Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel University of Agriculture & Technology

Modipuram, Meerut, Uttar Pradesh

The Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel University of Agriculture & Technology in Modipuram, Meerut, is a landmark institutional campus that redefines the architectural expression of agricultural education and research in India. Designed by R. K & Associates, the project emerged as the winning entry among six national submissions, selected for its clarity in planning, academic efficiency, and sensitive response to context.

Spread across 274 acres along the Meerut–Roorkee Highway, the master plan integrates 12 distinct colleges, administrative facilities, libraries, laboratories, and residential precincts into a unified academic environment. The layout is guided by zonal efficiency, pedestrian accessibility, and landscape connectivity, ensuring seamless interaction between learning, living, and recreation. Architecturally, the campus embraces a blend of modern design principles with vernacular sensibilities, employing brick, concrete, and shading devices that respond to climate and function. Landscaped courtyards, colonnaded corridors, and open plazas enhance spatial experience while reinforcing a sense of academic community.
