SRM Institute of Science and Technology (SRMIST) has welcomed over 200 international students to its Ramapuram and Tiruchirappalli campuses for the 2025 academic session. These students, along with their families, have travelled from countries such as Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Nepal, Thailand, Singapore, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia, choosing SRMIST as their destination for quality higher education and a global future.
To mark the induction of these students, SRMIST organised a special Heritage Visit to help them experience the rich cultural heritage of India. This initiative was designed to make the students feel welcome, introduce them to the country’s traditions, and build a sense of connection and community from the very beginning.
Speaking about this initiative, Dr. Kathiravan Kannan, Director at SRM Group of Institutions, said: “We are proud to welcome students from across Asia and the Middle East to our campuses. These young minds have chosen SRMIST as the stepping stone to the future. Our goal is not only to provide excellent education but also to create a supportive and inclusive environment where students from different cultures can thrive.”
The international students have enrolled in a range of undergraduate programmes such as Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning, Electronics and Communication Engineering, Civil Engineering, and Biotechnology, as well as postgraduate programmes including Biotechnology, Computer Science Engineering, and Electronics and Communication Engineering. SRMIST offers interdisciplinary courses, experienced faculty, and modern facilities, making it a popular choice for students from around the world.
