It is nearly half a century since the late Sir Padampat Singhania, the visionary founder of the JK Organization, dreamt of an empowered Indian populace, through whom India would take its place as an equal in the comity of nations. According to him, empowerment presupposes education and knowledge. That became the cornerstone of the organization’s philosophy for discharging its social responsibility and Yadupati Singhania Foundation was born. Over time, involvement in education became stronger and deeper. Today, two decades later, it is associated with twelve educational institutions imparting education to nearly 14,000 students at various levels of the learning curve. The Yadupati Singhania Foundation envisioned the establishment of world-class university in Rajasthan benchmarked to international educational institutions. The Foundation constituted a think tank of eminent people from industry, science and technology, and academia who prepared the blueprint of the University. The University is committed to academic excellence, entrepreneurial spirit, diversity, vibrancy, and creativity.
