MESSAGE FROM VICE-CHANCELLOR

 

The first academic year of SASTRA in its new avatar as a Deemed University , has witnessed events that every member of the SASTRA family feels proud to recall. As always the case, SASTRA University had the divine fortune to have Their Holiness, The Sankaracharyas of Kanchi visiting the campus. It is indeed a divine blessing that Their Holiness also inaugurated the Satellite Campus of SASTRA University at  the historic town of the Kumbakonam. This has spread the wings of SASTRA University in its endeavor to provide quality higher education.

 

The signing of MoUs with Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, with semiconductor Complex Ltd., Chandigarh, International Conference on Nano Computing. Purchase of mathematical genius Srinivasa Ramanujam’s house at Kumbakonam with an intention to create a memorial, establishing a Super Computer Center which is the first of its kind, introduction of new and innovative courses, construction of new buildings etc. have been some of the  hallmark achievements of SASTRA University  during the academic year 2001-02.  We bring this academic year to a close hoping that the dawn of the next will open the gates of educational excellence to SASTRA University.

 

I wish all the readers a Happy Tamil New Year’s    Day. I pray to the Almighty that this New Year, aptly named ChitraBhanu , bring glory in various manifestations.
