He was known to combine professional integrity with a high degree of social commitment. Dr. M R Shetty himself has been closely associated with the academic bodies of Mangalore and Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences, since their inception and has been a member of the executive board of the Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI).
Dr.M.R. Shetty and the Board of Trustees had a clear purpose, vision and philosophy in relation to vocation-based degree courses. Dr. Shetty identified the lack of higher-level degree courses in Allied Health and other vocation-based educational sectors. This drove him to establish high quality institutions providing holistic education in the green and healthy environs of Kavoor in the northern part of the port city of Mangalore. Mangalore itself has become an educational hub, served well by air, sea and road transportation with a strong cultural base and an enlightened citizenry.
