\n\tRamaiah Legacy of Building a Knowledge Society<\/strong>
\n\tSpeaking on the occasion, Chief Minister Shri D.K. Shivakumar appreciated the contribution of the Ramaiah Group of Institutions to education and the development of Bengaluru and Karnataka. He highlighted the role played by the institutions in creating generations of professionals, entrepreneurs and leaders and in contributing to the building of a knowledge-driven society.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tRISM: Global Knowledge Meets Technology<\/strong>
\n\tDr. M.R. Jayaram, Chancellor, RISM, highlighted the vision behind the new institution and its focus on global academic engagement, research, innovation and emerging technologies.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\tA key pillar of RISM\u2019s academic vision is its collaboration with the University at Albany, State University of New York. The partnership is intended to provide students with access to global academic expertise, knowledge, research and emerging technologies, while creating opportunities for international exposure and industry-relevant learning.<\/p>\n

\tThe collaboration brings together the educational legacy of the Ramaiah Group and the global academic strengths of the University at Albany, creating an environment designed to prepare students for a rapidly changing world.
\n\t\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tNareyana Pragnalaya \u2013 Abode of Wisdom<\/strong>
\n\tDr. M.R. Jayaram also highlighted the significance of Nareyana Pragnalaya, the name given to the new RISM campus for which the foundation stone was laid.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\tNareyana Pragnalaya means \u2018Abode of Wisdom\u2019 and envisions a transformative space where knowledge becomes wisdom, learning inspires discovery, and education shapes enlightened minds.<\/p>\n

\tRooted in timeless values and driven by a vision for tomorrow, the campus is envisioned to nurture intellect, creativity, character and compassion, empowering generations to learn, lead and shape a better world.<\/p>\n

\tThe foundation laying therefore represents more than the creation of a new campus. It marks the beginning of a new academic environment where knowledge, technology, research and human values come together.<\/p>\n

\tThe inauguration of RISM and the foundation laying of Nareyana Pragnalaya extend the enduring legacy of the Ramaiah Group of Institutions and Gokula Education Foundation into a new generation of global, technology-enabled and future-ready education.<\/p>\n
