The Gurukul Kangri University is a Deemed University located in the city of Haridwar in the Indian province of Uttarakhand.The Institution was founded in 1902 by Swami Shraddhananda (1856-1926), a member of the Arya Samaj, with the aim of reviving the ancient Hindu educational system of residential schools or gurukuls imparting esoteric knowledge under the direct guidance of a guru or adept as an alternative to the Western-oriented system of Education imposed on India by Lord Macaulay. The institution is located at the village of Baradabad on the outskirts of the ancient Hindu pilgrimage city of Haridwar, presently a part of Uttarakhand. The impetus for the foundation was found in the teachings and activities of Dayananda Saraswati, founder of the Arya Samaj. In 1922, a sister-institution, the Kanya Gurukul Mahavidyalaya, was founded at Dehradun to cater to the needs of girls. Presently, the Kanya Gurukul has a campus alongside the Gurukul Kangri University in Haridwar. In 1993, the Governmental University Grants Commission granted the Gurukul the status of a Deemed University. As a result, the institution now is legally styled as a Mahavidyalaya (university) rather than a Vidyalaya (school). The present Vice-Chancellor, the person who actively governs a university in India, is Prof. Swatantra Kumar. Among its alumni is the late Rama P. Coomaraswamy, third son of the Indologist Ananda Kentish Coomaraswamy.
