About Mizoram University

Basic information and contact details for Mizoram University

institution

Mizoram University was founded in 2001 under the Indian Government’s University Grants Commission. However its history can be traced back to 1973 when its predecessor, North-Eastern Hill University, was established.

The campus is situated among lush greenery and scenic hills and is surrounded by tropical forests. It contains a protected forested water catchment reserve and a small biodiversity park. The campus is also rich with diverse animal species including 23 species of snakes and about 50 species of birds.

The university is divided into nine schools, namely earth sciences and natural resources management, economics, management and information sciences, education and humanities, engineering and technology, life sciences, physical sciences, social sciences, fine arts, planning and architecture, and medical and paramedical sciences. Between them the schools have 33 departments offering a range of both undergraduate and graduate courses.

The university publishes an annual magazine, Lunglohtui, as well as a monthly newsletter called Silhouette. A number of research journals are also published throughout the academic year such as the Science and Technology Journal, Geographic Journal, and Journal of Literature and Cultural Studies.

The university is located in Aizawl, the capital of the state of Mizoram. The state is located in northeastern India and shares a border with Bangladesh and Myanmar. Mizoram can be translated as "land of the Mizos" because its name is derived from "Mizo", which refers to the native inhabitants and "Ram’" which means "land". Mizoram’s current population consists almost entirely of Mizo people, among which are the Kuki, Pawi and Lakher.
