Rev. Dr. C. Joe Arun, SJ
Director, LIBA

LIBA is a Jesuit Business school. It is driven by Ignatian values of Magis (Excellence), Cura Personalis (Care of the individual), and Ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam (For the Greater Glory of God). We form leaders who excel in the fields they choose to lead. That excellence is guided by values and ethics.

The ways we teach and the ways our students learn, we make every effort, are relevant, innovative and dynamic. The approach we take is that every learning is formation of character that leads to building competencies.

Capacity to discern to become aware of inner motivations and movements while they make decisions and skill to collaborate and network with others to excel with ethics in what they do.

Wish you every best,
Rev. Dr. C. Joe Arun, SJ
