Greetings from the Principal’s desk!

Education plays a key role in the overall development of the society. The role of education is definitely not limited to giving and grasping knowledge and theory. As Mahatma Gandhi said, "By Education I mean an all-round drawing out of the best in body, mind and spirit". Since its establishment in 1964, St. Joseph’s College (Autonomous), stands tall as a Centre with Potential for Excellence in the field of Education and an A grade in the third cycle of NAAC Accreditation. Whatever makes an educational institution excellent, be it a supportive, positive and progressive management team, a team of highly trained faculty members, rich library, modern teaching methods, liberty for students to think and express themselves, excellent infrastructure facilities, placement division- we have it here. St. Joseph’s strives to maintain an ecosystem which will help each of its students grow leaps and bounds in the few years that they spend at the campus and bloom into their true selves. Our competent and dedicated faculty strive with uncompromising dedication for the all-round development of every student. Our students get to benefit from a learner-centric teaching-learning methodology which helps to cater to the enhancement of their multifaceted aptitudes, intelligence, learning styles and interests.

We also take great pride in the fact that St. Joseph’s College not only focuses on the theoretical curriculum, but also helps in building a student’s personality, character and their sense of social responsibility. Thus, co-curricular and extra-curricular activities, including sports, are also equally encouraged among the students to ensure a multi-dimensional personality development of the learners. Their spiritual growth of the student is also given utmost importance. We constantly strive to uphold the great words of our foundress Saint Mariam Theresia “Knowledge of God is above all knowledge.”

Our illustrious alumni are a testament to this as they act as strong pillars of their respective communities and active contributors to the economic, social and cultural welfare of the society and country at large. Thus St. Joseph’s assures its students growth even beyond the walls of its campus.

In the years to come, St. Joseph’s will certainly continue to have a cutting edge in the field of education as it moves from strength to strength. We are constantly guided by the inspirational vision of Saint Mariam Theresia, which is

“To imparting value-based education for the holistic development of women” I am gratified to be a pin in the machinery of the institution and humbled and highly honoured to be handpicked by the divine providence to take over the reins, and contribute my best to carry on the good work of my illustrious predecessors. May God help me in this effort. I wish all the students a grand success in their career and prosperity in their future life.
