The group includes a school, three pre-university colleges, four undergraduate colleges including two evening colleges and a postgraduate college. With four campuses in Bangalore, SEI provides a dynamic and inclusive environment for students.
Since its inception in 1995 under the GDA Foundation, SEI has consistently strived to bridge the gap between aspirations and opportunities. With a focus on inclusivity, the institution provides an empowering learning space that fosters academic excellence, character development, and essential life skills.
SEI is driven by a student-centric philosophy, emphasizing innovation, critical thinking, and ethical leadership. Through collaboration with parents, educators, and other stakeholders, the institution ensures a robust support system for its students, enabling them to achieve their fullest potential
The GDA Foundation, established in 1994, stands as a beacon of hope in Bangalore and a testament to the power of education and holistic development. Driven by its mission to empower individuals and communities, the foundation has played a pivotal role in providing access to quality education, healthcare, and social welfare initiatives.
The Surana Educational Institutions exemplify the belief that the greatest gift one can offer is the ability to help others lead better lives. This philosophy aligns with Dr. G.C. Surana’s profound conviction in the transformative power of education, encapsulated in the guiding principle, ‘Vidyadhanam Sarvadhanapradhaanam’ (Knowledge is the greatest wealth). His vision was to bridge the gap between opportunity and access, creating an inclusive space where students from diverse backgrounds could realize their potential and thrive. Dr. Dilip Surana has carried this legacy forward with unwavering dedication. By injecting the institutions with resources to match the best in the country, he has elevated their standing while ensuring quality education remains affordable and accessible. His stewardship underscores the commitment to fostering academic excellence and inclusivity, empowering individuals from all walks of life.
Dr. Archana Surana has further strengthened this legacy by addressing contemporary educational challenges with a relentless focus on quality. Her leadership has steered the institutions to achieve notable accreditations and certifications, reflecting a superior standard of education. With over 45,000 individuals empowered under her guidance, her forward-thinking approach has ensured that the institutions remain relevant in an evolving world while staying true to their core values of innovation, inclusivity, and holistic development. Together, the Surana family has shaped a legacy of academic excellence and societal impact. Their shared commitment to empowering individuals through knowledge has positioned Surana Educational Institutions as a leader in the educational landscape, inspiring generations to unlock their potential and contribute meaningfully to society.
