CVV Campus

Chinmaya Vishwa Vidyapeeth operates from two distinct campuses: the Chinmaya Eswar Gurukula campus in Kochi, Kerala, and the Chinmaya Naada Bindu Gurukula campus in Kolwan, near Pune.

Chinmaya Eswar Gurukula Campus

The main campus is located at the Chinmaya Eswar Gurukula (CEG) in Kochi, Kerala. Situated in a sprawling ten-acre compound amidst lush greenery, temple shrines, and serene lily ponds, the CEG campus provides an inspiring and vibrant environment that encourages students to strive for excellence. It also offers a tranquil setting that attracts individuals from all over the world in search of peace and solitude. Additionally, the CEG campus houses the state-of-the-art educational facility called ‘Prajna Pratishthanam’ located on Warriam Road in the heart of Kochi city.

Life at CVV

At Chinmaya Vishwa Vidyapeeth, it is not only the rich curriculum that shapes students into successful individuals, but also the overall atmosphere that fosters personal growth and self-discovery. Both campuses of CVV provide a nurturing environment that allows students to unfold their inner potential and thrive academically, spiritually, and emotionally.

Chinmaya Eswar Gurukula Campus

 

Situated in the enchanting landscapes of Kerala, the Chinmaya Eswar Gurukula (CEG) campus holds a special place as it is housed in the sacred maternal birth home of Sri Adi Sankaracharya. It provides a tranquil and secure atmosphere that students easily embrace as their home away from home.

The academic block, known as Sankaram, blends traditional Kerala architecture with modern technology to create spacious and well-ventilated classrooms. Equipped with digital amenities and Wi-Fi access, these classrooms facilitate seamless interaction and learning among students and faculty. The ten-acre campus is adorned with lush greenery and open spaces, where classes and group discussions often take place, including the peaceful corners of the ancient Illom.

The Chinmaya student community consists of both hostel residents and day scholars, with transportation services available for those commuting from Kochi to the current campus in Veliyanad, Ernakulam.

Location & Accessibility

The CEG campus is conveniently located 47 km away from Kochi International Airport and 28 km from Ernakulam South Railway station. Public buses, taxis, and auto-rickshaws provide transportation options for students traveling to Ernakulam. The campus enjoys good connectivity to major cities like Mumbai, Goa, Bengaluru, Chennai, and others, with several trains stopping at the nearby Piravom Road Railway station, which is only 5 km away from the campus.

Chinmaya Naada Bindu Gurukula Campus

Nestled within the sprawling 70-acre premises of Chinmaya Vibhooti, the vision center of Chinmaya Mission, the Chinmaya Naada Bindu Gurukula (CNBG) campus offers a serene setting for students, performers, artists, and scholars from around the world. Located in the serene village of Kolwan, near Pune, at the foothills of the majestic Sahyadri mountain range, this campus provides an ideal environment for creative pursuits and academic endeavors.

CLASSROOMS AND LABORATORIES

The campuses are equipped with modern infrastructure, featuring spacious classrooms equipped with audio-visual facilities. The CNBG campus boasts mini-theatres, a professional dance studio, and a large auditorium.

LIBRARY

At CEG, the Ubhaya Bharati library serves as a prominent cultural information and knowledge hub, supporting research in Sanskrit, Indology, and various contemporary knowledge fields. At CNBG, the Sruthi library is a treasure trove of historically and culturally significant collections related to Indian performing arts. The libraries employ the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) system and utilize the KOHA software, enabling a web-enabled online OPAC (Online Public Access Catalog) with barcoded entries for the entire collection.

HOSTEL & AMENITIES

For students who opt for the hostel facility, secure shared accommodations are provided in separate hostels for males and females. Students also have access to amenities such as Wi-Fi connectivity and laundry facilities.

ANNAKSHETRA

With students and faculty members coming from diverse regions of India, catering to everyone’s culinary preferences can be a challenge. However, the kitchen team successfully meets this challenge by serving delicious and nutritious vegetarian meals three times a day.

FITNESS AND WELL-BEING

In addition to a wholesome diet, students are encouraged to maintain a regular exercise routine and engage in both indoor and outdoor sports under the guidance of an on-campus coach. The curriculum also includes yoga and meditation sessions, aiming to foster a balanced way of life.
