Dear Students,
You are now the pillars, future success stories and ambassadors of an institution that was founded by a visionary who accomplished much and dreamt of a young, aspirational India propelled to great heights through education and skilling in the best possible environment. It was this vision that moved the late Mr. Vinod Gomber to establish Raffles University as a temple of learning even as he exhorted the youth of our country to “Be inspired, broaden your horizons, aim for excellence and achieve all your dreams”. Mr. Gomber rose, in life, to become an acknowledged international figure in business and enterprise management through sheer dint of honest commitment, learning, application and the diligent pursuit of goals. Inspired by Mahatma Gandhi, Mr. Vinod Gomber regarded himself as trustee willing to deploy his considerable resources for the benefit and growth of the younger generation.

Raffles University remains true to the visions and precepts of its founder. Nestled at the foot of the Aravallis and spread over a wide, verdant expanse, this University opens, to you students, the doors of academic excellence in the best of all possible surroundings with teaching being imparted and skills being shared by a well qualified and dedicated faculty. Here, in the environs of the University, you will be encouraged and assisted to understand your goals and be guided to successfully attain them. In order to ensure that students realize and even exceed their potential, Raffles University has taken care that the very best in pedagogy is supported by effective tools by way of laboratories, a well stocked library, comfortable classrooms, playgrounds, and safe as well as comfortable hostel facilities.

As you gain valuable qualifications in law, management, engineering, pharmacy, arts, sciences and agriculture, the University will also help you develop and polish your interpersonal skills through moot courts (for budding lawyers), seminars, colloquiums, guest lectures, participative academics, debates, indoor and outdoor sports and field visits. When you emerge from the portals of this University, you would be fully equipped to overcome challenges and succeed in life. I conclude, dear students, with the certain belief that each and everyone of you will be inspired and moved by the example set by Mr. Vinod Gomber. This University will help you emulate his example and as you rise in life you, and your network of fellow alumni shall forge ahead together to become captains of commerce, industry, governance, law and technology as also leaders of the society you serve.
My very best wishes to you all.

Mr. Udayan Mukerji, IPS (Retd.)

Chairperson, Raffles University
