Mission

• The highest standards of excellence in teaching, creative expression and service to the community;

• Advanced learning as a humanising social practice rather than as a competitive exercise;

• Upholding the principle that the culture of reason and learning is indivisible from a concern for the world beyond the campus;

• Abiding by principles that do not discriminate on the basis of religion, race, caste, gender and economic status.
