Panchur College
Affiliated to University of Calcutta
Established in 2008, in the historically rich area of Metiaburz (Kolkata), Panchur College, being one of the youngest colleges in the State of West Bengal, has recently completed sixteen years of dedicated service towards education among the student community. It has slowly and steadily moved ahead since its inception, to fulfill its goal of providing quality education to all at an affordable cost. From the time of its establishment, it has been trying to fulfill the requirements of higher education in the predominantly minority inhabited locality of Metiaburz – Santoshpur – Akra- Maheshtala. It has faced various challenges and difficulties in the last sixteen years. But, instead of suppressing its zeal, they have acted as catalysts for its determination to move ahead.
Panchur College, a fledging college, offers quality education to the students in the economic hub of Metiabruz, Santoshpur and Akra area. Since our motto is “From Darkness to Light,” we aspire to handle the students of the backward segment of society and the minorities and transform them into citizens of excellence despite facing all odds. In this path towards their transformation, we have created a conducive academic atmosphere with competent teachers along with adequate classrooms, library and sports facilities. The college has been relentlessly striving towards enhancing the quality and scope of its educational initiatives and to increase and improve its infrastructural facilities. It tries to provide a platform to its students where they can blend their academic pursuits with their co-curricular activities for a holistic development of their personalities. Highly motivated faculty members constantly try to upgrade their teaching methods in order to enlarge the mental horizons of their students. The efficiency of the office staff also enhances the academic and administrative environment of the institution, thereby further aiding the students in the process of learning.
It gives me immense contentment to be a part of Panchur College and to serve the institution to the best of my ability.
