Co-curricular

All students at UWC complete a co-curricular programme called Creativity, Activity and Service (CAS) – an integral part of the IB qualification. Students get the opportunity to choose a physical, a creative and a social service activity. Our Triveni (CAS) programme is extensive and a crucial part of a MUWCI education, with particular focus on community engagement and outdoor education. We also have a rich variety of inclusive campus events, celebrating the diversity of our students and the local culture and festivals.

The CAS activities on offer change each year as they are student-led and faculty mentored. Typically we offer 30+ creative and physical activities and 25+ on and off-campus service learning opportunities. A sampling of what’s on offer is below:

Physical activities

Located on a beautiful hilltop in rural Maharashtra, MUWCI has a sprawling 180-acre built-to-purpose campus with a biodiversity reserve within the Sahyadri mountain ranges – a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Residential accommodation:

MUWCI is divided into five ‘wadas’ (residential clusters). Students live with relative independence and responsibility in houses of eight arranged around a shared courtyard. Each room houses four students from different continents. So-called “wada parents” and other faculty are part of the wada community, living with their families and pets in adjacent homes. Residential buildings include common rooms with kitchens and separate laundry facilities.

• Centro médico com 16 camas, composto por um médico residente de serviço e enfermeiros a tempo inteiro
