CUK Karnataka is a government university, established in 2009. The University offers courses at the UG, PG, and Doctoral level in 6 major fields, within the campus of 654 acres. It is NAAC accredited with grade of B+ and is UGC recognised. The University offers the respective courses through 10+ constituent Schools. 

Placement support for social work students is limited and often depends on the specialization—they may need to be proactive and rely on personal networking or departmental guidance to secure opportunities.

Internships are available, especially during later years, but structured fieldwork may not be consistent across specializations.

University-wide placement strength exists, though actual job placements within the BSW programme appear to be low.

A major concern about CUK for admission is the geographical placement of the University. The University is located in Srinagar and offers great set of courses along with placement opportunities and assistance. Apart from this, the University also offers scholarships for eligible candidates with technologically advanced infrastructure. It follows a Choice-Based Credit System (CBCS) for the evaluation of all UG and PG programmes.
