Annual Report 2014 Message from Chancellor

Dr. M. R. Doreswamy Ex-MLC (GOK) Chancellor, PES University

"Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself" says John Dewey. At PES, we believe that rigors of the contemporary world require professionals not to end their quest for knowledge along with their stay in the campus. The dynamics of the fast- changing world urges the academicians to give the right impetus for making life-long learners out of students. Thus, academia is expected to sketch the outline of this future society and mark the path to reach that goal. At the PES University, students enjoy personal attention, state-of-the-art technology, quality classes and faculty who truly care about the quality of education each student receives. The combination of high quality curriculum and cutting- edge technology makes for satisfied students with high job placement rates.PES's founding principles – Perseverance, Excellence and Service – have remained strong through the years as our academic focus has expanded from teaching-learning to research. PES University's fundamental mission, in addition to education and research, is to ensure that our scholarship, when appropriate, can be brought to bear on the complex challenges facing society. In addition to creating fertile young for professional and personal success we have committed ourselves to create responsible citizens with ethics and good social conduct. This has been laid out in the vision of PES University “To create professionally superior and ethically strong global workforce”. I congratulate the efforts of all stakeholders on successful completion of first year of PES University and brining out its First Annual Report.
