- Collaboration
From its inception, the University has had numerous partnerships for academic collaboration with institutions in the state, Northeast region and elsewhere in the country. The associations have been formalised by MoUs. MLCU also has formal partnerships with universities in Bangladesh, the Philippines and Canada. These association enable the mutual enhancement of academics, research, student exchange, faculty development and community outreach.
These partnerships generally fall into five categories:
Experiential Learning Theory (ELT) provides a holistic model of the learning process and a multilinear model of adult development, both of which are consistent with what we know about how people learn, grow, and develop. Experiential learning theory defines learning as the process whereby knowledge, skills, and values are created through the transformation of experience. Knowledge results from the combination of grasping and transforming experience. It is distinct from rote and didactic learning, in which the learner plays a comparatively passive role.
The University Grants Commission encourages the use of experiential learning stating that, “Learners must have ample scope to formulate their own queries and have multiple interpretations of knowledge through self-search and experiential learning.”
To emphasize the importance of experiential learning, MLCU encourages the broad use of experiential strategies and tools, recommending that at least half of the learning time be spent in experiential learning.

Accreditation is the concept and process for the validation and recognition of educational courses taken at institutions other than colleges or universities for the purpose of transfer of credits towards degree programs at MLCU. Accreditation may be awarded for individual coursework or be awarded to an institution that conducts courses recognized by MLCU. Accreditation that is awarded to an institution may be formalized by an agreement with the University.
MLCU will consider transfer of credits for previous course work that has been taken by an applicant in the following categories or their equivalent:
- ITIs or polytechnics
- Community colleges
- Institutes set up by Trusts or Societies
- Any institute conducting courses recognized by a Government Ministry or statutory body
- The course work should have been taken after a Plus 2 certificate. In certain cases, the coursework could have been taken after the 10th standard, provided the course is recognized by a statutory body as equivalent to a Plus 2 certificate. Accreditation for course work taken after the 10th standard may also be granted by the University.
- Whether full-time or part-time, apart from the duration of the course, the number of hours/credits should be clearly indicated.
- The applicant should submit a request for credit transfer along with relevant certificates and transcripts.
- The application will be evaluated and considered for approval by the Dean, Academics.
- If considered necessary, an equivalency examination will be conducted.
- The University will ordinarily arrange a visit to the institution to ascertain the facilities, faculty and teaching program.
- The courses will be evaluated by a Board of Studies.
- If approved by the University, an agreement will be executed
- The ongoing academic monitoring and guidance shall be conducted by the Board of Studies with final approval by the appropriate academic committee of the University.

The rate of internationalization is growing rapidly with easier communication and travel. Universities across the world are already seeking to make the most of the possibilities this presents by forming global partnerships and fostering relationships with other institutions. In the globalized society we live in, international collaboration programs help by providing students with the ability to learn, work, and travel in an international capacity. With international exposure, students and faculty alike can enhance their ability to scrutinize, debate, and share experiences and global trends. These skills are essential for academic and scientific accomplishment especially in the development and implementation of research. Along with research opportunities and cross-cultural awareness, MLCU is also building this international relationship and academic collaborations with few universities. Through these collaborations, students can gain from international experiences including short-term training programmes, study tours, joint concerts, internship, and possible placements abroad. In terms of teaching, benefits include curriculum development and faculty training programme in collaboration with partner institutions.
