History
The Sikkim Manipal University of Health, Medical and Technological Sciences (now known as Sikkim Manipal University) came into existence on November 15, 1992, after the signing of an agreement between the Government of Sikkim and the Manipal Pai Foundation. The aim was to impart exemplary educational opportunities and health care services in the State of Sikkim and elsewhere.
The University was established in 1995 with the passing of the Sikkim Manipal University of Health, Medical and Technological Sciences Act (Act No. 10 of 1995).
The university has two campuses; the Medical campus, and the Technology campus. It is recognized by the University Grants Commission under Section 2(f) of the UGC Act, 1956 vide letter No F. 9-7/96(CPP-I) dated 9 Dec 1998, and approved by the Government of India. All the courses run by the university have been approved by regulatory bodies like Medical Council of India (MCI), Nursing Council of India, Indian Association of Physiotherapy, All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), and the Distance Education Council.
The Sikkim Manipal University of Health, Medical, and Technological Sciences (Amendment) Act No. 13 of 2009 was passed by the Sikkim Legislative Assembly on 12th Dec 2009 and received the assent of the governor of Sikkim on 22 January 2010. Vide Notification No. 13/LD/P/2010, dated: 08/04/2010 of Sikkim Government, Sikkim Manipal University of Health Medical and Technological Sciences was changed to Sikkim Manipal University.
According to the said Act, the university would be able to disseminate advanced knowledge by providing instructional and research facilities for promoting interdisciplinary studies in the university.
In 2012, the University introduced the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences. The department covers subjects like Sociology, Political Science, History, English, and Commerce.
Accreditation
SMU is a UGC-recognized, private university.
In 2012, Sikkim Manipal University had been ordered by the UGC to shut down all study centers outside Sikkim. In its judgement on a petition filed by SMU against the UGC order, the Sikkim high court held that SMU is bound by the order from the UGC.
SMU is a member of the Association of Indian Universities (AIU) and its recognition with Distance Education Council (DEC)[2] was pending with UGC subsequent to Sikkim high court's order dated 26.06.2015.
The UGC has now allowed admissions for the year 2016-17. Sikkim Manipal University, Gangtok is recognised by UGC to continue offering programs through Open & Distance Learning (ODL) mode for the session 2016-2017 (F.No. UGC/DEB-II/SMU/Recog./2015 Vol. V), dated 21 March 2016.
In the final order to judgement in wp(c) 04 of 2013 on 26.06.2015 Hon. High Court of Sikkim upheld the territorial policy of UGC and at the same time validated the degrees of SMU distance education students who were enrolled in any program of SMU until the date of judgement. Subsequently, the court came up with a clarification three days later, on 29.06.15, explaining the exact position of student’s degrees.
The UGC then filed a SL petition in Supreme Court on 23.09.15 that at the same was dismissed by Supreme Court, protecting the degrees of students.
UGC has issued a notice on 01.10.2015 on its website ugc.ac.in, in which the three judgements related to SMU have been uploaded. UGC was expected to take a decision on SMU's distance education programs within six months starting from court's order dated 26.06.2015. Until then, SMU has shut down its study centers all over India and abroad, except in the state of Sikkim.
