The Director recommends the constitution of an Advisory Committee of each post graduate student admitted in the university based on the proposal of the respective Head of the Department. The Director scrutinizes the plan of work of each postgraduate student in his programme of study including thesis-research undertaken by the student for the degree programme. The Director of Instruction also recommends the appointment of external examiner, for evaluating the thesis of every postgraduate student. The Registrar issues the notification regarding the declaration of results and the award of the Degree.

The Advisory Committee is constituted for each student, drawn from different faculties depending on the research topic. Inter campus movement is also allowed to the students for the conduct of their research for utilizing the expertise and infrastructure facilities available. Inter disciplinary approach in the post graduate programme is adopted and the students register courses of other disciplines also. Six new non-credit courses have also been introduced from 2009-10, as proposed by ICAR.


Theses Evaluation

Every student admitted to the PG programme in the university, is required to submit a thesis towards partial fulfillment of the PG programme. The thesis of the student should be of such a nature as to indicate the student's potentiality for conducting research. The thesis shall be on a topic falling within the field of major subject and shall be the result of the students' own work. A certificate to this effect duly endorsed by the Professor and Head and the Major Advisor shall accompany the thesis at the time of submission for evaluation by the external examiner.


Inter Institutional Collaboration of the PG Programme

The JNKVV is imparting education at the Under Graduate and Post Graduate levels in the Faculties of Agriculture, including Forestry, and Agricultural Engineering. The university has established close linkages with other national and international research institutes in conducting collaborative research programmes at Post Graduate level. In these programmes, Post Graduate students complete their course work at JNKVV and carry out theses research work at other institutes. Institutes at which students have conducted their theses research include International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (ICGEB), New Delhi; International Crop Research Institute for Semi Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), Patancheru, Hyderabad (Andhra Pradesh), National Research Center for Weed Science (NRCWS), Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC), Central Institute for Cotton Research (CICR) and Goat and Sheep Research Institute, etc. The university has signed MoUs with various research organizations and private institutes e.g. Jain Irrigations Pvt. Ltd., etc. to conduct collaborative research in various fields of agriculture and agricultural engineering.


Process of Development and Revision of Course Curriculum

Heads of the departments develop and propose for revision of course curricula after thorough discussion with the teachers of the departments. They prepare detailed course out line for all the courses to be revised along with names of prescribed text and reference books. The revised course curriculum is first discussed in the faculty meetings and after approval; the proposal is submitted for consideration and approval before the Academic Council.

Amenities are being created in the central library and constituent libraries to provide better facilities for reading to the students, faculty and readers. Civil work is a necessity and has to be done on priority basis to increase the life of the building, waterproofing is essential to prevent leakage and seepage from side walls, which in turns creates dampness and spoils the reading material. Repairing and replacement of doors and windows is essential to ensure safety and security of library holdings. Facility of girl’s toilet is being developed inside the periodical section. Renovation of electrical’s will provide better lighting and air circulation to create congenial atmosphere for using the library facilities. It will also ensure the long life and safety of equipments like photocopier, UPS etc. which run on electricity.

The strength of UG, PG and PhD students is increasing every year. Also the numbers of colleges are also increasing and hence furniture and allied items are being procured for proper storage of reading material like Textbooks/ Reference Books/General Books/ Advances/ Journals/ Dictionaries/ Encyclopedias/Book Series/Annual Reviews/ Monographs/ Serials/ Reading Material and others items. Various newspapers are subscribed for current awareness and newspaper stands are being procured. Notices regarding current opening, conferences/seminars, training etc are displayed on the notice board located in library.
