Honorary Doctorate

An Honorary Doctorate is given by any university to the people who have made significant contribution either towards the university giving out the honorary degree or towards the society or nation at large.

An Honorary Doctorate is held at a very high esteem since it is a recognition coming from a third party who acknowledges your contribution towards the society or nation. The recipient of an Honorary Doctorate is allowed to use the initials “Dr.” before his / her name. Additionally, such recipients are also advised to use, though not mandated, the initials “H.C.” (Honoris Causa) towards the end of their name, so that people know that it is an Honorary Doctorate and not an Academic one.

IIOUF is also entitled to confer Honorary Doctorate, Honorary Professor and Honorary MBA titles to people of good public standing who have contributed positively towards the community, society or nation. Additionally, since IIOUF offers free and subsidized education to the students from the weaker sections of the society globally, the university also confers the Honorary title to a select few who willingly come forward contribute financially to assist us with this education initiative.
