Message from the Hon'ble In-charge Vice Chancellor
Dear Students, Faculty & Staff Members, Alumni, Industry Partners and all Stakeholders,
Namaskar!
It is my privilege to serve Gujarat Technological University as the In-charge Vice Chancellor and to continue the University's journey towards academic excellence, research leadership, innovation, and societal impact.
GTU has consistently evolved as one of India's leading technological universities by nurturing talent, fostering innovation, and strengthening collaborations across academia, industry, government, and society. As we move forward, our collective efforts must focus on creating an ecosystem where education extends beyond classrooms into laboratories, industries, startups, communities, and global partnerships.
The future of higher education lies in interdisciplinary learning, translational research, digital transformation, artificial intelligence, entrepreneurship, and sustainable development. Our endeavour will be to further strengthen these pillars while promoting outcome-based education, skill development, research excellence, and innovation that addresses real-world challenges. We shall continue to encourage faculty members, researchers, and students to pursue high-quality research, intellectual property creation, startup development, and international collaborations that contribute meaningfully to national priorities and global scientific advancement.
At GTU, we believe that every student should graduate not only with academic knowledge but also with professional competence, ethical values, leadership qualities, and an innovative mind-set. Through stronger industry engagement, experiential learning, emerging technology integration, and a vibrant research culture, we aspire to prepare graduates who are globally competent and socially responsible.
The University will continue to work towards creating a transparent, technology-enabled, student-centric, and research-driven academic ecosystem. Together with our affiliated institutes, constituent schools, faculty members, alumni, industry partners, and stakeholders, we shall strive to build an institution that contributes significantly to the vision of Viksit Bharat through education, innovation, entrepreneurship, and knowledge creation.
I invite every member of the GTU family to actively participate in this shared journey of excellence. With dedication, collaboration, and a spirit of continuous improvement, I am confident that we will together achieve new milestones and further strengthen GTU's position as a nationally and globally valued technological university.
I wish all our students, faculty members, staff members, and stakeholders continued success in their academic and professional pursuits.
Best Wishes,
Prof. (Dr.) Vaibhav Bhatt
Vice Chancellor (I/C)
