CARE has started attracting extramural funding from Government agencies like DST, DST

areas.

The university publishes Chettinad Health City Medical Journal, a quarterly, indexed and peer-

with laptops/ tablets and has Chettinad Learning Management System (LMS), a Networked
Learning Environment (NLE), in which students can view instructional content, collaborate with
educators, view their academic performance and access learning resources anytime from
anywhere.

Commitment to society by CARE is well exemplified by the health promotion extension
activities in the adoptedvillages. CARE also collaborates with the government and NGOs in all
health initiatives in these villages.

Holistic development of students is ensured by participation in sports, games, and cultural
activities. To facilitate this, an indoor stadium, swimming pool, football and cricket grounds,

compared to that of a conventional Fuel Operated or a Hybrid Car. Electric cars put a curb on
noise pollution as they are much quieter. Electric motors are capable of providing smooth drive
with higher acceleration over longer distances. Increased transportation efficiency is the best
place to start efforts to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), which is the primary cause
of global warming.
