Upon successful completion of all three years of the course, students are presented a Bachelors Degree from the Kingston University London. |

SVKM is in the educational sector for more than 70 years and knows that if students are to develop as global citizens, it is imperative to offer them education that is international while still keeping them connected to their roots. |

In today's corporate world, companies hire employees who are able to combine an understanding of the local business and economic environment with knowledge of an international working environment. |

Therefore, these Bachelors Degrees are part of the SVKM vision to provide students with exposure to a blend of local education and international orientation. |
