President

It is with great sense of joy and pride that I extend my hearty welcome to our institutions and website of Laxmi Memorial Education Trust, Mangaluru. I take immense pleasure in welcoming you to the website of Laxmi Memorial Education Trust®. I value the bondage that we have built up with the corporate world through academic and placement associations, which are focused towards the synergy between Industry and Academy. The world is more dynamic than ever before. There is a sudden opening of the world economy to markets in both developed and developing countries and availability of technologies. As a result, current consumer preferences, product life cycles, employment concepts have undergone tremendous changes, because of which the challenges that the corporate world faces today are multi-dimensional.

While on the one hand there is a need to augment resources – both technological and human, to face the competition all over the world, on the other there is also a need to reduce increasing costs. ‘The best quality at the least cost’ seems to be the motto of the present day economic development. From the human resources stand point, this necessitates the emergence of young and effective managerial talent with an exposure to strategic specialization. Our efforts in training the students match the current demands of the corporate sector. The admission procedures in our institutions are stringent. We take pride in being a part of shaping up the careers of the students. The mission that motivate us is: ‘BETTER EDUCATION FOR BETTER PROFESSIONALS’ Therefore we deem our efforts completely rewarded when our students secure promising career opportunities in reputed organisations.
