ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY

An Overview

In the early 1950s, the township of Kalyani was developed as the brainchild of DR. Bidhan Chandra Roy, the then

Chief Minister of West Bengal. Kalyani was planned to grow as a satellite town in the long-term perspective plan

of the Calcutta Urban Agglomeration. For planned development of the town, the need for emphasizing education

and health infrastructure was duly emphasized in the master plan and the University of Kalyani was established

in November 1960, as a unitary University with the faculties of Arts, Science, Education, and Agriculture. Since its

inception, the University marked its progress and attracted students of the region as well as many eminent scholars

of the country. However, in its early stage of growth, the University was bifurcated in the year 1975 when its Faculty

of Agriculture evolved into a full-fledged Agricultural University, named Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya,

which was established in the Mohanpur campus. Just after the bifurcation, the University of Kalyani was left with

12 teaching departments under the faculties of Arts and Science only. It started reorganizing its activities and by

the end of the 1970s, the University could introduce four more departments, namely History, Political Science, and

Commerce under the Faculty of Arts, which was converted to Faculty of Arts and Commerce, and Bio-chemistry

& Biophysics under the Faculty of Science. Since then, the University has been continuously expanding its area

of studies. In the 1980s, the Department of Environmental Science (under Faculty of Science), and the Department

of Modern Languages (under Faculty of Arts & Commerce) were started. In the decade of 1990s, three more

departments were started, namely, Folklore, Library Information Science (Faculty of Arts & Commerce) and

Computer Science (Faculty of Science). Till 1998, the University was a unitary university offering also

undergraduate teaching. In 1998 it became an affiliating university with its territorial jurisdiction extended to the

districts of Nadia and Murshidabad, and it affiliated 37 colleges, earlier under Calcutta University. Since then the

undergraduate teaching programmes at the University were discontinued and were left to its affiliated colleges. In

the early part of the first decade of this century, the University introduced 6 new departments, namely, Business

Administration, Microbiology, Geography, Molecular Biology & Bio-Technology, Physiology, and Rural

Development & Management. It has also introduced the Faculty of Engineering, Technology, and Management,

with the departments of Business Administration, Computer Science & Engineering, and Rural Administration &

Management. During the last five years, a new Faculty of Music and Fine Arts consisting of the Department of

Visual Arts, one new Department in the Faculty of Engineering viz Department of Engineering and Technology

Studies, one in the Faculty of Science (Department of Environment and Ecology), and four in the Faculty of Arts

and Commerce (Departments of Hindi, Philosophy, Sanskrit, Rural Development Studies) have been established.

In addition, research centres such as Envis Centre on Environmental Biotechnology, Centre for Studies on Bengali

Diaspora, Centre for Woman Studies, Rabindra Adhyan Centre, Centre for Cultural Studies etc. have also been

introduced during the last five years. Besides, two of the earlier existing centre have been upgraded into two

departments viz. the Department of Adult, Continuing Education and Extension Studies and the Department of

Engineering and Technological Studies. Both of these are providing excellent student support in addition to their

commendable works. One more faculty, namely Law, is in the process of crystallization.

Besides the teaching and research departments, the University has also affiliated with several institutes which are

providing extension-related services through several certificate courses and diplomas.

INTERNAL QUALITY ASSURANCE CELL (IQAC) In pursuance of its Action Plan for performance evaluation, assessment &

accreditation & quality up-gradation of institutions of higher education, NAAC

proposes that every accredited institution should establish an Internal Quality

Assurance Cell (IQAC) as a post-accreditation quality sustenance measure. Since

quality enhancement is a continuous process, the IQAC will become a part of the

institution’s system & work towards realization of the goals of quality enhancement

& sustenance. The prime task of the IQAC is to develop a system for conscious,

consistent & catalytic improvement in the overall performance of institutions. For

this, during the post-accreditation period, it will channelize all efforts & measures of

the institution towards promoting its holistic academic excellence.
