Education is vital for uplifting a nation. This belief led to the founding of Barama College at Barama on February 5, 1971, initiated by a group of individuals dedicated to promoting higher education for rural students. The primary goal of establishing this college is to foster educational development within the community. But providing quality education isn't the sole purpose of this institution; the necessary effort is also made to preserve unity among diversity.
In line with the NEP2020 policy, Bodoland University- to which Barama College is affiliated at present, like other universities, has adopted the FYUGP (Four Year Undergraduate Programme) course structure, allowing for multi-exit and multi-entry options. Consequently, the college has adopted a multidisciplinary or interdisciplinary approach in its subject offerings. The introduction of this new curriculum aims to support the holistic development of the younger generation. Moreover, parental involvement is crucial in the educational journey, especially as education increasingly takes on a global dimension. For students, acquiring education presents challenges, but it ultimately is an ongoing struggle for parents as well. To meet educational demands and provide necessary facilities, the college authorities have made significant efforts.
We must all engage with NEP2020 to enhance our skills and make our mark globally. Barama College offers undergraduate, postgraduate, and BCA programs, in addition to serving through the Study Center for KKHSOU for both UG and PG distance education programs. The college currently offers postgraduate programs in Bodo and has applied to introduce PG programs in Zoology. Plans also include the addition of Commerce at the undergraduate level.
Barama College occupies a huge resource of 97 bighas of land surrounded by lush forests and picturesque scenery, featuring a variety of flowers, including lilies, roses, and different orchids. The college has 2 girls' hostels with a capacity of 37 seats and 1 boys' hostel with a capacity of 20 seats.
We look forward to receiving support from academicians, pressure groups, and agencies to help make this college a distinguished institution in the area.
