Institutional Distinctiveness      

          

Government Degree College Bijbehara is an institute with a Vision “To emerge as a premier institution, fostering excellence in teaching, research and innovation, producing globally competent, ethically sound and socially responsible citizens.” and Mission “To provide inclusive, accessible and quality education , fostering critical thinking and creativity, to promote holistic development through interdisciplinary learning, skill building and values and to empower students with global competencies, preparing them for leadership roles in society, aligned with the transformative goals of NEP-2020”. With limited resources and facilities the college is struggling to achieve its goal.

Our institution is committed to impart quality education to students so as to foster their development by providing knowledge and skill to enable them to face the global challenges. Our focus is to serve students of different backgrounds and abilities, through effective teaching-learning pedagogy. The interactive and participative, information and communication technique (ICT) based approaches have been used. Students are given the wide option for choosing elective papers that address cross-cutting issues. Workshops for students are organized on regular basis to provide them additional knowledge/information thereby widening their horizon. The industrial visits, field/study trips are conducted to give exposure to our students. The guest lectures, presentations and exhibitions are organized on various topics. The students are encouraged by providing proper guidance to participate in intra and inter-collegiate co-curricular/extracurricular activities enabling them to enrich their knowledge. The students are provided ample opportunities to participate in Sports events for their overall development. The Students’ Council is functional to provide a platform to our students to showcase their talent in various fields. The N.S.S. unit has conducted a number of extension and outreach activities like Swachhta Abhiyan, Swachhta Pakhweda, Blood Donation Camps, Consumer Awareness Programmes and e-payments workshops which help the students to inculcate social responsibilities and values in order to transform them in to good citizens. Moreover, keeping in mind the surrounding areas being hot beds of Cannabis (Bhang) cultivation which is sometimes referred as “Bhang Bowl of Anantnag”, special awareness drug de-addiction programmes are organized so as to keep students at bay from indulging in this immoral practice which has far reaching evil consequences on the society in general and the addicts in particular.
