Principal's Message

At the outset, I congratulate both the parents and their wards for their interest in Varadaraja Institute of Pharmaceutical Education & Research, Tumkur (VIPER) for professional education. I feel proud to announce that through professionally competent and experienced teachers we have persistently got very good results in the university examinations. Though the world has technologically advanced, majority of the employers expect satisfactory character, moral and ethical values in the candidates apart from professional competencies. Hence we in VIPER often instill these qualities into our students at an appropriate time to carve them to meet the employer’s expectations and succeed in their career. This is our uniqueness and we believe this as mantra of success.
Having a mere qualification and holding a degree is an obsolete thing in today’s highly competitive era. Students need to possess contemporary employable skills. We in VIPER schedule to organize written, spoken and presentation competitions for students to groom them and develop in holistic way as expected by the National Education Regulations 2020. We are well aware of the void between the Pharmacy academics and the corporate world by virtue of our wide professional network. To eliminate this, our institute has a mission to organize several relevant professional training programmes through concerned experts to impart value addition to our students at appropriate stages of their curriculum so that they become readily absorbable by the employers.
We are very much determined to see that every student who joins to VIPER will be able to realize their dreams and satisfy the expectations of their parents. My best wishes to one and all.
