Education201053 sections

This legislation establishes and regulates the Centurion University of Technology and Management as a self-financed, unitary private university in the State of Orissa. Sponsored by the Jagannath Institute for Technology and Management Trust, the Act outlines the university's governance structure, academic powers, financial funds, admission procedures, and regulatory compliance requirements under national bodies like the UGC. It applies to university administrators, trustees, faculty, staff, and students across its constituent schools and study centers. This law matters because it promotes private investment in higher, technical, and vocational education in the state, expanding regional academic opportunities while ensuring standardized quality and inclusive admissions.
