With the words of M. S. Swaminathan: "If agriculture goes wrong, nothing else will have a chance to go right." Since its inception, the University has placed a strong emphasis on delivering high-quality education while also encouraging each of its students to develop into successful professionals and morally upright citizens. The students are deliberately instructed in both theoretical and practical areas to accomplish the programme(s) of interest. The University has adopted the recommendations of the Fifth Deans' Committee of ICAR's with the 2020–2021 academic year.
