Taking Sri Lanka’s education sphere to greater heights, the National Institute of Business Management (NSBM) Green University Town, the first of its kind in South Asia, was opened last week.
Vice Chancellor of NSBM, Dr. E. A. Weerasinghe said, “Having realized that a proper higher education is a right and a privilege, we were driven to address a national issue of the country being unable to accommodate all the students who qualify for higher education.”
“The NSBM Green University Town was initiated with the sole objective of providing a worldly-exposure to the university experience as we believe that we will have a greater return in investing in a child’s education,” he said.
“It is very important to note that all activities of the NSBM Green University Town have been designed to be conducted in an environmental friendly manner and we have included Green initiatives for sustainability in the syllabus and curriculum,” Dr. Weerasinghe said.
The University will also host a number of foreign students.
