“When knowledge is rooted deep in the ethos of Indian culture, yet is a reflection of the world, you get an institution that’s truly global in nature”.
Valliammal College, a temple of knowledge, has grown from strength to strength, to be amongst the leading educational institutions of Chennai City right from its inception. Today, the role of a college is not only to pursue academic excellence but also to motivate and empower its students to be lifelong learners, critical thinkers, and productive members of an ever-changing global society.
We firmly believe that education is the key to a nation's progress and we take it as our bounded duty to provide the best academic training a student can possibly get. The institution endeavours to comfort the students with all the necessary knowledge and skills to become truly successful in the chosen field.
We provide an atmosphere to our students for multifaceted development, where learners are encouraged to channelize their potential in the pursuit of excellence. The talents, skills and abilities of each student are identified, nurtured, and encouraged to achieve their goals with the teacher being the facilitator. Various clubs such as NSS, YRC, RRC, Eco Club, Green Environment Club, Anti-Ragging Unit give an opportunity to the students to improve their skills and give them an opportunity to serve their lesser fortunate brethren.
While academic excellence is our major thrust, the college is also devoted to prepare the students for life, groom them to face the challenges of tomorrow, and encourage them to be socially relevant. We are geared up to meet the challenges with our distinctive tradition of committee system, greater participation of the faculty in the administration of the college, the support of its alumni and the credibility and acceptability it has gained over the years.
The road to success is discipline, hard work, dedication, integrity and character. We constantly work to inculcate these ideals in every student with the aim that they will be able to take up any responsibility in all walks of life.
As we move forward to transform this vision into reality, we will create endless opportunities for students, teachers, researchers and more in the coming years. I welcome you to join us in this exciting journey.
