ROOTS – The Foundation Program

“People without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture are like trees without roots.”- Marcus Garvey

I take this opportunity to congratulate and welcome all the students who have been admitted into various degree and diploma programs at Jharkhand Rai University (JRU), Ranchi.

The University endeavours to create the best possible learning environment for students through dynamic research, rigorous training and efficient mentorship. We are committed to the cause of making higher education accessible to all irrespective of caste, colour or creed. With this objective, the University provides cutting-edge holistic learning environment to develop promising youngsters into leaders of tomorrow with globally relevant, future-ready and actionable intelligence. The aim is to make each student proficient in synthesizing/analysing information and to be ethical, socially responsible, and just when making decisions.

Keeping in mind that students come from different and diverse background, JRU brings meticulously designed Foundation Program named “ROOTS–2022” starting September 1, 2022.

“ROOTS – 2022” is designed to help new students adjust and feel comfortable in the new environment, inculcate in them the ethos and culture of the institution, help them build bonds with other students and faculty members, and expose them to a sense of larger purpose and self-exploration.

During the program, students will build a network of resources that will help them to start their JRU journey on the right path. By the end of ROOTS, students will be on their way to start their educational journey with us.

Our University is committed to entrepreneurial development and skills enhancement for our students. We encourage, inspire and nurture young students by supporting them to work with new ideas and transform them into prototypes while they are in their informative years. We have also introduced skill-based Certification Courses in different programs.

“ROOTS – 2022 followed by Two days Orientation Program” will start with an Introduction Session, along with many games and fun loving activities, and later would cover the basic of sciences / Maths / IT / English/ Biology, which will help students coming from diverse background learn the fundamentals and come up to a common platform before they begin their respective credit based course.

Apart from academics, the sessions will include different club activities from JRU’s Cultural Club, Health Club, Sports Club and Science Club.

To make learning fun, the session will also include learning from different movies from Bollywood/Hollywood, Audio Visual, pass the word, spotting, Game Blast etc. to inculcate and imbibe soft skills like Ethics, Motivation, Leadership, etc.

Besides this, the courses on “Basic Etiquette and Personality Development” and “IT Awareness & Technology Trends” also constitutes an integral part of the foundation program, ensuring the students use best of their capabilities and resources once they enter the credit-based program.

Last but not the least, the session will include “Expert Talk” from eminent personalities in their fields and also include “Alumni’s Wit” where our alumni will be sharing experiences about their campus life.

To ensure that the program is taken up with utmost seriousness, all students will also go through an assessment session at the end of ROOTS.

“ROOTS – 2022 is aptly designed to give the students a gist of what they would experience in their forthcoming course tenure. The session ends with loads of fun filled learning games and events on the go.

A full schedule will be provided to the students and we encourage the presence of students for the entire ROOTS and Orientation Program in the online mode.
