CGC UNIVERSITY, MOHALI HONOURED WITH QS I-GAUGE INSTITUTE OF HAPPINESS (IOH) AWARD 2025–26

In a moment of profound pride and reflection, CGC University has been conferred with the prestigious QS I-Gauge Institute of Happiness (IOH) Award for the academic year 2025–26, a distinguished recognition that celebrates institutions committed to nurturing happiness, well-being, and holistic development within their academic ecosystems.

The IOH Award is accorded to select institutions that demonstrate dedication to creating a supportive, inclusive, and student-centric campus culture, where emotional well-being, mental health, and personal growth are placed at the heart of education. This honour stands as a belief to CGC University’s enduring belief that academic excellence flourishes best in an environment grounded in empathy, positivity, and purpose.

Receiving this recognition reaffirms the University’s sustained efforts to cultivate a campus where students feel heard, valued, and empowered, and where faculty and staff thrive within a culture of collaboration and mutual respect. From harbouring mental well-being initiatives and inclusive practices to encouraging innovation, creativity, and meaningful engagement, CGC University has consistently worked towards building an ecosystem that supports both personal fulfilment and professional growth.

This achievement is not the result of a single initiative, but the collective outcome of countless efforts driven by compassion, commitment, and shared values. It belongs to every student who contributes to a vibrant campus life, every faculty member who mentors with dedication, and every staff member who works tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure a nurturing and uplifting learning environment.

While the QS I-Gauge IOH Award brings with it a sense of accomplishment, CGC University receives this honour with humility and renewed responsibility. It strengthens the University’s resolve to continue evolving as a place where happiness and excellence walk hand in hand, shaping individuals who are not only academically accomplished but also emotionally resilient and socially conscious.

As CGC University moves forward, this recognition serves as both a milestone and a motivation to keep inspiring minds, uplifting spirits, and leading with compassion in the pursuit of meaningful education.
