About Keladi Shivappa Nayaka University of Agricultural and Horticultural Sciences
Keladi Shivappa Nayaka University of Agricultural and Horticultural Sciences is an university in Shivamogga, Karnataka, established in 2012. It is affiliated to Keladi Shivappa Nayaka University of Agricultural and Horticultural Sciences. Keladi Shivappa Nayaka University of Agricultural and Horticultural Sciences offers 4 programmes, 1 at undergraduate level and 1 at postgraduate level. They are B.Sc (Hon’s) Agriculture; B.Sc (Hon’s) Horticulture; B.Sc (Hon’s) Forestry, Diploma courses in Agriculture, M.Sc. in Agriculture; M.Sc. in Horticulture; M.Sc. in Forestry and Ph.D. in Floriculture and Landscaping; Ph.D. in Fruit Science; Ph.D. in Plantation, Spices, Medicinal and Aromatic Crops; Ph.D in Vegetable Science. Current official pages use both UAHS and the renamed legal name Keladi Shivappa Nayaka University of Agricultural and Horticultural Sciences (KSNUAHS). The university was established under Karnataka Act/ordinance framework in 2012, began independent functioning in 2013, and has jurisdiction over seven Karnataka districts. Its constituent colleges were reported as ICAR-accredited through March 2026. The official university page reports four constituent colleges, 14 research stations, two granted patents (numbers 468204 and 488359), three patent filings, and 1,544 funded projects worth approximately Rs. The current official university page states establishment under Karnataka Act No. 38 of 2012 on 21-09-2012, independent functioning from 01-04-2013, and renaming from University of Agricultural and Horticultural Sciences (UAHS) to the present name on 26-07-2021. The UGC February 2026 HEIs-violating-regulations page does not list this university in the fake-universities or defaulter State (Private) Universities lists; the UGC fake-university page likewise does not list it. The 17-01-2024 consolidated UGC State (Public) University PDF did not index the current name; the university's Karnataka Act/official page is the identity and recognition evidence. The official About page has an internal count/listing inconsistency (it says six colleges while naming five degree colleges plus two diploma colleges), so no constituent-college count is asserted.
