MR.E.RAMACHANDRAN - FOUNDER
Welcome to Sri Balaji Colleges
It gives me great pleasure to welcome you for this College Website. It is hard to decide what to pursue after under graduation/post graduation in a college is probably one of the important challenge in your life. It’s hard to choose where to continue your studies when you have plenty of options. This brochure will guide you through and answers most of the questions that you want to answer before making that important final decision. I invite you to visit us in the heart of the town Cheranmahadevi, Tirunelveli at one of our career Counseling Meeting.
The environment we have created here at Sri Balaji College of Education is quite unique and I am very proud to have such individuality. The College is home to a lively community of almost 200 students of all ages, and from around 5 districts of Tamil Nadu, all with a keen interest in the field of education and aspire to become primary, secondary and high school teachers. Our Knowledge Temple campus development programme ensures that our students have access to excellent teaching and recreational facilities, in many cases not comparable by other colleges.
We provide all our students with the ability to study to every high standard and the opportunity to gain and develop important teaching & life skills, enabling them to grow in confidence and successfully progress onto higher education or into employment. Research in education is one of the high priority areas of teacher education research. It’s compulsory for each student to undertake one research project in their course of study so as to prepare them for master degree in education. Our faculty to student ratio is 1:15
To be named as one of the top institutes in teacher education providers in the country and our initiative towards centre of excellence is “Shri Ramachandra teacher education Research & innovation Centre” encourages cutting edge research in education and has international collaboration with American, European and rest of the world universities. We are planning to send few students and faculties through student and staff exchange programme to abroad.
Many students find the progression from school to college is academically challenging. It is not a surprise as the way you learn, study and assessed in college is very different than anything you have experienced at school. Some of our students are returning to study after a long break. Their learning skills may be out of date, which might affect the performance and the confidence. At Sri Balaji College, we understand these issues and take pride of giving individualized outstanding level of support that we able to offer.
