Established Partnership

Generous ongoing support of the Aggarwal and Gupta Family Foundation towards Chinmaya Vishwa Vidyapeeth (Chinmaya University) has helped the University grow from its infancy to a full-fledged university offering courses in Liberal Arts as well as Computer Sciences and Engineering. The mix of Indian Knowledge system and western education is creating scholars ready to take on contemporary global challenges. Patronage of organizations like AGFF, is making it possible for the University to advance on its mission to teach and prepare students to leave a positive impact on the world.
