Based on this, we at DPU through the team of competent and very skilled faculty try to bring out the best in the students in order to make them capable and knowledgeable professionals, who will serve the society. Hence, we believe that learning should not be limited only to physical and worldly aspects but along with it, moral, ethical and spiritual aspects should also be incorporated into it. In today’s fast-paced world, where everything is changing at a rapid pace, changes are taking place in various sectors and they should be brought in the education system too. We at Dr. D. Y.

Besides whatever is offered in the curriculum, we also offer value added courses along with it.
