With
its imposing legacy, City College refers back to the golden days of the Bengal
Renaissance. In 1881, stalwarts of the Sadharan Brahmo Samaj envisaged a holistic
system of education for the younger generation. Since its inception, City College
has been retaining that 'man-making' vision.
This
college provides a stimulating environment where young minds have a fair chance
to bloom into mature intellects. The college offers a wide choice of undergraduate
courses both at honours and general level in disciplines of Arts, Science and
Commerce. City College draws its academic strength from its competent faculties,
well-equipped laboratories and an exceptionally resourceful library. Seminars,
workshops and various extension programmes further liven up the institutional
ambience.
In
its long run of 129 years, City College
can boast of playing Alma Mater to numerous
illustrious minds of Bengal's progressive
past and present. And, the future of
this trend surely holds myriad promises
for the posterity.
