The Dr. Gurdev Singh Khush Foundation for Advancement of Agricultural Sciences was established in 2010 with a generous endowment, with the mission to advance agricultural education and research.

  • Awarding scholarships to deserving and meritorious students of PAU, GADVASU, and other academic institutions, with a special focus on students from  rural areas of the Punjab.
  • Providing  travel grants to young scientists and post-graduate students to facilitate their participation in national and international scientific  conferences. 
  • Inviting eminent scholars to deliver lectures and share their expertise  with the faculty and students of PAU and GADVASU, thereby enriching academic discourse and fostering knowledge exchange.
