Central University of Jammu

Central University of Jammu was established under the Central Universities Act, 2009, and began functioning in 2011, on a roughly 600-acre campus at Rahya-Suchani, Bagla, Samba district, around 30 km from Jammu city. It is a distinct institution from the older, separate University of Jammu, located in Jammu city itself.

Admissions

Undergraduate and postgraduate admission runs primarily through CUET. B.Tech admission uses JEE Main; MBA admission accepts CAT or MAT alongside CUET. PhD admission requires NET or GATE qualification.
