Dr. T.R. PACHAMUTHU
CHANCELLOR
SRM University
Having lost his father at a very early age, young Pachamuthu was brought up by his mother Tmt. Valliammai with courage and determination.
The financial constraints did not deter young Pachamuthu in rising to eminence in his village, Thandavarayapuram (Salem Dist.). He had his schooling in Salem Athur, and proceeded to do his University Graduation (B.Sc.) in Trichy. He fulfilled his ambition to qualify as an engineer by completing A.M.I.E. “Learn while you earn” gave him a great sense of dignity and strength.
He started his career as a teacher in a corporation school in Chennai, at the same time pursuing his education in the evening. Simultaneously he was also working in a private Tutorial College.
In 1967 he started “Tamil Nadu Tutorials” with the help of his co-teachers. During this period he was appointed as a Lecturer in Chengalvarayan Polytechnic. He took up this assignment in addition to his commitment in the Tutorials.
In 1969 he established Nightingale Nursery School with an initial strength of 25 students. Now the school has grown up as Matriculation Higher Secondary School with more than three thousand students. The school has two branches in Chennai.
Asian Institute of Engineering Technology was started in 1976. Students from all over India were attracted towards this Institute. His thirst for the service in the cause of education made him to take a decision to resign the post of Lecturer.
This became a turning point in his career. He planned and started several educational institutions.
