There are moments in the life of an institution when you pause and realize just how far you have come.

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of meeting Dr Devarchana C. M., Gold Medallist of the first graduating batch of Manipal TATA Medical College, Jamshedpur, along with her proud parents. What began as a conversation about academic achievement soon became something much more meaningful—a reflection on courage, trust, and the journey of building something new together.

When MTMC welcomed its first batch in 2020, it was more than the opening of a medical college. It was the beginning of a vision—one that brought together the academic excellence of MAHE and the commitment of Tata Steel to create a new model of medical education in eastern India.

For students like Devarchana, choosing MTMC required belief. She arrived in Jamshedpur as a young student stepping into an unfamiliar city, away from the comfort of home, uncertain of what lay ahead. The institution itself was writing its first chapter, and so was she.

Five years later, sitting across from her as the Gold Medallist of the inaugural batch, I was struck by how beautifully those journeys had evolved together.

As MTMC celebrates its first-ever graduation ceremony in Jamshedpur as part of the 33rd Convocation of Manipal Academy of Higher Education, this milestone represents far more than the conferring of degrees. The success of MTMC's first graduating batch is not measured only in medals, ranks, or degrees. It is reflected in the confidence of its graduates, the trust of their families, the dedication of faculty who helped shape them, and the collective belief that a new institution could create something extraordinary.

The first batch will always hold a special place in MTMC's history. They arrived with faith in a vision. They leave having fulfilled that vision—and strengthened it for those who will follow.

Sometimes, the most remarkable journeys are the ones we build together, guided by purpose, strengthened by partnership, and .

We are delighted to share the first official message from the Vice Chancellor of Manipal Academy of Higher Education.

As we embark on a new journey, we look forward to advancing our shared vision of academic excellence, innovation, research, and global impact under his esteemed leadership.

Join us in welcoming our new Vice Chancellor and stay tuned for more updates and inspiring insights ahead.

Thirty-eight years ago, I walked into my first operating theatre with no guarantee of what the next hour would bring. You learn quickly that certainty is a luxury. What you cultivate instead is judgment — and the courage to act on it. I carry that with me now, as I step into the role of Vice Chancellor at Manipal Academy of Higher Education, over a week ago.

There is something humbling about leading an institution you once studied in. I sat in these classrooms. Grew here — Grew here — as a clinician, then as a teacher, and later as Dean of Kasturba Medical College, Manipal. This place is woven into me in ways no appointment letter could capture. I am not here to reinvent. I am here to listen, build on what is strong, and move with purpose toward what MAHE is still capable of becoming. But I do come with convictions. Here are three I will not set aside

𝐎𝐧𝐞: We are past the era of slow, comfortable growth. The disciplines that will define the next decade — at the intersection of health sciences, engineering, and the humanities — don't wait for institutions to catch up. We either lead, or we follow. At MAHE, I intend to lead.

𝐓𝐰𝐨: A university is only as alive as its students. Not their grades. Them. Their restlessness, their ambitions, the small crises that nobody talks about and the big ideas that never get a room. We will build spaces — physical and otherwise — where all of that has somewhere to go.

𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞: Faculty are not staff. They are the intellectual spine of everything we do. My job is to get out of their way, and to make sure the conditions are right for them to do the work only they can do.

As a surgeon, I was taught that a steady hand and a clear eye are not opposites of speed — they are the conditions for it. That's the kind of leadership I want to bring here.

MAHE has earned its place. Now let's do something worthy of it. I'm glad to be here.

And above all, true to the philosophy that has always defined us:
𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐋𝐢𝐟𝐞.

#𝐌𝐲𝐌𝐀𝐇𝐄 #𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐛𝐲𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞

Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE) warmly welcomes Dr Sharath K Rao as the 8th Vice Chancellor.

As he takes on this significant leadership role, we look forward to a new chapter of growth, innovation, research, and continued excellence under his guidance.

We wish him great success in leading MAHE towards greater heights.

Each milestone we achieve is rooted in a vision that laid the foundation for our journey.

On the 128th birth anniversary of Dr. T. M. A. Pai, we pay tribute to a legacy that continues to influence and inspire generations.

This occasion offers an opportunity to reflect with deep respect on the contributions of a visionary who transformed access to quality education and established institutions of enduring impact. His unwavering commitment to progress, community development, and service created a strong and lasting foundation that continues to guide us today.

As we commemorate his remarkable life and achievements, we reaffirm our commitment to the core values he championed—excellence, inclusivity, and purpose-driven growth.

His vision continues to resonate through every learner, every accomplishment, and every step we take toward a more progressive and equitable future.
