The prime objective of IPSDR is to take care of un-employability in higher education, develop the human capital, and contribute its bit to the greater cause of development. IPSDR, therefore, proposes to offer specifically designed courses at all the levels in higher education, i.e., add on certificate courses ,advanced PG diploma programs and post graduate degree programs.

Along with other degrees now courses on Microsoft certified technologies shall also be offered.
Centre for Journalism & Media Studies - The Center for Journalism & Media Studies was launched in 2006-07 with quite modest infrastructural resources. The aim here is to act dynamically to redefine the contemporary culture and society by grappling with issues that concern us most, and not merely problematize some half-real, half-imaginary theoretical entertainers of the intellect as happens with most academic pursuits. It also nurtures a distinct breed of young Indians who are passionate about their country, culture, society and vocation.
Central Library - It is situated in an expanded building near the administrative building. The library has high quality reference books related to curriculum, research and national, international level research and magazines.

Some students of the current batch have got placements in some of the renowned companies like HUL, Wipro, HCL and ICICI and also in some institutes even before the completion of the course.
