Chancellor’s Message
A little over four decades ago, the industrial house of Apeejay, as part of its social
commitment, made its first foray into the world of education, with a vision to provide quality education of global standards on the bed-rock of Indian ethos and culture, leading to man-making and nation-building. Through the years, the 29 Apeejay institutions set up across the country have become symbols of educational excellence in their own right, and the Apeejay spirit of ‘Soaring High’ is as strong as ever, personified by the success stories of countless Apeejayites, who have made a mark for themselves across the globe, carrying the Apeejay spirit in their hearts and minds, and making a difference in the lives of people and the world around them. The Apeejay Stya University is yet another milestone in our unending journey in pursuit of excellence – the culmination of a long-standing dream to establish a seat of global learning that reflects the best practices of the leading universities of the world. One that would set the standard for quality and innovation in higher education, in the teaching-learning of technology, liberal arts and research in the country, and would give to the world men and women who would be able to transverse their educational destinies in a supportive and nurturing environ that cherishes the independence of thought, creativity, academic autonomy, risk-taking, diversity and multiculturalism. The fast-changing world of tomorrow will be an exciting and a challenging place to live, where only people who adapt themselves to the situation, keep pace with upcoming technologies and have the ability to align their ideas, thoughts and ways of working to changing situations will survive. At ASU, we recognise this need to prepare the students for the challenges of the 21st century and to provide an atmosphere which will encourage them to become life-long learners and to work in a multi-cultural, ever-changing society. The prime objective of the University is not only to impart relevant knowledge and skills, but also to make our students experienced in critical thought, appreciative of creative expression, proficient in effective communication, aware of ethical standards, and rooted in universal and humanistic values. We want our students to develop into the leaders of tomorrow, infuse the world with the energy of their ideas and innovations, and advance the frontiers of knowledge and research in ways that translate into tangible benefits for the community and country. Welcome to Apeejay Stya University - one of India’s truly dynamic universities. At ASU, we have set for ourselves a high benchmark, not just in terms of academic standards, but also in transparency, accountability and governance. If you decide to enroll at ASU, you would find a wealth of learning opportunities in a vibrant campus that would serve as an essential stepping stone to a fulfilling life and career. Do join us on this journey!
