Chennai, Tamil Nadu Mar 19, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - Dr MGR Janaki College of Arts and Science for Women was founded in the loving memory of the late Chief Minister Bharat Ratna Dr MGR and his beloved wife Mrs Janaki Ramachandran, who championed the cause of women's education, believing in true empowerment of women can be obtained only through education and economic independence.
In the spirit of this, Dr Latha Rajendran (Secretary) and Dr Kumar Rajendran (Chairperson) of MJC partnered with MIT Square London to establish the RAISE Centre of Excellence, where the focus is on Research, Applications, Innovation, Science & Technology, and Entrepreneurship, which aims to promote international collaboration for women.

As part of the CoE, numerous initiatives have been rolled out. Several talks and webinars were organised to benefit women students.

Recently, MIT Square organised Indo-Global Summer Internship 2022 for MJC Psychology students, where Kamala M and Olive Sabina received an opportunity from Centro Universitario UNIFACVEST, Brazil; Pavithra K and Lascana R from Universiti Putra Malaysia; Kiruthika and Nandhini V from Veritas University, Nigeria.
MJC Campus Radio, powered by MIT Square, was launched for women students to exhibit their talents; several episodes have been featured on Amazon Music, Google Podcasts, and Spotify.
As part of the CSR activities, events such as the Women Power India Awards, Women Short Film Festival, and Fem Products Mela were organised in 2022 to empower women.
