In our efforts to make this University a centre of excellence and also to explore new frontiers of knowledge, we have been strengthening considerably the infrastructure for developing the existing Departments/Centres and planning for new hi-tech areas for providing opportunities for learning and research for younger generations. We have also encouraged N.S.S. and other students' welfare activities. We organised a number of seminars and lecturers on various topics and through them kept the students and teachers informed about the latest developments in the academic and social fields. I place on record my deepest sense of gratitude to the Visitor for his valuable support, to the Government of Goa for its maintenance and developmental grants, to the University Grants Commission and the Central Ministries concerned for the financial support under specific schemes, to the members of the Executive Council, the Academic Council, the Court, the Planning Board and to the several Boards of Studies for their understanding support and full cooperation at every stage in implementation of the various academic, administrative and other activities undertaken by the University. I appreciate the efforts of our faculty to raise the level of standards in our University. Similarly, I appreciate the positive response in all sectors of learning we have had from our student community, for whose bright future, we all strive. I am also thankful to the administrative staff for their unstinted and constant endeavour to improve the functioning of the University. University Offices, Dr. P. R.
