Our Vision


The vision of the college is to impart education and knowledge at all levels of the society. The vision is to build up a sound human resource base of the state and to attain the status of a model evening college in the Eastern region of India.

 

Our Mission


All of us are familiar with the Sanskrit phrase ‘Chhatranam adhyanang tapoh’. Taking inspiration from this maxim our mission is to provide a thorough ethical and aesthetic foundation to the character of our students. Going beyond formal pedagogy we wish to develop a model human resource center, which would not churn out students but build human beings who are humble yet confident. Thus our motto: ‘Vidya dadati vinayang’. Surendranath Evening College vows to attain the objectives of a model evening college in Bengal vis-a-vis India.

 

 

 


Our Belief


We believe that higher education in diversified fields of studies is most fruitful when individuals at every level of our society share it. This is well reflected when our students excel in their job places. We believe that “knowledge imparts humility”.
