Welcome to SGRR( PG) College, Dehradun!
Established in 1960 by the great educationist and visionary
Brhahmaleen Shrimahant Indiresh Charan Dass ji Maharaj to enable the poor meritorious students of
society to realise their dream of getting
quality education at nominal cost, SGRR PG College holds a unique place
among HEIs of Uttarakhand due to its rich heritage and noble philanthropic background.
Starting with only three subjects at UG level
in Science Faculty in 1960, the college has come a long way in its journey of
62 years. Now the college is running UG/PG/Ph D programs in twelve subjects
under the Faculty of Arts and Faculty of
Science , with students from as many as twelve states enrolled in it.
As per the Vision statement of the college, achieving
excellence is one of our thrust areas
and the college has been constantly striving towards it . Due to this , the college has been able to
carve a niche for itself in the field of academic excellence, not only among
the colleges of Uttarakhand state but even on the national level. The college
has geared all its energies and resources towards developing a student centric
teaching and learning environment in the campus. The performance of the college
in its major thrust area, i.e. academic excellence, has established it as one
of the premier HEIs of Uttarakhand. More
than 150 DST-INSPIRE students have
taken admission in the college during last five years alone, who have been the flag bearers of the reputation of the college.
The college, situated amid
peaceful, calm and lush green surroundings provides a perfect ambience for
academic pursuits. Regular classes, completion of course in time, use of ICT in
teaching/learning, encouragement for excellent performance and constant
motivation to students to scale new heights in academics: these are the pivotal
factors which have resulted in attaining bright academic results by the students

Apart from academics, our students have excelled in co-curricular and extra curricular
activities also, winning prizes at
state/ national level. The college aims to impart a holistic education to
students whereby they are able to evolve

It is a unanimously accepted fact that the journey towards attaining excellence is a
continuous, ongoing process. Hence our college also is engaged continuously in
the process of quality enhancement . The
college is committed to attain excellence through a combination of self and
external quality evaluation measures and by adopting several quality
initiatives. While striving to attain its goals as manifested in its
Perspective Plan and Mission Statement, the college has also ensured that its
goals and objectives incorporate the five core values of NAAC and they are also aligned with the New Education Policy 2020. NEP
2020 is the biggest path-breaking reform in the country post-Independence, as
