The Amrita School of Arts & Sciences at Amritapuri Campus took its birth from Chancellor Amma's educational vision. Amma's suggestion was to prepare a generation that could successfully meet the rigorous demands of the Information Age and at the same time, be imbued with the noble ideals of selfless service and love.Amma's vision continues to shape the mission and the vision of the School.
