The Central University of South Bihar (CUSB) is one of the sixteen newly established Central Universities by the Government of India under the Central Universities Act, 2009 (Section 25 of 2009).[1] The university is located at the premises of Birla Institute of Technology, Patna (BIT Campus, P.O.- B.V. College, Patna – 800 014).[2] The university is likely to be relocated to Panchanpur, approximately 10 km from Gaya on Defence land to be transferred soon. The area near Panchanpur where the university campus is to be started has good natural scenic beauty with lots of greenery. It takes about 15 minutes by road from Gaya Railway Station to the University Campus. The closest village to the campus is Dariyapur easily visible from the main gate of the University Campus. The decision of the central government to build the university campus in Gaya has many advantages since the location of Gaya and Panchapur is very strategic with International exposure. Bodh Gaya can be reached within 30-35 mins by road from the university campus. Since the campus is very big, it may provide excellent environment of education. Keeping in view of the permanent location of the university at Gaya, it has been decided to launch new academic programmes at Gaya. It operates from a temporary campus on the grounds of Birla Institute of Technology, Patna. The university will now have its own campus in Gaya. On 28 February 2014, Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar laid the foundation stone of the Central University of South Bihar at Gaya.[3] It will be spread in 300 acre campus. After establishment of Mahatama Gandhi Central University in Motihari after the Central Universities (Amendment) Act 2014 is passed in Rajya Sabha, the university will be renamed to Central University of South Bihar.[4] Third Central University in Bihar will be established at Vikramshila in Bhagalpur.[5][6][7]
