Dr. V.C. Pandey
Principal
You are indeed blessed to find an opportunity to get education in one of the best colleges of Uttarakhand, D.B.S. (PG) College, Dehradun which has been nurtured and expanded by the great visionary and educational reformer Late Shri Brijendra Swarupji. The college has the privilege of having a healthy, harmonious ambience and rich values which have played pivotal role in shaping the future of innumerable students. Our mission is to transform students into rational thinkers, competent workers, law abiding citizens and spiritually enlightened individuals. This is my firm belief that the rich values and traditions imbibed here would carry you to greater heights.
It is a matter of pride that the college has been granted ‘B’ grade in NACC accreditation in 2013. The achievement has burgeoned recently with the award of “College with Potential for Excellence” status by UGC. This could be possible with the blessings of Sri Jagendra Swarup ji and hard work done by college faculty members, staffs and students under the guidance of visionary management.
With proud legacy of 57 years, the college has excelled in every field. Many students have registered their presence in the merit list of Agra University, Meerut University and H.N.B. Garhwal University, Srinagar, Uttarakhand and others have brought laurels in cultural activities in University youth festivals. Our students have ranked high in all India competitions with some students getting selected abroad in Universities of high repute. We are university champion in sports and have won the trophy in Football this year also. Students educated from the college have carved a niche for themselves in various fields at national and international levels in both academia and extra-curricular activities. Our students have got more than 200 INSPIRE Fellowships. The College also provides higher level Research facilities in Science, Social Science and Humanities as well and Post-Graduation is offered in Microbiology and Biotechnology along with the core subjects.
In this era of cut throat competition, it is of paramount importance to be equipped with appropriate knowledge, habits, attitudes and values leading to holistic development. Co-curricular and extra-curricular activities organised by various clubs and committees facilitate the process of creative and critical thinking. They not only inculcate social and moral values, compassion for nature, pride for Indian culture and tradition and awareness for one’s rights and duties but also make students good human beings and confident leaders. I intently believe that you would develop versatile personality during your stay in this temple of learning.
As Swami Vivekananda said, “Truth can be stated in a thousand different ways, yet each one can be true.” Your education here, in this college and outside it, during your time here and long after you graduate, will help you find that truth. The true hallmark of that education would be one “by which character is formed, strength of mind is increased, the intellect is expanded, and by which one can stand on one’s own feet.” So, seek out that education, discover that truth and remember to use it well.
To be successful in life, have ambitions and define your goals clearly. Discipline and hard work is the key to success. Be regular in your classes and focus on your goals. Your concerted efforts with the able guidance of your teachers would definitely provide you a blissful and successful life.
I, on behalf of D.B.S. (P.G.) College family welcome all the students and wish you all the best for achieving greater success and scaling new heights in the coming session.
With blessing and warm wishes,
