Dr. Sunil Karad
Executive Director and Trustee
Education holds the key to a progressive world, along with being a crucial tool for solving some of the most complex issues. It hones the developmental potential of our youth, and eventually shapes the future of humanity. Being associated with a variety of knowledge streams across Technology, Science, Social Science, Humanities, Health Science, Design and School Education verticals, I firmly believe that learning is far beyond facts and figures. Ideally, education should foster curiosity and analysis. It should be beyond ensuring literacy and inculcate realization of own’s potential.
With a liberal approach, we can imbibe a sense of social responsibility, and instill intellectual and practical dexterity in the citizens of tomorrow. It is upon us to guide these young minds to succeed in the realm full of opportunities.

Mr. Mandar Gurjar
MYP Coordinator
“ Education is the manifestation of the perfection already in man.” – Swami Vivekananda
As rightly told by a great visionary Swami Vivekananda education is to build the character, strength of a body and brain so that one can stand on one’s own feet. He firmly believe in this philosophy. Being the IB practioner for last 15 years as TOK examiner, Physics, Design technology facilitator he have seen a paradigm shift in the field of education. This paradigm shift is in terms of skills required by the students and even teachers in this fast changing and technology driven world. With this change the role of the facilitator has become even more important – teaching students skills and values.
IB MYP programme helps students to grow holistically. IB believes that education is for a better world. At MIT VGS we strive to develop students who will build a better world through intercultural understanding and respect, alongside a healthy appetite for learning and excellence while retaining Indian values and culture.
