The university, founded on the principle of creating knowledge, has expanded its reach, attracting many students from rural backgrounds and diverse communities, including scheduled castes and tribes.
Significant research output from the university includes studies on marginalized groups such as neglected primitive tribes, women, Dalits, farmers, and folk traditions. Notably, research has shed light on communities like the Mukri tribe in Uttara Kannada, documented by CP Shivachandra, who hails from the tribe itself.
