OSMANIA UNIVERSITY – A PROFILE
Osmania University is one of the premier institutions of higher learning in India
epitomizing the national agenda for higher education. “A pioneering and
performing university accredited by NAAC with the highest rating of five
stars in the service of the Nation, making higher education accessible,

This aptly sums up the spirit and essence of Osmania University – the symbol of life
long learning.
ESTABLISHMENT
Established in 1918, Osmania University is the 7th oldest university in the country, 3rd
oldest in south India and the oldest in the state of Andhra Pradesh. Named after its
founder Nawab Mir Osman Ali Khan, the 7th Nizam of the then princely state of
Hyderabad, Osmania University is the first university in the country to impart
instruction through the medium of an Indian language i.e., Urdu with English as a
compulsory subject. Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore lauded this revolutionary
experiment of a regional language as the medium of higher education.
The birth of Osmania University with the lofty ideals of synthesizing the ancient and
modern, the orient and occidental and development of national ethos in the
academic pursuits of a high order symbolized a renaissance in the Indian higher
education system.
LOCATION

Training Centre for Navigational Electronics (NERTU), the Audio Visual Research
Centre (AVRC), the University Computer Centre (UCC), the Academic Staff College
(ASC), the English Language Teaching Centre (ELTC) for promotion of inter-
institutional collaboration and to offer consultancy and customized service. Growth is
also reflected in the decentralization of higher education through opening of off

distance education to meet the increasing demands for higher education. The
academic diversity, physical spread and infra-structural strength add to the
University’s comprehensiveness and complexity at the turn of the new century.

Centre for Solid Waste Technology and Management The management of solid waste for the twin city of Hyderabad and Secunderabad
(50 lakh population) generating over 2500 tonnes of municipal solid waste every day is a
gigantic task. While local government/ municipal bodies can handle essentially the
collection and disposal of MSW, there are several other complementary aspects of solid
waste management, where other agencies can play a pivotal role. Important aspects
such as creating awareness amongst the public for better solid waste management,
motivating public at large to clean up local environment, training personnel as waste
management professionals, design and construction of transfer stations and landfills,
transfer of new technologies from developed countries, and research & developmental
activities are very vital and form an integral part of solid waste management
programmes. Since these aspects cannot be handled by the local government/ municipal
bodies, institutional support is absolutely necessary to implement the solid waste
management programmes effectively. It is with this perspective that Osmania University
felt the need to launch a “Centre for Solid Waste Technology and Management”
(CSWTM) and serve the community at large, with its sole mission of creating a clean
environment to improve public health. Accordingly, the Centre (CSWTM) was established
in July 2000 with the objective of creating a clean environment by undertaking the
various activities stated above.

Waste Technology and Management, and thus achieve the principal goal of clean
environment and improved public health.
