Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda Educational and Research Institute was established with the idea of actualizingSwami Vivekananda's vision of education.[4] It was declared as a de novo Deemed University by the Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India in 2005. With its headquarters at Belur, RKMVERI began functioning in July 2005 with one branch in the Specialized Faculty Centre at Coimbatore in the field of ‘Disability Management and Special Education’. In the following year, three new branches were added at Narendrapur, Ranchi and Kolkata (at Simla – the ancestral residence of Swami Vivekananda, currently operating under the Belur main campus).[5]
Since then, two new schools have been established in the main campus, namely the School of Mathematical Sciences (focusing on mathematics, theoretical physics and theoretical computer science), and the School of Indian Heritage (including Sanskrit studies, ancient Indian heritage andVedanta, especially theUpanishads and theBhagavad Gita).
In 2019, the institute was accredited by theNational Assessment and Accreditation Council with a grade of A++.[6]
