About the College
“We should know that the great task of our institution is to provide for the education of the mind and all the senses through various activities”.
- Rabindranath Tagore (quoted by J.C Aggarwal in Essentials of Educational Psychology, p.10)
Government General Degree College, Mohanpur was established in 2015 at Srirampur village at an interior location of the district Paschim Medinipur to fulfill the aspiration of higher education and people of Mohanpur Block. Being affiliated to the Vidyasagar University the institute began its teaching learning process with 114 numbers of students only sporadically divided into 5 Honours subjects (Bengali, English, History, Philosophy & Sociology) and one general discipline (B.A. General). Gradually three science subjects (Botany, Physiology & Zoology) were added. As we have said the institution was established to cater to popular aspirations, our college has been relentlessly meeting up educational requirements of hundreds of young men and women of and around Mohanpur. Most of them belong to financially backward farming villages, and are first generation learners as well. Our college has therefore made it a mission to uplift this marginalized section of the society by bringing up quality education to them. With dedicated teaching-learning services we envision moral and professional development amongst our students.
