Future Plans of SVKM
"What we enjoy now is the fruit of what we did yesterday and what we will enjoy tomorrow is what we are planning and doing today" is the driving force behind the growth and success of Sarva Vidyalaya Kelvani Madal, Kadi, Gujarat.
Sarva Vidyalaya kelvin Mandal, Kadi has been pioneering education in Gujarat State and India since 1919. It has entered and created a fabulous name in the higher education segment aiming at bringing a transformation in it with quality, up-to-date and fitting-to-global-standard teaching and training given to the dynamic and forward-looking young community. SVKM wants to pioneer each and every sphere of higher education and research and towards achieving this, it has planned to fill up the vacuum by establishing a World-Class Research Centre, and a Medical College in the near future.
SVKM-Research Centre
Research plays a crucial role in enhancing and upgrading the knowledge and skill of the teaching community which, in turn, helps them deliver quality teaching and training to the students. It is therefore considered as the main pillar of the world-class teaching environment. Hence, SVKM has thought of establishing a Research Centre of its own to make its teaching faculty undergo serious and rigorous research work. As part of the activity, the centre will provide the necessary resources and environment to the faculty members of various disciplines to write research papers and books; organize and conduct seminars, panel discussions, and workshops on contemporary issues; and go for national and international conferences with contributions in different areas of study.
Medical College
A facet of the future growth of SVKM in the health-education segment is the establishment of a Medical College, which it thinks, is an emergency need of a society of our kind. The number of medical colleges is far less than what we require in India and abroad. Moreover, financing such expensive projects is becoming increasingly difficult on the part of the government in a capital-deficient developing country like that of ours. Hence, SVKM has shown a keen interest in helping towards bridging this gap by providing society with doctors equipped with the right kind of knowledge required to fight the growing number of patients in the country and abroad. The proposed medical college would be set up in the same manner as Nursing College was set up i.e., under Public Private Partnership with the Government of Gujarat.
