Selvam Arts & Science College, Namakkal(Selvam Educational Institutions)

Selvamm Arts and Science College was established by the pioneer in poultry industry and a philanthropist, Dr.P.Selvaraj in 2000, under the auspices of V.Ponnusamy Educational and Charitable Trust, which was formed in the fond memory of his late father. The college is fully self-supporting and it has been founded to serve the youth of the predominantly agricultural, underprivileged and downtrodden families in the neighbourhood. Started with 3 courses, 7 faculty members and an initial intake of 77 students in a temporary building on the Trichy Road, the college was shifted to the present sprawling Selvam Campus the next year, 2001.
