Meenakshi Academy of Higher Education and Research (MAHER) is dedicated to the pursuit of excellence in research and strives to build a research conducive culture, as a part of its educational excellence model, for the development and promotion of scientific temper and research aptitudes among its faculty members, students, and research scholars.
