Faculty of Religion

The Faculty of Religion and Value Education is a voluntary association of teachers. It started functioning in 1978 with the objective of moulding a community that is intellectually mature, morally upright, emotionally stable, spiritually inspired and socially committed. The Faculty spearheads a chain of activities in fulfilment of this am and with the express intent of giving a better formation to students than is provided by an exclusively secular curriculum.

The Faculty conducts religious instruction classes regularly for students. It also organises retreats, seminars, orientation programmes, HRD programmes, prayer meetings etc. both for students, and the teaching and non-teaching staff.
