Swami Vivekananda University (SVU) aims to actualize Swami Vivekananda‘s educational vision of life building, and character-making education by combining the best elements of the East and the West. He envisioned an educational system wherein the rich cultural and spiritual heritage of our country with its hoary tradition of values like ‘sacredness of knowledge‘, ‘shraddha‘, ‘devotion to truth‘, etc., would be blended with modern science, and predominantly western values like scientific temper, rationality of outlook, fearless and objective investigation into the nature of the physical world, technological skill, work efficiency, team work, etc. Swami Vivekananda‘s emphasis on man-making and character-building education is always being kept in view in all the programmes and courses of study in the University bearing his hallowed name.
“Truth can be stated in a thousand different ways, yet each one can be true” – Swami Vivekananda
