About CIF@CURAJ
The Central University of Rajasthan was established in 2009 by an Act of Parliament on a 518-acre campus at Kishangarh, Ajmer, on the Jaipur–Ajmer highway. Today it is a NAAC A++ accredited, UGC Category-I university with 12 schools and 36 academic departments, spanning life sciences, engineering, management, social sciences and more.
