Karpagam University s (Karpagam Academy of Higher Education) genesis goes back to September 1995 when it was initiated as Karpagam Arts & Science College. The college was promoted by the Karpagam Charity Trust, incepted by the renowned Karpagam Industries. Today, more than 15 years later, those humble beginnings have paved the way for us to emerge as a University of repute, a status granted by the MHRD and UGC (Under section 3 of UGC Act, 1956) in 2008.
