Institution Builders
The Founder
SYED TAFAZZUL KARIM
An institution is known not for its building and architectural beauty but because of the grace, dignity, vision and devotion of the people associated with it.
THE LIFE FORCE
S.M.SHAFIQ
"Education is synonymous with having an interface with ons's own personality. Only then one's persona is disclosed to him and he becomes a confidante of his own attitude. Slowly and gradually the objectives of life start appearing upon him and the destination becomes identical.Then a stage comes when he starts looking at the events occuring around him in an inquisitive and interrogative manner and the secrets of causes and reasons start unfolding upon him. At this juncture he feels himself engulfed in the mental degradation, moral degeneration, religious waywardness, socio-cultural disintegration, social injustice, political exploitation and class differences of his times. The observation and analysis of this tormenting situation heightens his feeling of being a slave. Education not only awakens this feeling but also becomes the most influential means to get salvation from the feeling of subjection and servitude.

India is now being recognized as one of the fastest growing economies in the world. The energetic young generation of professionals, academics, administrators and entrepreneurs have greater role to play. This task has two facets- keeping the domestic market vibrant and adopting a global vision to achieve the long term economic growth. We, at Karimia Educational Complex in general and Karim City College in particular, realize our crucial role in the path of this development and growth on route of India attaining the status of a global leader.
Our day to day life is earmarked with competition and the need to excel in areas of expertise to sustain the course of survival. One has to have the positive thoughts about life and a constant urge to upgrade according to the demands of time and prevailing conditions. Our educational institutions particularly Karim City College provides a very disciplined, healthy, competitive and enjoyable environment and aim at bringing out the very best in the students. The modern methodology and contemporary techniques here will help them aspire for higher goals. The multidimensional changes taking place in infrastructural facilities and implementation of a multitude of plans for a better tomorrow is our commitment to the society.
I welcome you all to this website and in our campus with the best of my wishes and I sincerely hope that together we will participate in the process of social change, social justice and nation building. I want all our students to realize the inherent energy and the latent power that we all have as Indians. So let us play to win because when we do that, we stretch ourselves to our maximum using all our potentialities. Let us all work together to cleanse our society from all evils. Let us together treat the ills prevailing in our country. Let us together look for a better tomorrow for one and all. AMEN!

"Those of us who serve this institution today as office bearers, venerated educationists imparting quality education to a generation, and administrative staff, are the blessed few who are privileged to be associated with a legacy that our Founder Father Late Syed Taffazul Karim established in 1961. His exacting standards and pious approach guides us all in making this institution one where we strive to build character and faith, strengthened by knowledge and skills.
Our nation’s rise to be a greater power in Asia coincides with the global centre of gravity shifting eastwards. Our younger generation is destined to play a captain’s role in a globalised world. They need to be armed with the latest technology, highest levels of education and skills that make successful global managers of business conglomerates with a global imprint. They have also to battle the ills that ail our society: root out corruption, eliminate poverty by new models of wealth distribution, strengthen our institutions and values. It is this onerous task that we at this institution are pledged to serve.
To grow, an organisation needs to inter-act with the environment. In a world rapidly changing we need to be abreast with a wide range of issues. This institution needs to continuously refine its thrusts, update its methods and augment its syllabi. This portal provides us with a link, both within the campus and without. The more vibrant it is, the better the destinies we will be able to carve out for those who walk through this institution’s corridors."
