St.Joseph’s Academy of Higher Education and Research, which started functioning in 2007 in the backward district of Kerala, has been a noble venture of the Kottayam Province of the CMI congregation in the field of higher education. As the institution is passing through the final decade of its golden jubilee, it can be said with full assurance that it has remained faithful to its vision of contributing to the nation a generation of responsible citizens with an inclusive mind who are tolerant and proud of the rich and pluralistic cultural ethos of the land.
