The old Ravenshaw Campus with its majestic structures was set up in the year 1919 over about a hundred acres of land on the eastern side of Cuttack. After being a university, Ravenshaw has acquired about another hundred forty acres of land on the bank of river Mahanadi to build its second campus for the new disciplines of management and applied sciences. The old Ravenshaw campus is located very close to Cuttack Railway Station, and requires about 45 minutes of driving time to reach from Bhubaneswar Airport. As a young university, the old Ravenshaw is now in the throes of preservation and change. Its infrastructure, both academic and physical, is being strengthened and expanded to meet the needs to make it more contemporary, and raise the level of its excellence.
