Dr. Mohan Gaikwad, with more than twenty years of experience in education system to his credit, established the Gaikwad- Patil Group of Institutions in Nagpur to cater to the quality education needs of the youth in Vidarbha. His early experience of teaching in an engineering college made him acutely aware of the dissonance between engineering education in the country and the requirements of the industry. He therefore began with a dream of starting an engineering college that equips students with knowledge, skills and attitudes relevant to the industry. That dream has manifested today in the form of two engineering colleges, well known in the region for their constant striving to impart quality and industry-relevant education to their students. Hardly in his early forties, Dr. Gaikwad is the young and dynamic face of the Group. His contagious enthusiasm and unflagging drive is truly inspiring.

We envision a time when youth from different regions are engaged in all sectors of technology and management where issues affecting young people are debated and decisions making. We create a network of youth empowered with skills and knowledge, to be able to contribute to healthy economy and growth of the society and nation. We are molding young minds to be active in global events where their opinions can be listened to and respected. We are committed to create a vibrant and stimulating environment to live and learn.

With first class post graduate degrees in English Literature, Mass Communication and Sociology, plus M. Phil. in English Literature and now a Ph. D. in English, Dr. Anjali Patil-Gaikwad is an academician of repute. In addition to regular participation and paper presentation in national and international seminars, she has also been organizing international seminars on teaching and learning of English as a Second Language every year. Formerly associated with the Indian Liberal Group, she was the Secretary General of Liberal Youth South Asia, and has extensively toured various countries such as U. S., Germany, Belgium, Nepal, Sri Lanka, UAE, Mauritius, Thailand etc. She was also elected to the Senate of RTM Nagpur University.

Gaikwad-Patil Group of Institutions (GPGI) is one of the best educational Institutions in centre India. To serve these institutions as Treasurer is a nice experience for me. Started in the year 2007, the institutions has made tremendous progress in diversified fields, thanks to the contributions from philanthropists, technology experts, research centers, dedicated staff and the continuous support of the Board members.

The essence of the life is to live a life for others and die for a noble cause. We, at GPGI, express our gratitude for receiving an opportunity to serve the nation. We have a crystal clear vision of enlightening the student brain with sound and technology-rich academic curriculum. We pledge to ensure that the freshers of GPGI will not only progress in their respective fields but will also become the responsible citizen by abiding to the rules and will live a disciplined life.

Our institutions have state of the art facilities for teaching, research and development. The freshers who have passed out of our college have already proved their mettle in various fields. I request all the students, staff members to enjoy your stay in the campus, contribute positively for the welfare of the institutions by moving towards excellence in your chosen field. I personally appeal to all the students to make use of the facilities here and improve their skills so that you will have a glorious career ahead.

I strongly believe in team work, only a good TEAM can bring out excellent results. By TEAM, I mean Together Empowering to Achieve More - so work as a team with good coordination to move towards excellence.
