About Christ University

CHRIST (Deemed to be University) was born out of the educational vision of St. Kuriakose Elias Chavara, a nineteenth- century educationalist and social reformer from South India. He founded the Carmelites of Mary Immaculate (CMI) in 1831. Established on July 15, 1969, as an affiliated college with the vision of “Excellence and Service,” CHRIST quickly became a preferred educational institution in Bangalore. Accredited with a CGPA of 3.42 on a 4-point scale and an A+ grade by NAAC in 2022, it offers diverse Undergraduate, Postgraduate, and PhD programmes to over 30,000 students from across India and 60 countries. A hub of multiculturalism, CHRIST promotes creative excellence through sports, music, and literary activities. It has published over 300 books, six peer-reviewed journals, and continues its legacy of academic and cultural contributions
