In a world that is continuously evolving, the objective of any university is to prepare students for life beyond classrooms. There is a high demand for students who can adapt alongside technology to thrive in the evolving world around us. One of the best ways to help students grow in this competitive world is by embracing experiential learning.
Also known as learning through experience, experiential learning emphasizes learnings beyond classroom activities. Such form of pedagogy is often proven to give a more precise understanding of a subject in an engaging way than one can learn in the classroom. We at REVA University focus on developing students who can adapt and thrive in this evolving world.
Focusing on learning beyond classrooms, let's look at how life at REVA looks like.
What REVA is known for?
REVA University is located at Yelahanka, a lush suburb of Bangalore. REVA University's campus offers you the best of both worlds: city and suburb. The University's curriculum that is crafted with perfection provides you with plenty to explore, see, and experience while pursuing your studies.
The University campus is diverse in nature and has a friendly community. We are committed to providing a positive learning environment that is free from any form of bullying, harassment and discrimination. So that student's imagination can thrive, and their dream can turn into reality.
Our mission is to develop students with excellent leadership qualities, ethical and moral values. We strive to do this by promoting a research culture that will develop innovating skills among students. Besides, the University has various clubs and societies, such as Amateur Scientist Club, Pi - Club, C V Raman Club, Eco club, CULTURAL (Dance, Music, Drama, Poetry Club, IOE Club, Art of Living Club), and others to enhance communication skills and build connections.
Events
To prepare students for real-world challenges, various schools under the umbrella of REVA University organize extracurricular events. These events are engaging in nature and give students a platform to showcase unique ideas, innovation and talent.
The primary focus is on upgrading the skills of students while imparting knowledge in their respective domain of study. Moreover, these events consist of talks by market leaders in the respective field, exhibitions to promote student talents, seminars, workshops and training programmes. Concerts, film screenings, sports events and awareness programmes are also part of these events to increase a student’s confidence and engage them.
Central Library
To provide continuous access to information for the students and faculty members of the University, we have built the REVA University Central Library in the heart of the campus. It has a seating capacity of 800 people and possesses a vast collection of books and journals in both print and digital forms. To streamline the inventory management of books, we have implemented RFID. The benefit of RFID is that it provides efficiency to locate and systematize library materials.
Pollution free campus
To give a pollution-free environment where students can find peace and greenery, we have crafted a green park and open-air theatre, which is located right opposite the Central Library. The park is designed to keep the environment around comfortable and healthy. It has a variety of trees, bushes, and a lush green lawn. It is a place for students to study, meet friends, discuss in groups, and enjoy nature.
In the heart of the green park is where the Open Air Theatre resides. The Open Air Theatre hosts a variety of cultural programs for various student groups.
Counselling centres
Our mission is to provide quality mental health interventions that enhance the well-being of students and offer them a more meaningful and successful college experience. As it has been seen during our youth years, we learn a lot of things which are not only in academics but as also in other areas. In these learning years, it is common to face some challenges, such as:
Surprisingly most of the students go through more than one above-mentioned challenges that make a negative impact on their academic performance as well as lifestyle. Students are hesitant to talk about these problems with their parents, friends or teachers as they are worried about the consequences. Our university has provided counselling services within the campus. The counsellor helps students to positively address their problems, explore options, develop strategies and increase self-awareness.
At REVA University, we aim to enrich our students with a learning experience which is contemporary and engaging. After all, the years spent in a university create memories that last a lifetime.
