Date of Establishment

23rd September, 1887

Motto
QUOT RAMI TOT ARBORES
(As Many Branches, So Many Trees
)

which envisages the desired transformation of each Branch (student) into a full-fledged Tree (a self realized entity, spreading the intellectual and social culture and objectives of the institution in accordance with the destiny of each Branch to become a tree in its own right).

This credo has exemplified the mission of the University through the years of its momentous history.
