DESCRIPTION :

The National Institute of Educational Planning and Administration (NIEPA)¸ (Deemed to be University) established by the Ministry of Human Resource Development¸ Government of India¸ is a premier organization dealing with capacity building and research in planning and management of education not only in India but also in South Asia.

In recognition of the pioneering work done by the organization in the field of educational planning and administration¸ the Government of India have empowered it to award its own degrees by way of conferring it the status of Deemed to be University in August¸ 2006. Like any Central University¸ NIEPA is fully maintained by the Government of India.

The National Institute has its origin dating back to 1962 when the UNESCO established the Asian Regional Centre for Educational Planners and Administrators which later became the Asian Institute of Educational Planning and Administration in 1965. After 4 years of its existence¸ it was taken over by the Government of India and renamed as the National Staff College for Educational Planners and Administrators. Subsequently¸ with the increased roles and functions of the National Staff College¸ particularly in capacity building¸ research and professional support services to governments¸ it was again renamed as the National Institute of Educational Planning and Administration (NIEPA) in 1979.
