About IAGI – IAGI Indian Academy Group of Institutions

When purpose drives you,
you’re always on the right path.

The Indian Academy Group of Institutions offer spaces that bring together academic rigour and independent thinking. Students are encouraged to carve their own path, driven by the spirit of self-reliance. Here, every student is given the freedom and support to explore, experiment, and grow into all that they aspire to be.

Our campuses foster this journey with dedicated faculty, dynamic research centres, vibrant student-led clubs, and an environment that empowers each individual to thrive.

Our Founder

Dr. T. Somasekhar, Founder of IAGI, holds a Ph.D. in Zoology from Bangalore University and brings over 30 years of experience in higher education. His academic journey includes key roles at renowned institutions like the University of Southern California, the University of Illinois (Chicago), and the Ohio State University (USA).

For him, true knowledge is not just about acquiring information but about learning that grows with you. In a world where easy answers abound, he stresses the need for critical thinking and encourages students to question the way things are and to think about the way things could be. His vision is rooted in the belief that a strong foundation built on curiosity and self-growth leads to lasting change, both in individuals and in the world around them.

He also serves as the Chairman of the School of Raya – International School, Bengaluru, where his passion lies in rethinking how education can shape individuals. He believes that discovery, self-reliance, and challenging old systems are key to transforming education, one student at a time.

To shape a diverse community of self-reliant, ambitious, and independent thinkers who are prepared for the real world, individuals who challenge the status quo, embrace discovery, and make a meaningful difference to society.
