In Kanyakumari District, there is a great demand for teaching faculty members in English and Mathematics, since the district has a mushroom growth of CBSE, ICSE and Matriculation Schools. Therefore the undergraduate students of this district like to join PG courses, particularly in English Literature and Mathematics.
There are about 30 Colleges providing higher education (both aided
and self-financed) to the pupil of Kanyakumari District. Out of 39,100
students pursuing Under Graduate courses in different colleges in
Kanyakumari District, only 7,110 (18.2%) are opting for Post Graduate
level courses due to low-level access to higher education. Keeping in
view of promoting higher education in the district, the Post Graduate
Extension Centre certainly is paving a way for higher education not only
in quality but also in the quantity which is essential today for
economic development based on the recommendations given by the National
Knowledge Commission.

(Ms) No.76, Higher Education (H2) Department, dated 25.05.2012, the Government of Tamil Nadu granted permission to establish the Post Graduate Extension Centre of Manonmaniam Sundaranar University in Kanyakumari District.
