For the newly enrolled students, it wasn’t just the start of another semester—it was the beginning of a meaningful journey toward their dreams and careers.
At Graphic Era Deemed University, the induction programme began with the ceremonial lighting of the lamp by Vice Chancellor Dr Narpinder Singh, Pro Vice Chancellor Dr Santosh S Sarraf, and Registrar Dr Naresh Kumar Sharma. Dr Singh extended a heartfelt welcome to the new students and gave them a glimpse into the dynamic life and world-class facilities of the university.

Sharing the larger vision of Chairman Dr Kamal Ghanshala of Graphic Era Group of Institutions, Dr Singh spoke about how the university is committed to turning student aspirations into achievements—through a strong learning environment, industry-linked curriculum, and high-paying placement opportunities.
But it wasn’t all about academics. The campus was buzzing with joy during the cultural performances that added colour, rhythm, and energy to the event. A fun-filled ice-breaking session followed, helping students bond, and break the initial hesitation through engaging and interactive activities. The induction programme also promises sessions with industry experts and inspirational personalities in the coming days—giving students a chance to learn from real stories and gain guidance for their personal and professional growth.
