Education plays a key role in the overall development of the society. The role of education is definitely not limited to giving and grasping knowledge and theory. The true goal of education transcends much beyond just awarding a degree and certificate to the students. As Mahatma Gandhi said, "By Education, I mean an all round drawing out of the best in child and man- body, mind and spirit". The ultimate goal of education is the discovery of the meaning of life and the fulfillment of life and all mankind as well as for oneself. The quest of education is knowledge, humanity, culture, wisdom and sharpness, but it should be noted that knowledge is not given but earned and character is not granted, but cultivated.
Karnatak Science College not only focuses on the theoretical
curriculum, but also helps in the development of a student
personality, extra-curricular activities and overall perspective.
Everything that makes a good institution are - a highly trained
faculty, rich library, teaching methods, liberty to think and
express themselves- we have it here. We believe that education
is an effective medium of social transformation. We get
encouragement, looking at bright and successful careers of our thousands of students, which subsequently benefit the society.
We should feel proud that we are part of such an excellent
institute, which is shaping modern India. It gives me immense
pride to acknowledge the contribution of all the members of
teaching and non-teaching staff to various endeavors undertaken
by the college. Together we plan to reach richer landmarks in
future.
