Success in the current digital era lies at the convergence of technology, skilling and education.

I am deeply conscious of the fact that scientific and technological advancements, though critical, are by themselves not sufficient for the welfare of mankind. The main purpose of education is to enrich the character and hence we also focus on development of moral values and intellectual integrity in our students.

Ability to think critically, make informed decisions, being confident in social situations and leadership are some of the qualities that we develop in the young persons who chose Galgotias University. I am confident that with this transformative education our students will be ready to take their rightful place as high contributing citizens of our great nation.

The Campus is teeming with activities such as student clubs, sports, cultural performances, hackathons etc. which create a rich and vibrant culture. I welcome all the students and encourage you to take advantage of the opportunities that the university has to offer.

I wish you all the very best as you set out on this incredible journey at the university which will shape your destiny.
