Access to knowledge is the birthright of every individual. Education

hasalways been considered as the greatest liberating force for the individual. It is the

key component of human development and considered essential to the all-round

development of the individual in material, mental, and spiritual levels. Wider door for

accessing higher education is the important parameter for enhancement of human

capabilities, which expands the freedom from all types of servitude which is the

cornerstone of empowerment.

Though Sidho-Kanho-Birsha University is tender in an age in West Bengal Higher education platform, yet it has

emerged as the most promising University. Within a short period, our University has positioned itself in a

momentous site in the educational map of West Bengal regarding academic and co-curricular activities by achieving

some distinct goals. We have a 100 % ragging- free tobacco-free smart campus with a fully automated central

library. The entire campus is brought under Wi-Fi networks. International standard Guest House, the introduction of

job-oriented courses, amiable student‟s teacher‟s relationship, the establishment of career-oriented coaching centers

are some of the benchmarks of our University.

Apart from the infrastructural issues our students‟ academic performance in all India level examinations like NET,

SET GATE encourages us to work harder. The University left no stone to be unturned for the betterment of quality

curricular and co-curricular atmosphere where a considerable number of students are either from the first-generation

learner or from the marginalized economic background.

A University should not be satisfied just only to stare at the learners. University should have a mission to contribute

to the larger society apart from its academic endeavor. We have a big role at our shoulder to conserve, preserve and

restore its age-old tradition, various ethnic composition, and distinctive cultural facets relevant in the present socio-

economic milieu. We have adopted a series of activities in this regard. Introduction of courses on traditional

knowledge and culture like Lac, Chhau, Jhumur, Women studies, South Asian Studies, the establishment of

Museum is a few facets of the University.

We need to mobilize our intuitive knowledge, skilled efforts, and farsighted vision in a resourceful way to establish

this institution to its magnificence. Despite some great challenges to confront, our collective efforts, dedication, and

hard work are the only panacea to triumph over all the obstacles and to find out the solutions to the diverse

problems that beset our society.

At our Sidho-Kanho-Birsha University, we not only confine ourselves in disseminating facts, figures, and

information but also train the young mind to think beyond to unlock the new windows of intellects with rational

thought and humanity. We are committed to holistically organizing to its learners to convert them to a fully

functioning ethical value-based individual who will be a responsible citizen with self-respect and self-dignity in the

tune of Swamiji‟s Clarion “Education is the manifestation of perfection already in man”.
