About Center
About the Sub-Centre, Kinwat
The Late Shri Uttamrao Rathod Tribal Development and Research Centre (LSURTD&RC), Kinwat, functioning under Swami Ramanand Teerth Marathwada University, Nanded, is a pioneering institution in Maharashtra. The Centre is distinguished by its unique foundation, strong infrastructure, academic excellence, and deep commitment to social responsibility.
Established during the 2017–18 academic year by the Government of Maharashtra, the Sub-Centre was created in response to public demand and university recommendations. Its primary mission is to support and nurture students from the Kinwat region.
Specialized undergraduate and postgraduate programs, namely:
· Bachelor of Social Work (B.S.W.) – Intake 40 Seat
· Master of Social Work (M.S.W.) – Intake 40 Seat
Situated in a NITI Aayog-notified Aspirational Block, the Centre plays a crucial role in bridging the higher education gap among tribal youth. In this remote and forested region, geographical isolation and socio-economic challenges often force students to discontinue their education. Many talented students are compelled to migrate to distant cities under difficult circumstances to pursue higher studies.
To address these challenges, the Government of Maharashtra has provided: ✔ Land for institutional development ✔ Financial support for construction of the main building ✔ Salary grants for 15 staff members
These initiatives ensure the sustained growth and impact of the Sub-Centre in empowering tribal students through quality higher education.
