The MVN group of educational institutions traces its origins to schools and colleges set up in Haryana and adjoining regions of the National Capital Region. Building on this base, the promoters established MVN University to consolidate higher education programmes in engineering, management and allied disciplines on a single campus in Palwal. The university was constituted as a private university by the Government of Haryana under the state legislation governing self-financed private universities.
The campus is situated on the Delhi–Mathura highway corridor in Palwal district, placing it within the southern part of the NCR and within commuting distance of Faridabad, Gurugram and Delhi. The location offers connectivity through National Highway 19 (formerly NH-2) and the Palwal railway station on the Delhi–Mathura line.
The university is organised into schools and faculties that typically cover:
Programmes are offered at diploma, bachelor's, master's and doctoral levels, with research activity in selected departments.
As one of the private universities established in Haryana following the state's policy on self-financed higher education, MVN University contributes to expanding access to professional and technical courses in the southern NCR belt, an area that has historically depended on institutions in Delhi, Faridabad and Mathura for higher studies.
