DDR College has been
catering to the higher education needs of vast rural and academically , socially
and economically challenged students of Chabua. Providing opportunities to
learn degrees ,diplomas and Certificates of thousands of students over the years
has always focused on the needs of the not so privileged and underprivileged
sections of local indigenous communities and tribes. Besides, on the place of
being placed in not so comfortable situation via the urban counterparts in terms
of competition and job market, the impetus of such efforts have flowed towards
developing awareness for the need to be self employed. Over the years and
consistently the college has produced large number of small tea growers,
grassroots level political leaders governing the local governments, hosts of
traders and other categories of self employed members like voluntary
organization workers , press reporters and successful self help group leaders /
members. This is not to undermine the success of our alumni as school teachers
and government sector employees. At times , our institution has succeeded in
producing sports men and women of caliber. This mission rationale of an higher
education institution are many, and when established in the rural area ,the
mission itself becomes challenging to realize and pursue. However , DDR College
has succeeded to some extent in prevailing over the social, economic and
physical odds. This part of north east India has seen percolation of the
benefits of the strides of the large Indian and Assam’s urban economy.
Technology quite late and almost midway of the last decade. Thus the college
during the second half of the last decade endeavored to pay homage to the
founders of the institution by optimally using the opportunities. New
classrooms , a large auditorium ,
renovation of the Library and adding many more
publications and journals , internet connectivity Guwahati University approved
and sanctioned Computer and PG Courses , UGC approved and sanctioned courses ,
extension programs , career guidance / counseling programs , organizing a number
of national and state level seminars, guest lectures by eminent people and
constant interaction with the civil society for uplift of the academic
educational environment are some of the effort for quality assurance. The
institutional effort are on a war footing and the institution has already
proposed some collaborations with the faculties from institutions of
international and national eminent like the Himachal Pradesh University (HPU),
Visva-Bharati (Santiniketan), Indian Institute of Foreign Trade (IIFT), Indian
institute of Banking Management (IIBM), etc. The College also proposes to
online/ video conferencing with faculties and Resource Persons from such
institutions of eminent in the incoming academic sessions subject to
availability of funds and resources.
