Teaching at the Campus follows a School system with interdisciplinary character. Each School offers interlinked courses under one roof with expert faculty. School system also imparts flexibility in planning and operation of the curricula. The university school system is based on the aspects of research, consultancy and extension services. At present schools have excellent instrumentation facilities and required expertise in its faculty. The campus schools also have externally funded research projects. The Schools also offer consultancy services. At present active consultancy activity is going on in the fields of Earth, Environmental, Chemical and Social Sciences.

Syllabi of the Campus Schools have been designed based on subject wise workshops, criticism and comments of experts from both academic and professional sphere. These criticisms and comments were again discussed amongst faculty in relation to their national and regional relevance before finally being incorporated in the syllabus. The revised syllabi feature introduction of interdisciplinary courses and new electives at PG level that support the job /self-employment potential and application orientation from view of public utility. All the Campus Schools have compulsory project work and continuous assessment. Seminars by students are also an essential part of the studies. All the syllabi have now been amended as per UGC model curricula. In addition to this the School of Earth Sciences follows Credit-Grading system of teaching and evaluation for all its courses since 2003-04.

An aspect in redesigning the courses of the Campus Schools has been the Regional Perspective of the courses. Marathwada is agriculture-dominated area and the problem with agriculture is underdeveloped irrigation potential both surface and sub-surface. There is not much industrial growth except for few pockets at district headquarters . Most of the industries are agro based. Another regional aspect is the devastating Killari (Latur) Earthquake of 1993 and still continuing seismic activity. Added to this are the alternating draughts and floods. Considering these regional needs some of the electives being offered on campus are Disaster Management, Geotechnical Engineering and Seismotectonics, Hydrogeology, Optimum Natural Resource Management, and Rural Development.

The selection of students for courses in Campus Schools is through an entrance test. The syllabi for entrance test are same as those for the subject concerned at the qualifying UG degree course.

The Schools have senior faculty members who have rich teaching and /or research experience in their fields. These senior faculty members are guiding students as well as their younger colleagues in their academic activity and pursuits. Schools also have younger faculty members who are gradually making a mark in their chosen field of research. More than 50% of the faculty members are with Ph.D. to their credit. This mixture of pliable younger minds and senior faculty members has created a healthy academic atmosphere resulting in a gradual boost in the research activity.

The University Establishment Committee had also stressed the need of starting University Consultancy Services as a source of Resource Generation for developmental activity. The selection of senior faculty of the University, especially in Science Faculty, was done with some bias towards professional experience involving work in National and International Organizations or Laboratories, which, would be useful for such services.

The research projects being planned and undertaken by faculty have regional utility, as University policy is to contribute to the regional development by generating the man power resource through the dedicated efforts of its faculty.
