Vice-chancellor Suranjan Das had written to Global Jadavpur University Alumni Foundation in late October, 2022: “The government funding — state and central — is becoming extremely inadequate. I appeal to you to mobilize financial support for the university to enable it to maintain and improve the infrastructure and strengthen our ability to compete at national and international levels."
Prof. Bijoy Bhattacharyya, Head Production Engineering requested computers for the Upgradation of the Computational Application Laboratory. At the time of this request most of the computers had not been functional for the past couple of years. Global Jadavpur University Alumni Foundation donated 15 computers for the Production Engineering Department. The former Pro Vice Chancellor Chiranjib Bhattacharjee and the former Finance Officer Gour Pattanayak have kindly expedited the procurement process. The project was completed in one month from the date of fund transfer to installing computers at the Production Engineering Department. The department received additional funding from the Central government agency because of these 15 computers donated by GJUAF for the Computational Application Laboratory of the Production Engineering Department.
Completed
15 new computers at the Computational Application Laboratory helped Professors teaching undergraduate students at the Laboratory. The department has received more funding from the Central Government Agency because of these computers. Dr, Bijan Sarkar, currently Head of the Department of the Production Engineering wrote to GJUAF, "It is needless to say that JU, in general, and Production Engineering Department, in particular, has been immensely benefited by GJUAF regarding the contribution made for the upgradation as well as development of our Computer Applications Laboratory.”
