Importance of Endowment Fund

The endowment funds support almost every aspect of the university’s academics and administration, thereby ensuring high standards of education, research, resources and operations at all times. As these funds are permanent and have greater longevity, they offer stronger financial stability for the university’s long term strategic plans and goals.
