Addressing the students, Shri HP Singhania, said, “Our aim is not to have students who will excel at studies and academics, but really be good citizens and contributors to our nation. And for that, it is not adequate to learn just what one has in terms of our knowledge and excellence, but to have the skills or the ability to be employed”.

Shri Asheesh Gupta, in his address, congratulated students for having taken a wise decision in choosing JKLU, where ample opportunities are provided to pursue their chosen areas of interest with wide flexibility in choosing additional inter-disciplinary courses or spending a semester in a partner IIT or IIIT or a western university.

The respective Directors of the Institutes of Engineering, Design and Management shared their own perspectives and extended a warm welcome to students of their particular institutes and to JKLU in general.
