- To inculcate extraordinary analytical, logical, soft skill and ethical values in students to make them ready for the modern world.
- To collaborate with premier institutions of India and abroad for research and teaching in the frontiers of science.
The aim of science and its study is to develop knowledge about the universe – constructing hypotheses and testing them to illuminate upon new ideas and discernment of the world around us.
The main motto behind the Faculty of Science is to create intuitive minds who ponder upon unique scientific ideas that may be inherently tentative, but as they test and re-test on them, they learn through the process and inculcate a scientific curiosity
The Faculty of Science, Sri Sri University believes that with the right input, the students can be molded to have an inquisitive mind in the way they perceive and interact with nature, which is why the curriculum of the offered courses are structured in a unique pattern deliberating the idea of the practical application of science and scientific methods.
The courses under the Faculty of Science follow Innovative teaching-learning activities like-Modular Based Teaching, Video-Based Teaching, e-learning, Webinars, Quiz Competitions, etc. Additionally, counseling is provided to help students overcome their academic/personal issues. Remedial classes are conducted to uplift the progress of the students and regular sessions and assignments help evaluate the progress of the students. We provide students the opportunity to develop their soft skills by organizing seminars and workshops.
