SVB’s college of Pharmacy completed 25 glorious years of excellence and service in the field of pharma education under the able stewardship and guidance of Founder President Dr. R. Varadarajan. To give a befitting conclusion to this 25-year celebration SVB’s college of Pharmacy organised A GRAND ALUMNI MEET on 25th May 2019.
An initiative and step towards building a great institute are to foster a spirit of loyalty and strengthen the ties between alumni and the institute. The SVBCP alumni association was established in the year 2012 with contacts of very few students. To take this association to greater heights, with the help of technology, the alumni committee sent an invitation for the grand alumni meet to all the past students through various routes of technology- email, Facebook & Whatsapp.

SVB Pharmacy College gives utmost attention to the overall development of the personality of students.
Students are encouraged to participate in co-curricular activities. While ensuring academic and co-curricular facilities to
a vibrant student community, the college is conscious of its role as a constructive and responsible component of the larger society.
