Clan

Why the Clans?

The endeavor of our university is to provide students with opportunities to engage with teachers and the management; to develop a structured partnership, thereby endowing them with practical skills in communication, planning, and project and organizational management.

This enables them to take responsibility for projects, demonstrate their capabilities of managing and bringing big projects to successful completion. Healthy rivalry is also important to enhance and set benchmarks for performance levels.

Research shows that enablement and healthy rivalries prepare students for life, healthy competition, and a futuristic society. It stimulates the professional scenario of today’s world which will build the psyche of the youth to carry it forward through his/her lifetime.

With the Clans, we intend to implement all of this efficiently whilst involving a larger number of students.

The Role of the Clans

At the core, the Clan’s role is to create more fervent connections at MREI. The other roles the Clan structure will play are:

Facilitate an environment for students to engage across physical infrastructures. An environment that not just promotes academic excellence but also caters to personal development keeping the fun factor alive,
To promote friendship and respect amongst pupils
To empower students & educator groups wherein they can collaborate in aiding the development of real-life skills
To create a sense of responsibility, loyalty, and tolerance towards seniors, peers, and the parent institution
To be able to harness the talent; the ability to arrive at a consensus of views and the ideas coming from a larger number of students
And finally, to create healthy competition

Manav Rachna Life skill Programme

The defining characteristics of successful individuals are a high-quality life, a successful career, and a positive impact on society. Manav Rachna University provides motivation, opportunities, and mentorship through its unique Clan-based Life Skills Program, which uses an experiential and enjoyable approach to education. This program focuses on enhancing life skills, fostering purposeful living and promoting values, developing career skills, problem-solving skills, leadership, and communication, and promoting sustainability and sensitivity towards society.

The university's credit allocation and calculation of awards system is based on activity points earned by students in various segments, including extra-curricular, co-curricular, entrepreneurship/incubation/innovation, and CSR activities. To earn a degree, a minimum of 25 activity points per year must be earned. Students are awarded 2 credits for Under Graduate Programs and 1 credit for Post Graduate Programs on a pass/fail basis, and the number of points earned are reflected in the grade card.

The club/committee platform offers students a variety of opportunities to develop their communication, leadership, time-management, and resource management skills, as well as build their confidence.

This department serves as a liaison between students and the administration, working closely with students of all years to provide leadership, social, extracurricular, and academic counseling programs. The goal of Department of Students Welfare is to develop the overall personality of students through various student-focused initiatives, and to bring out the hidden talents of students by identifying those with an interest in areas such as music, dance, literature, fashion, arts, social responsibility, theatre, photography, and health.

Students Welfare also collaborates with organizations such as AICTE and UGC for programs like Unnat Bharat Abhiyan, Ek Bharat Shrestha Bharat, Swacch Bharat Abhiyan, FIT India Movement, and various anti-ragging seminars, Red cross, human rights and road safety initiatives.

As part of the co-curricular activities, Students Welfare shares responsibility for educational tours organized by teaching departments. The department also organizes a variety of workshops, courses, talent competitions, and cultural events such as the annual Cultural Fest "RESURRECTION," which includes music, dance, theatre, literature, fine arts, and fashion, aimed at promoting the rich culture and heritage of the country. National festivals such as Independence Day and Republic Day are celebrated with patriotic fervor, and other national and international festivals like Holi, Diwali, Navratri, Christmas, and International Women's Day are also celebrated with enthusiasm.
