Greetings!
St. Xavier’s College (Autonomous) begins this academic year, its 71st year of academic excellence and I am glad to serve the College, my alma mater, as the Principal. Our College has been moulding generations of students with Jesuit pedagogy which is almost five centuries old. We strive to offer our best in academic, sports, and other extra and co-curricular fields.
At Xavier’s we believe in and strive towards holistic formation of young minds emphasizing intellectual, character, emotional, physical and spiritual formation through quality education. We mould young girls and boys to become persons for others, to serve the humanity, and become contributors of nation building.
Our focus is threefold: academics, research, and extension activities. Our excellent faculty and staff are committed to accompany the young and vibrant minds towards quality academic and research inputs, which form a strong foundation for their professional life. We also give opportunities to engage in some extension activities in service of the wider society.
Our implementation of NEP 2020 since the academic year 2023-24 is paving newer ways to enhance the ability, skillsets and academics of the student community.
Welcome to Xavier’s – it is not just a College, but a way of life!
Jai Xavier’s, Jai Bharat!
Best wishes,
Dr. Fr. David K Roy SJ
