MILESTONES
The college was established on the17th July,
1932, by Shyamaprasad Mukherjee, in response
to the growing demand for centres of women's
education in Kolkata. It was started as women's
section of Asutosh College and functioned within
the latter's premises in the morning hours. The
first Principal of the college was Panchanan Sinha
and the Vice-principal Kalidas Sen. Distinguished
Bengali author, Lila Majumdar was its first
professor.
The college began existence as a separate
establishment in 1957 when it was delinked from
Asutosh College and affiliated to Calcutta
University as Asutosh College for Women (1958).
The college was renamed Jogamaya Devi College
after the demise of Lady Jogamaya Devi, the
noble and spirited wife of Sir Asutosh Mukherjee,
and mother of Shyamaprasad Mukherjee.
The women's section of Asutosh College was
started with 155 students enrolled for the I.A.
course in 1932. It was a matter of great pride for
the college that six of its students were rank-
holders in the I.A. examination of 1946. Smt.
Gouri Sen, who stood first in this examination,
became the principal of Lady Brabourne College
and subsequently DPI of West Bengal.
As the college evolved from its humble
beginning new departments were added to it

THE DEPARTMENTS AND FACULTY
The College has 18 Departments teaching the BA, BSc,
and B.Com. Honours and General courses. These are run
by a highly qualified and enterprising faculty, who strive
to continue the rich tradition of academic excellence
initiated by renowned teachers. The faculty constantly
upgrade themselves by participating in Refresher and
Orientation Courses, seminars, conferences and
workshops on current trends in their subjects. Many of
the teachers are engaged in research and the supervision
of Ph.D students and have published several papers in
national and international journals. They also regularly
take the Post Graduate classes of the Vidyasagar
University Distance Learning Study Centre and remedial
coaching classes for SC/ST/OBC and minority community
students. The results of the University examinations
have been consistently good and there have been
several University Rank holders in the past.
It is the supreme art of
the teacher to awaken
joy in creative expression
and knowledge.
