Autonomous University

An autonomous university is an institution that has the authority to govern itself independently, including setting its academic standards, curricula, and policies without external control. This independence allows the university to design programs that best serve its students and community, ensuring academic freedom and institutional integrity. Autonomy typically involves self-management in decision-making, funding allocation, and strategic planning, while still adhering to national education regulations. It enables universities to innovate, adapt to societal needs, and maintain high standards of education and research, fostering an environment of intellectual growth and societal contribution.
