Leadership

Whenever a question on education is raised, the following quote always comes to my mind: “The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows.” The first college of Al-Azhar opened in 2002 with a mission to empower the youth of India through education. I believed that the development of the nation would happen by itself if we can foster the youngsters. Through the years, Al-Azhar has structured an effective and holistic education system that prepares the students to be an effective and efficient workforce and make the best use of the opportunities that the industry sends their way. The best example for this are the students of Dental College itself. State-of-the-art facilities, a education oriented campus, research opportunities etc ensure that our students graduate at the top of their game. Their learning has expanded and they are prepared to make a difference. The vibrancy of our campus makes it an ideal environment for students to grow mentally and intellectually. It’s a proud moment for me, as the founder of Al – Azhar, to see our students excelling in their careers and life in various corners of the world.

Amidst the scenic location of Idukki, Kerala, Al-Azhar is creating a revolution in the Education Sector through 12 academic institutions and over 7,000 students. By establishing the first International School in Doha, Qatar; Al-Azhar has made its presence known among the international community. Through the various Educational Institutions, we have been successfully striving forward in our mission to provide excellent & affordable education opportunities to a diverse student population.

When we began the journey, it was our mission to bring the light of Education to the bright spirited youth of Thodupuzha. Through education, we believed that development can be achieved easily. Today, with thousands of students from all over India, studying in our institutions, I am immensely pleased to say that we have achieved that and more.

With the help of experienced faculty and hardworking students, Al-Azhar is in the frontline creating exceptional leaders for tomorrow. The students who graduated from the various institutions have become successful professionals steeped in Indian values and modern outlook.

We have had the opportunity to be involved with the community at the deepest level. I feel a great sense of pride and satisfaction that over the many years, our family has had a role in impacting positively, the lives of people near and far, and in many ways.

“The mere imparting of information is not education” – Carter G Woodson

At Al-Azhar Dental College, we sincerely believe that just by imparting knowledge to the students, education is not complete. In today’s competitive world, grooming the students through a holistic approach, right from their beginning as a fresher, through various personality development programmes along with providing the best academic and clinical knowledge is what the mentors should do. We have all the state of the art facilities, infrastructure and competent teachers, under the guidance of a visionary management, to provide a perfect balance of academic, sports, artistic and social opportunities.

We at AADC, constantly strive to ensure our students’ wellbeing and emotional growth along with intellectual excellence, so as to develop them into responsible and esteemed dental surgeons, who are competent enough in the most challenging environments that they may have to face in the future.

Our dedicated teaching staff at AADC leaves no stone unturned to churn out responsible young citizens, who are inculcated with all the required humanitarian values, through value based quality and integral education, so that they may empower others and be exceptional ambassadors of their profession to create a better society for tomorrow.

Welcome to one of the world’s top five professions! I am delighted to welcome you to Al Azhar Dental College and congratulate you on your decision to choose this wonderful realm of healing and education. With significant advancements, dentistry has evolved into a fast developing and expanding profession that provides dental practitioners with a multitude of opportunities, challenges, and rewards.

There has been a shift in the general public’s attitude toward oral health and dental problems over time, resulting in a rise in demand for dentists and specialists. Our profession has grown and gone a long way, from rudimentary techniques of extracting teeth owing to disease to the booming field of restorative and cosmetic dentistry. The incorporation of cutting-edge technology and imaging systems into the specialty’s future appears positive, allowing for improved diagnosis and treatment delivery, making dentistry even more gratifying and fascinating than it is now.

Al-Azhar Dental College has built exceptional teaching and learning materials and sophisticated on-campus amenities structured to assist student care and cultivate talent in a creative and inventive atmosphere, thanks to its state-of-the-art infrastructure. The institution has a huge indoor sports complex, gym, soccer ground outdoor recreation space, and an art club to promote sports and extracurricular activities while also helping students relax. We train and prepare our students at each stage of their dental education so that, at the end of the programme, they mature into responsible professionals willing to serve society, just as a caterpillar goes through several stages of development to emerge as a beautiful butterfly.

A student’s Dentistry experience is more than just the courses they pursue. It’s also about the relationships you build and the people you meet. To expand your experience and become a well-rounded graduate, I encourage all students to meet people, establish new friends, and actively participate in all activities. Please do not hesitate to contact the concerned officials at any time if you require assistance or direction. I wish you a pleasant and unforgettable experience at Al-Azhar, and I hope you find your place there!
