Women’s applications in underrepresented subjects

At O.P. Jindal Global University (JGU), we are deeply committed to advancing gender equality and empowering women to thrive in traditionally male-dominated fields such as law, governance, and international affairs. 

We actively challenge gender stereotypes through outreach campaigns that showcase inspiring women role models and highlight diverse career pathways. Our admissions policies emphasize inclusivity and gender sensitivity, with preparatory workshops and bridging courses designed to support women applicants who may not have had prior exposure to these domains. 

We also invest in our faculty through development programmes that foster gender-responsive pedagogy, creating inclusive classroom environments where every student can succeed. To strengthen women’s presence in research, we provide grants that encourage women scholars to pursue ground-breaking studies, especially in underrepresented fields, and to integrate gender dimensions into their work. 

Collaboration is at the heart of our approach. By promoting cross-disciplinary engagement, we broaden women’s opportunities for academic leadership and innovative contributions. Through these efforts, we are strategically addressing cultural and structural barriers, working to rebalance gender disparities in critical fields. 

At JGU, our vision is to build a more equitable, inclusive, and innovative academic environment—one where women are empowered to lead, inspire, and shape the future.
