One of the youngest Universities in the Country, REVA has become a Global name in a short span. Its recognition for excellence and its popularity as a chosen destination for higher education rests on a few factors that elevate it. REVA was accorded with the status of a University by the Government of Karnataka on invitation in 2012. Again one of the few to be conferred with this honour. REVA has become a part of the progressively elite community of intellectuals that drive change and transformation through innovation in all fields. Offering courses and programs through varied disciplines, REVA is today a single stop for many career choices. The pedagogy and curriculum is designed keeping in mind the latest in research and industry, a flexible tool for learning.
Identifying the acute need for industry ties in bridging the gap between academia and the real world, REVA has introduced this interface and infusion in everyday education. Teaching environment has in the recent times seen a serious paradigm shift. The classes have transcended physical forms and moved to a more open, virtual discourse and exposure.
“We are the modern educators. We step outside the classroom to give each student a unique learning environment. We embrace novelty and originality and celebrate differences. We instil what we learn. Learning is, and must remain the be all and end all of all endeavours in society. At REVA we strive to achieve this.” – Dr. P. Shyama Raju, Chancellor, REVA University, Bengaluru
REVA employs teaching using the most fluid, modern and technology-driven accessible methods, bringing in inventive thought that challenges the learner. In simpler words, the scope of the subject, material and accessibility has increased manifold but the experience remains singular for each learner.
Digitisation is the most ubiquitous practice at REVA, once again adapting to global changes and answering dire environmental concerns. Lectures are available online, with digitised classrooms. Exams are tab based, all official procedures are online, the campus runs paper and plastic free.
Research and Innovation has been given precedence over all. The University encourages enterprise in students and faculty, with an established research centre for ground-breaking work and Incubation Centre for budding entrepreneurs and start-ups. The best and well-equipped labs and exclusive libraries for each school, seminar halls and auditoriums and centre of excellence for hands-on learning with the industry best, REVA boasts of the most modern facilitating infrastructure.
Going beyond academics, the lush green 45 acres of the campus is a hub of constant activity, with annual fests, cultural programs, Inter University competitions, Student Expo and more than 300 student clubs at play. The University has won many accolades including the Swachh Campus Award by MHRD for its contribution to the environment through measures steps, Gold Band Rating by QS I- Gauge, Best University by Jagran Josh and many more.
