With a considerable number of new universities opening their doors in India, it has become difficult to choose the right one. However, quality beats quantity, which is exactly the case of Alliance University, Karnataka.
Set up in the year 2010 by Act No. 34 of the Karnataka State, Alliance University has emerged as a premier student-focused university in South India within such a short span of time.
Alliance School of Business - the university's oldest professional school - is consistently ranked among the top ten private business schools in India by various ranking agencies. Apart from the School of Business, the University has also established schools for several other streams, which include Engineering, Design, and Law.
Under the leadership of its Chancellor, Professor Sudhir G Angur, Alliance University is in the process of establishing several other prominent academic units - Alliance College of Arts and Humanities, Alliance College of Science, Alliance College of Medicine and Dentistry, Alliance College of Education and Human Services, Alliance School of Health Sciences, and Alliance College of Media and Communications.
Carrying its legacy of success over the last seven years, Professor Sudhir G Angur aims to take the University to new heights by introducing new career-oriented degree courses and diplomas. "Change is the law of life. We can make our students competitive enough to face the cut-throat competition in the world today, only by understanding the demands of the changing times," he said.
On being asked what makes Alliance University stand apart, Professor Sudhir said it was the ambience and serenity of a world class infrastructure housed in a 'green' campus, and faculty who have proven themselves in their respective fields by providing an excellent blend of rigor and relevance in their teaching; staff who are ever ready to reach out.
