History[edit]
Sometime in 1955, Sri Jibandhan Ganguly, a renowned social worker and educationist from Belgharia, donated about 11 bighas of land to the West Bengal Government for the setting up of a degree college in Belgharia for the teaching of arts, science, and commerce. The primary objective was to provide higher education opportunities for boys and, more particularly, for girls in the industrial area of Belgharia since it was inconvenient to continue higher education in Kolkata. The college came into being on 3 September 1968.
The Government subsequently merged the Arts Section of the Vivekananda Centenary College with the newly established Bhairab Ganguly College, and this came as a booster to the new institution as a good number of experienced teachers joined the college.
In 1969 it opened an Evening Commerce Section to meet the demand for Commerce education. However, this was subsequently merged with the day session in 1980.
Eminent faculty[edit]
Many eminent scholars have enriched the faculty of the college. Most mention worthy among them are Mr. Amit Kushari in Physics (joined the Indian Administrative Service later on), Dr. Debasis Mukherjee in Chemistry (He later on became the Director of the Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science and received the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Award in Chemical Science).
New subjects[edit]
In recent years honours in many new subjects like Computer Science, Electronics, Journalism, Mathematics, Zoology, Botany, Urdu, Bengali, Philosophy and Physiology have been introduced. Dr. Biswanath Ghosh, Principal till 31 January 2008, played the pioneering role in this regard. He also constructed the new building, library room and auditorium ‘Alapan’. After his retirement there were two teacher in charges before Dr. Minakshi Roy joined as full-time principal. The college is successfully running a Major (previously known as vocational course) course "Advertising, Sales Promotion and Sales Management" since 1997. Dr. Roy continued the process of development of the college initiated by the previous principal Dr. Ghosh and through her able leadership the college has been awarded Grade A by NAAC in 2016.
NAAC inspection[edit]
Under the leadership of the Principal Dr. Minakshi Roy, and Dr. Sahana Chakraborty (the Coordinator of the NAAC Steering Committee), and cooperated by all the teaching staff, non-teaching staff and the students (both present and alumni), the college has been accredited Grade A by the NAAC.
