Chancellor’s Message<br />
His Holiness<br />
Jagadguru Sri Shivarathri Deshikendra Mahaswamiji<br />
Chancellor, JSS Academy of Higher Education & Research<br />
JSS Academy of Higher Education & Research is entering the second decade of its fruitful existence,<br />
coupled with a vision of modern excellence, after creating a niche for itself which is hard to match<br />
in such a short span of one decade. The Deemed-to-be-University, since its inception, has moved to<br />
become an Academy of Higher Education & Research receiving many accolades both nationally and<br />
internationally. This shows the quality of education and research available in the corridors of this<br />
organization, and its desire to excel its own standards. This ideal has been inculcated in the framework<br />
of the institution and followed, with a sense of commitment, by all those working in the Academy. It<br />
may be difficult to reach the pinnacle, but, even more difficult to remain there. It can be achieved only<br />
by continued and dedicated work in the pursuit of excellence. In achieving these objectives, the basic<br />
purpose to serve the society should also be kept on a top priority.<br />
The JSS Academy of Higher Education & Research is presenting its <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> 2017-18, having a<br />
motto as “Quality and Excellence”. This is not only a technical requirement for any institution, but a<br />
way of projecting its meaningful blossoming.<br />
