About Christ University

Christ University is a higher education institution of more than 20,000 students and around 800 faulty members, based in Bangalore, Karnataka, India.

Founded in 1969 as a college that was autonomous from the state, Christ University is managed by the Catholic Church, but is secular in its outlook and welcomes students from every background.

It is ranked among the top private universities in India and offers internationally recognised undergraduate, postgraduate and research programmes across humanities, sciences, social sciences, law and engineering, among others. Christ University also offers shorter professional courses in business and management.

While its international student body is relatively small, it is wide-ranging, comprising of about 700 students across 58 different nationalities. Christ University prides itself on its international outlook, and holds partnerships with institutions across the world, including the University of Massachusettes Amherst in the USA, and Sheffield Hallam University in the UK.

Christ has three main campuses in Bengaluru, with the majority of teaching taking place at Bangalore Central campus, which has received several awards for its architecture and gardens, including the Mysore Horticulture Society “best institutional garden” award for 24 consecutive years.

As well as its Kengeri and Bannerghatta road campuses in Bengaluru, Christ has three separate campuses across India in Lavasa, Pune and Delhi.

Christ University prides itself on having a strict academic approach, but also a strong student community outside of study. The student council manages the university’s cultural societies, sports and games.

Notable alumni include the poet and art activist Ankur Betageri, Nicole Faria, best known as Miss Earth 2010, and several award-winning film actors.
