Re: Is University of Madras recognized by UGC
The University of Madras is a public state university in Chennai, Tamil Nadu which was established in 1857. It was incorporated by an act of the Legislative Council of India. The National Assessment and Accreditation Council has conferred 'five star' accreditation to the university and it has been given the status of 'University with Potential for Excellence' by the UGC or University Grants Commission. In 2011, the University Grants Commission selected as a university with potential for excellence, under which the university gets Rs. 250 million (Rs. 25 crore). It was selected under phase 1 of the scheme in 2001–02 along with a few other universities in India. UGC has identified the school of geology and the school of zoology of the university as centers of excellence and has allotted Rs. 32.5 million (Rs. 3.25 crore) each for their development.
