Gr Noida, 16th Dec: In a landmark moment reflecting Uttar Pradesh’s growing prominence on the global education map, Galgotias University received high praise from the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Yogi Adityanath, during a special interaction. Commending the University’s impressive performance in the QS World University Rankings and Times Higher Education (THE), the Chief Minister described Galgotias University as a leading example for higher education institutions across the state and a matter of pride for Uttar Pradesh.

During the interaction, the Chief Minister emphasised the pivotal role of educational excellence, innovation-driven learning, and global collaborations in positioning Uttar Pradesh as an emerging knowledge hub.

The University’s learning framework is further strengthened through academic inspiration drawn from InsPIRE at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore, reinforcing its commitment to internationally benchmarked education.

The Chief Minister also acknowledged the strategic advantage of Greater Noida’s rapidly evolving global infrastructure, including the upcoming Noida International Airport, which significantly enhances international connectivity, global faculty engagement, and student mobility. Galgotias University’s expanding network of global faculty, visiting professors, and international research collaborations was highlighted as a key contributor to its rising global academic stature.

Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Dhruv Galgotia, CEO of Galgotias University, said, “We are deeply honoured by the encouraging words of Hon’ble Chief Minister Shri Yogi Adityanath ji.
