About Christ University, Bengaluru
CHRIST (Deemed to be University) is a private university in Bengaluru, Karnataka, established in 1969 as Christ College by the Carmelites of Mary Immaculate (CMI), a Catholic religious congregation whose roots trace to St. Kuriakose Elias Chavara. The University Grants Commission (UGC) conferred Autonomy on the college in 2004 and recognised it as an 'Institution with Potential for Excellence' in 2006. On 22 July 2008, the Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India, declared it a Deemed-to-be University under Section 3 of the UGC Act, 1956, in the name Christ University. It holds NAAC 'A+' Grade accreditation. Per the official homepage, the university runs over 250 UG, PG and Doctoral programmes (92 undergraduate, 77 postgraduate, 36 doctoral, plus 9 online degree programmes) across ten schools: School of Architecture, School of Business and Management, School of Commerce Finance and Accountancy, School of Education, School of Engineering and Technology, School of Humanities and Performing Arts, School of Law, School of Psychological Sciences Education and Social Work, School of Sciences, and School of Social Sciences. It reports over 38,000 students enrolled, students from 38+ countries, 40+ academic departments, and a stated 95% placement rate. The university operates across six campuses: Bangalore Central Campus (the original campus, on Hosur Road), Bangalore Bannerghatta Road Campus, Bangalore Kengeri Campus, Bangalore Yeshwanthpur Campus, Delhi NCR Campus, and Pune Lavasa Campus. Admission to undergraduate and postgraduate programmes is generally through the university's own selection process — an entrance test/academic record evaluation, followed by a Written Test, Group Discussion, or Personal Interview, per the official 'How to Apply' steps on the admissions page. IMPORTANT DATA CAVEATS: CHRIST's individual programme pages (which would show precise, per-programme fee tables and seat/intake numbers) load their data via JavaScript that could not be captured through automated fetching. The fee figures in this profile instead come from a summary document the user supplied ('Fee Structure & Cost of Living Overview, 2026') giving broad per-stream ranges rather than exact per-programme figures. That document contains no seat/intake numbers at all, and its 'Total Programme Fee' column does not consistently reconcile with (per-annum fee x duration) across several rows — flagged individually in each course's fee note below. These figures should be treated as rough, approximate ranges rather than a verified official fee schedule, and cross-checked against CHRIST's official Fee Structure PDF/admissions portal before being relied on for a real admission decision.
