St Joseph’s University is a Jesuit university at the heart of Bengaluru, the silicon city of India. Established in 1882 by Paris Foreign Mission Fathers, the management of the college was handed over to the Jesuit order (Society of Jesus) in 1937.
As a university, we are dedicated to excellence in education. Over the years, our students have been ranked among the finest in the country, as attested by our illustrious alumni. With an accomplished faculty both in teaching and research, the university is home to leading centres of excellence on campus. Here we try to create leaders for a better world, leaders deeply rooted in our philosophy “Fide et Labore” (a Latin phrase that means "Faith and Toil"), who commit themselves to excel in the fields they choose. We make every effort to be relevant, innovative, and creative. St Joseph’s continues to be a place of deep care for each person, especially those who feel most vulnerable. Join us and be part of this glorious enterprise!
