Budge Budge College was established on the 10th December 1971 at Achipore with
the purpose of imparting meaningful education to the student of the
locality who had to face serious problems in respect of admission
in different Colleges in kolkata. It had a small beginning. The
College, at first, started in the domestic house donated by Late
Rani Bala Dhar with a very limited number of student, teaching and
non-teaching staff. Subsequently, it was shifted to Senpukur (Budge
Budge) wherein classes were held at a residential building donated
by Late Charu Bala Dasi, wife of Lata Nagendra Nath Das. At that
time the University of Calcutta granted affiliation in pre-university (Arts
& Commerce) & B.Com Pass Course. The College got extension
of affiliation in 1973 in B.A course. Subsequently, Honours courses
were introduced in Accountancy, English, Bengali, Political
Science, History, Education, Geography, Philosophy, Zoology and
Botany. In the Science stream, both Bio and Pure Science are taught
in the college in general course. The courses are well organized to
provide a wide spectrum of choices to the student. The optional
courses allow students to choose a particular field according to
their areas of interest. In this way, the infant institution of 1971 has now
grown into a full-fledged Degree College. It has over the years
carved a name for itself in providing quality education in the
subjects taught. The college attained its 25th year in 1996-97 and
the silver jubilee was celebrated with due solemnity by the silver jubilee
celebration committee.
