"CITIZEN'S CHARTER AND GUIDELINES TO PUBLIC"

GENESIS

The Annamalai University owes its existence to the vision, wisdom, benefaction and philanthropy of Dr. Rajah Sri Annamalai Chettiar. As early as 1920, he founded the Sri Minakshi College at the temple town of Chidambaram. In 1928, the Annamalai University Act was passed and Sri Minakshi College formed the nucleus of this unitary and residential University. With its rural setting and progressive outlook, the seat of this seminary of higher education came to be called Annamalai nagar after its illustrious Founder.

Dr. Rajah Sir Annamalai Chettiar donated a fabulous sum of Rs.20 lakhs and 300 acres of land besides the buildings, hostels, library and playgrounds of Sri Minakshi College, thus paving the way for establishing, the University in 1929 and the Founder was gratefully honoured with the Pro-Chancellorship of the University. During his tenure of Pro-Chancellorship for a long period of two decades, he took great care of the University and paid devoted attention to its growth and development. Whoever was found an expert in a particular academic field was approached by the Founder and was brought to the University to head the various departments of study.

The Founder’s eldest son, Dr. Rajah Sri Muthiah Chettiar adorned the Pro-Chancellor ship in 1948 after his father’s death. A multi-faceted personality of rare caliber, he strove with sustained vigour and zeal to lead the University into "fresh fields and pastures new." He gave new dimensions and direction to the functioning of the University. He evinced keen interest in broadening and direction to the functioning of the University.

The Distance Education wing of the University, his brain-child was established in 1979 and it renders yeoman service in the field of continuing education, y taking higher education to the doors of the needy.

CONSOLIDATION AND EXPANSION

Dr. M.A.M. Ramaswamy succeeded his father as Founder Pro-Chancellor of the University in 1984.

Under his able administration the University has grown rapidly and widely. Now it has 52 departments of study with more than 860 teaching staff and 1960 administrative staff.
