The University of Jammu informally known as Jammu University (JU), accredited as A+ grade by National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC),[3] was established in 1969 by an act of the state legislature which effectively split the Jammu and Kashmir University into the separate University of Jammu and University of Kashmir.
The university is currently located at the foothills of Trikuta on the banks of the Tawi River.[4] The university has set up seven off-site campuses at Bhaderwah, Kishtwar, Poonch, Reasi, Ramnagar, Kathua and Udhampur. The university is the first university in India to receive the ISO-9001 certification.[5] The university offers undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral programs.[6] It also affiliates and recognizes colleges.
