Pune: Education that combines innovation and skill development with traditional learning is essential for today’s students. Alongside fostering the scientific progress of the nation and encouraging research, it is equally important to instill cultural values that nurture love for the nation and a sense of dedication. MIT-ADT University is successfully delivering such education, which is why students and their parents increasingly trust the MIT brand. This was emphasized by Padma Bhushan Dr. Vijay Kumar Saraswat, Member of NITI Aayog and former Chairman of the Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO), during the 9th Foundation Day celebration of MIT University of Art, Design, and Technology, Vishwarajbagh, Pune.

Karad; MIT-ADT University Working President and Vice-Chancellor Prof. Dr. Mangesh Karad; Executive Director Prof. Dr. Sunita Karad; Pro-Vice-Chancellor Dr. Ramachandra Pujeri; Dr. Anant Chakradeo; Dr. Mohit Dubey; Registrar Dr. Mahesh Chopde; Dr. Virendra Shete; Dr. Nachiket Thakur; and Dr. Vipul Dalal, among others.

Prof. Dr. Mangesh Karad highlighted that MAEER's Education Group recently celebrated its 42nd Foundation Day. Under the visionary guidance of Prof. Dr. Vishwanath Karad, MIT-ADT University emphasizes the holistic development of students. Every staff member has played a vital role in the university’s growth, and there is a strong belief that the university will continue to achieve new heights in the future.

Quote:

"Indians have a bad habit of delaying things, which can negatively impact an organization's reputation. When I was delivering a speech at Fulton Hall in America, over 30,000 people were focused entirely on me. We must adopt the same discipline here because India has the potential to become a world leader. But merely talking about it won’t suffice; adopting the necessary discipline and values is crucial."

— Prof. Dr. Vishwanath D. Karad, Founding President, MAEER's MIT Education Group
