Institute of Education and Research

The Institute of Education and Research has been fulfilling the cherished dream of the University’s founder, who placed great emphasis on the importance of teacher education. Upholding this vision, the Institute offers both the Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) and Master of Arts in Education (M.A. Education) programs, designed to develop reflective, innovative, and research-oriented educators. The Institute focuses on building expertise in educational research, aiming to equip pupil-teachers with a creative and analytical understanding of teaching and learning processes. It is committed to providing a conducive academic environment that nurtures a deep reverence for education and lifelong learning. With a diverse academic curriculum and a wide array of co-curricular and extracurricular activities, the Institute strives to enhance the intellectual and professional capacities of its students. The B.Ed. program is conducted in accordance with the guidelines and framework established by the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE), ensuring both academic rigor and practical relevance.

The Institute of Education & Research is equipped with a state-of-the-art library, multiple resource centers, seminar halls, and contemporary classrooms. It follows a mentor-mentee model, where faculty members personally guide and support students to meet their unique learning needs. B.Ed. student-teachers receive comprehensive training through pre-practice teaching sessions, demonstration lessons, school internships, and practice teaching modules, all designed to sharpen their pedagogical skills and classroom readiness. The M.A. in Education program further deepens theoretical insight and research capabilities, preparing students for advanced roles in teaching, administration, and educational policy. It is our constant endeavor to establish a value-driven, quality-conscious institution that emphasizes excellence, ethics, and professional integrity. With a future-focused approach, the Institute aims to prepare skilled and enlightened educators capable of clearing competitive examinations for teaching roles at the primary, upper primary, secondary, senior secondary, and higher education levels.
