Keeping these objectives in view, Mizoram University has embarked on various programmes for academic and administrative development.
The North Eastern Hill University, with its headquarters at Shillong was already running its Mizoram campus since 1978. It was in 2001 that the Mizoram University was set up by incorporating all the facilities of the existing Mizoram campus of NEHU. The jurisdiction of the university therefore extends to the whole of Mizoram. Initially, the university had seven academic departments inherited from NEHU, but it now has a total of 18 academic departments. It hopes to bring the number to a total of 27 departments within the current Xth Plan. The university under NEHU functioned from various rented buildings in Aizawl for over two decades.
