The JSS Academy of Higher Education and Research, Mauritius has, with the support of JSS Mahavidyapeetha (JSSMVP), Mysuru and of the mentorship of JSS Academy of Higher Education & Research (JSS AHER), Mysuru, established a post-secondary educational institution as a separate entity from the parent institution (JSS AHER, Mysuru), with degree awarding powers at the start of activities in Mauritius, in line with the published Tertiary Education Commission (TEC) guidelines. Following an application for clearance of the name to TEC, the “JSS Academy of Higher Education and Research (Mauritius) (JSS AHER, Mauritius)” was established in August 2018 to be the local institution.
The intention of establishing JSS AHER, Mauritius is motivated by the legacy and sustaining principles of the founding fathers of the Sri Suttur Math and the JSSMPV with a view to provide post-secondary education and training to enhance the quality of life for the benefit of society, with special emphasis in Mauritius and the African region.
