Principal’s Desk

We welcome the second batch of students for the 4-Year Hons/Hons with Research programme and the 3-Year Multidisciplinary programme to Gurudas College. As the University of Calcutta rolls out the new framework of teaching-learning following the National Education Policy, of 2020, much has changed in the existing structure of coursework. One particularly exciting addition has been that of the internship programme, which incorporates hands-on training alongside classroom teaching-learning. Many of our students have participated in summer internships this semester, in a wide variety of places. All of them have returned with exciting ideas about hands-on work as well as a clearer understanding of the employment market and their employment opportunities.

In the upcoming years, we will continue to emphasise the importance of skill development, capacity building, and a holistic approach to learning. I strongly encourage our students to take advantage of the multiple workshops the college organises for students in different arenas and sign up for add-on courses that attract their interests. The college has also been organising regular mental health counselling sessions and I encourage our students to take advantage of the same.

All incoming students should inform themselves of the college’s anti-ragging policies and anti-sexual harassment policies, which include the law of the land. The institution has a zero-tolerance policy towards the same.
