Funded entirely by educationists, industrialists, businessmen and individuals, Vignana Jyothi Society was conceived in the year 1990 as a not-for-profit organization. Education determines a society's growth and development. Vignana Jyothi thus decided to make utmost contribution to the society through Education. The members, being eminent personalities and philanthropists, who have been successful in their endeavours, set out with a common desire to serve the community through value-based education. The Philosophy of Vignana Jyothi unravels education as a process of "Presencing™" that provides, both individually and collectively, to one's deepest capacity to sense and experience the knowledge and activities to shape the future. Based on a synthesis of direct experience, leading edge thinking and ancient wisdom, it taps into 'deeper levels of LEARNING for discovering new possibilities'. Today, with this philosophy, Vignana Jyothi has created an edifice that is strong in its foundations, which can only rise higher and higher. Quality and integrity is the essence for achieving Excellence at Vignana Jyothi Institutions. This and quest for Excellence reflects in the vision and mission. Their passion reflects in the enterprise of education.
