“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” – Nelson Mandela

Education is not just about acquiring knowledge—it is a journey of self-discovery and understanding the world around us. At SSGI, we believe education is the most transformative tool to shape a better future. Our mission is to empower students to think critically, act ethically, and contribute meaningfully to society. As educators, we do not merely hand over solutions; instead, we cultivate an environment where students learn to ask questions, seek answers, and grow into lifelong learners. As the saying goes, “Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant.”

The heart of any educational institution is its faculty, and at SSGI, our dedicated faculty are committed to fostering a supportive learning environment where students can thrive. We believe that if you can dream it, you can achieve it. Success is not just about talent; it is about perseverance, resilience, and the courage to try again. Mistakes are not failures—they are stepping stones to innovation and progress.

In today’s rapidly evolving world, outcome-based education plays a crucial role in preparing students for the future. We are continuously enhancing our academic programs and learning methodologies to align with global standards. Through a student-centric approach, we offer a diverse range of courses, provide opportunities for international exposure, and facilitate faculty and student exchanges. This holistic learning experience not only enriches the academic journey but also equips our students with the skills and confidence to excel on a global stage.

At SSGI, we recognize the importance of producing not just graduates, but industry-ready professionals who can meet the demands of a competitive world. With our unwavering focus on quality education, we are proud to have achieved a consistent record of successful placements. Our graduates not only match their global counterparts but often surpass them, thanks to the robust academic foundation and practical exposure they receive here.

I urge every student to dream big, work diligently, and never compromise on integrity. Embrace challenges, learn from setbacks, and always strive for excellence. Believe in yourself, trust your mentors, and stay true to your values.

Together, let us shape a brighter tomorrow. Come, let’s make a difference!

I will start this message on a rather concerning note, in the year 2019 the UNICEF chief Henrietta Fore warned-“Over Half of Indian youth will not have skills for the 21st century jobs” So my question to you all is – Why? What is the problem our education system is facing currently? The answer can be found in the same report which claims that our education system is not aligned with what the world demands in 21st century i.e. Industry specific Skills and our government is also keen to take major steps in that direction.

The New Education policy 2020 clearly states -“Education must move towards less content and more towards critical thinking and being creative and multi disciplinary”. And we at Sri Sharda want to be the forerunners in this change and work on how to adapt, innovate and absorb new material in novel changing fields.

The approach of having a sound industry academia interface is must to ensure that we equip our students with the tools required to not just survive but also to excel in the today’s skill driven and technology oriented world. Since we have always understood the importance of this approach, teaching here at Sri Sharda goes beyond the walls and we establishes an industry-academia link by providing our students exposure through summer internship programe, industrial visits, value addition programe like personality grooming classes, CCC classes and certification and other skill development certification courses from the top IITs in addition to regular classroom lectures and academic structure.

We also value the expertise and experience that learned men from the industry can offer our students so we regularly arrange guest lecturers from people of diverse backgrounds including academicians, industry leaders and bureaucrats. We work to first understand and explore the underlying potential and interest of the student and then prepare him for a job and future in his area of interest by providing him the required and desired industry specific skills.

As it is rightly said “Changes begins with you wanting to change” and if you want to change how your future will look in the years to come we at Sri Sharda are very much willing to be the catalyst in your process.
