Prof. R K Singh Soon after independence of India in 1948 , then President Shri Radhakrishnan , made an important recommendation, for the appointment of Dean Student welfare and creation of an office for students welfare in all educational institutes to reduce the disparity prevailing that time among Indian society. In 1960, UGC through education commission again directed to all universities to establish an office of Dean Student Welfare for providing opportunity for holistic development to inoculate the understanding of their social responsibility of passing out students in the spirit to make them a sensible citizen who can work in national interest .

It has been long recognized that basic purpose of education is to bring out treasure within the student for social & economic development of nation. The aim of higher education system should be to provide an environment for deeper and more harmonious human development to include values of general personality development, sense to respect Indian tradition and loyalty to ancient Indian culture. Accordingly, Student Welfare office at IGDTUW provide ample scope, opportunities & facilities for multidimensional development of personality & leadership qualities among students. Students effectively participate in social & cultural activities, sports activities, literally activities, professional activities under various clubs and societies under the mentorship of experienced faculty advisors.

It very consciously takes into account the socio-economic diversities against cultural relativism. IGDTUW is a first Technical Women University and has girl students of large Socio-Economic variations. DSW office provides facilities to articulate and nurture their creations and inspirations.
