Tracking access measures

At JGU, we implement sophisticated, transparent, and dynamic mechanisms to track gender access and equity metrics across its diverse campus community. This commitment of ours reflects our institutional dedication to fostering an equitable academic and workplace environment, where people from all gender identities have a fair opportunity to flourish.  

At JGU, we actively monitor critical indicators, including student gender ratios in enrollment across undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral programs, retention rates throughout their academic tenure, graduation rates as well as their hiring status post-graduation. Moreover, we also monitor recruitment among faculty and staff members and promotion statistics as well as the gender ratio in participation (especially women and other genders) across governance and leadership bodies.   

At JGU, our Admissions Office uses a state-of-the-art Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system, Meritto (formerly NoPaperForms), to track the application, acceptance, and entry rates of women candidates across all academic programs. By leveraging this technology, we ensure that gender representation remains a central focus throughout recruitment and admissions. 

We also embed feedback mechanisms across our campus ecosystem, making sure that the lived experiences of students, faculty, and staff directly inform the continuous refinement of our access measures. Through surveys, focus groups, and committee consultations, we actively assess not just the numbers but also the qualitative dimensions of gender equity—such as campus climate, inclusiveness, and support systems. 

Our commitment to gender equity is guided by institutional bodies like the Gender Equity Committee, which ensures compliance with our equity goals and advocates for proactive policy adjustments. To maintain accountability and transparency, we publicly disclose performance indicators that reflect our progress and resolve in advancing gender equity. 

Looking ahead, we have set ambitious goals: achieving near gender parity in faculty with a 1:1 gender ratio, increasing women’s representation in leadership roles to at least 45 percent within the next five years, and improving parity in non-teaching staff through gender-inclusive hiring and promotions. 

We also recognize that structural support is essential to retaining and advancing women in academia and administration. To this end, we provide employee welfare programs such as campus childcare facilities, flexible working hours, and family leave policies. 

Through this multifaceted and transparent approach, we are not only striving for gender equality on paper but actively cultivating a campus culture where equity is practiced, monitored, and embedded into every aspect of university life. Our commitment makes JGU a leading institution in India that champions gender-inclusive excellence and innovation.
