Madurai Kamaraj University

     Madurai Kamaraj University, established in 1966, has 18 Schools comprising 73 Departments. The Directorate of Distance Education of the University has a student strength of about 1.30 lakhs. The University has 109 affiliated Colleges (9 Autonomous) including other approved institutions and 7 evening colleges.

     Madurai Kamaraj University, (originally known as Madurai University) was named after the historical city of Madurai. It was inaugurated on 6th February 1966 at the heart of the city. Its nucleus was the Extension centre of the University of Madras located at Madurai.

     Two years later, the foundation stone for a new campus was laid by Dr.Zakir Hussain, the then President of India on Madurai - Theni road, 13 kilometers to the west of the city. Since then the campus has grown into a beautiful University township with an extensive area of about 750 acres, appropriately called in Tamil "Palkalainagar". And in 1978, the name of the University was changed to Madurai Kamaraj University to honour our beloved 'King Maker' and Former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister K. Kamaraj.

     The motto of the University is "To seek truth is knowledge" and this has been taken from Tirukkural. Study Centres/ Information Centres are located at Madurai, Chennai, Trichy, Theni, Ramnad, Tirunelveli and Nagercoil. There are also Study Centres in other states.
