We at HU have a well-developed team of professionals offering empathetic hands to lift students out of the pit of ambiguities, disappointments, confusion, and depression. Our full-time psychological counsellor adopts a holistic approach and includes all domains of student's life while providing group and one to one counselling. Difficulties in academics and learning are dealt with through faculty mentors. HU is among one of the few universities that understand the student's need for a friend, guide, role model and mentor.
Health & Medical Counselling
Infirmary
The University provides the students a well-equipped First-aid support in the Infirmary, It's also equipped with Ambulance evacuation for the students. There are two male and two female doctors to provide medical support to the students.
Ambulance
Medical supports which are beyond the infirmary are facilitated through a high-tech medical ambulance which is present with emergency management facilities.
Remedial Coaching
Understanding the importance of supporting the students to overcome their learning difficulties and gain confidence and interest in learning, remedial classes are planned and organized each year.
The remedial classes are therefore conducted for the students whose performance is not up to the mark i.e. for the students who secure less than 40% marks in Mid-Term Examination.
These classes help the slow learners to fill the gaps in the teaching learning process which may be due to their slow learning pace, lack of understanding, lack of motivation to practice the problems etc. and ultimately enhance their learnings and skills, resulting in improvement in their performance.
Sexual Harassment
The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act 2013 is a legislative act in India that seeks to protect women from sexual harassment at their workplace. The HU is committed to providing a safe working and academic environment to all girl students and its women employees. Keeping the dignity of women in mind and to safeguard them from any such incidence at the workplace, the university has created an Internal Complaint Cell for Prevention of Sexual Harassment.
