pure engineering research, such specific traditional disciplines as Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and English have seen multi –disciplinary study findings of high applicability. This has triggered our research and educational capabilities at par with International Universities and Research Institutions. Thus NICHE also plays a pivotal role in the growth of economy, industry and education to make India a knowledge super power.

The world is fast changing in the field of knowledge. Educational opportunities and effective skilling are the need of the hour. Quality education that addresses the needs of the industry and that enhances employability demands re-engineering the whole system of higher education.

 Our University is thus committed to and becoming innovative and keeps rapid advancements in science and technology; including the emergence of Big Data, Machine Learning, and Artificial Intelligence. A good educational environment is one where every student is made to feel welcome and cared for, where a stimulating and safe learning environment exists, where a range of learning opportunities are offered, and where all students have access to resources that are appropriate for learning as well as adequate physical infrastructure.

To become a socially responsible and culturally sensitive country that upholds liberty, equality, fraternity, and justice for everyone as envisioned by its Constitution, India must invest heavily in higher education. The nation's ability to maintain living standards and build its economy depends on the nature of higher education. As India transitions to a knowledge economy and society, more Indian youth are likely to pursue higher education.

High-quality higher education should foster individual success and enlightenment as well as constructive civic engagement and beneficial social contribution. The abilities needed for more meaningful occupations and lifestyles should be provided to our young generation.

A comprehensive and multidisciplinary education would allow a person to fully develop his/her intellectual, aesthetic, social, physical, emotional and moral potentials. We plan accordingly and which will assist in developing well-rounded persons with crucial 21st century skills in the humanities, social sciences, professional, technical, and vocational domains, as well as in the arts and sciences. Our University engages in a comprehensive educational policy which will eventually be used in all undergraduate and Post graduate programmes, including those in professional, technical, and vocational sectors. By giving  access to high-quality education, our nation's abundant resources and talents can be developed and put to use for the best interests of each individual, society, the country, and the world.
