DESCRIPTION :

Nalanda University was established in November 2010. The University came into being by a special Act of the Indian Parliament ? a testimony to the important status that Nalanda University occupies in the Indian intellectual landscape. Nalanda is a stand alone international university unlike any other established in the country. Located in the town of Rajgir¸ in the northern Indian state of Bihar¸ Nalanda University is mandated to be an international institution for the pursuit of intellectual¸ philosophical¸ historical and spiritual studies". 

The site for Nalanda University is located in the Nalanda District of Bihar (with headquarters at Bihar Sharif) and fronts the State Highway 71. The site is on the south-west outskirts of Rajgir town. Rajgir is also the administrative sub-division of Nalanda District. It is approximately 12 kms from the historical site of the ancient Nalanda University and about 110 kms by road from Patna¸ the capital of the state of Bihar.

The total area of the campus is 455 acres and oriented roughly east-west along the highway. Beyond the railway tracks¸ the ancient Rajgir Hills form the backdrop on the south. The terrain of the site is reasonably flat with a few seasonal water bodies."
