Dr. (Mrs.) Purabi Saikia

Principal,

Bhagini Nivedita College

Set up with a special mission to empower young women through higher education, Bhagini Nivedita

College has grown from strength to strength since its inception in 1993 and now has student strength

of around 1500 pursuing an array of undergraduate courses. Annual admissions have risen significantly

from only about 300 in 2000 to 537 last year.

BNC has also steadily expanded its academic scope. As of the Academic Year 2017-18, BNC offers nine

different programmes. There are three honours courses in arts covering Hindi, History and Political

Science along with two honours courses in Science comprising Home Science and Physics. These are in

addition to its most popular B.A. Programme, B.Com and the B. Sc. course in Physical Sciences.

A major hallmark of BNC's achievement is the way the students have been able to outperform

themselves by graduating with better grades. This has been, no doubt, made possible by the team of

dedicated teaching and non-teaching staff who help the students in harnessing their full potential.

BNC is always alive to the need for providing to the students a wholesome educational experience,

which besides fulfilling their educational needs prepares them for life by involving them in a wide

variety of co-curricular and extra-curricular activities. The college utilises specially created Committees,

Cells and Societies for expanding the opportunities available for students to build their personalities

and become self-confident and socially responsible. BNC is a constituent college of the University of

Delhi and accredited as good by NAAC with a 'B' grade.

In the year of its Silver Jubilee, BNC rededicates itself to its vision and mission and looks forward to

taking more and more students under its fold and paving the way for their better future.

Sister Nivedita: A brief Biography

Sister Nivedita (Margaret Elizabeth Noble) was born on October 28, 1867 in

Northern Ireland. She got her early education in London and attended Halifax

College where she studied subjects like physics, arts, music and literature. She

embraced teaching at the age of seventeen and established a school in

Wimbledon where she followed her own unique methods of teaching. She was

a prolific writer and wrote for newspapers and periodicals and as a result,

became a known name among the intellectuals of London

She attended the lectures of Swami Vivekananda in November 1895 in London

and was inspired by his teachings. She responded to his call for playing a role

in educating Indian women and arrived in Kolkata on January 28, 1898. Swami

Vivekananda familiarised her with India’s history, philosophy, literature, social

traditions and the life of the common masses. On March 25, 1898, Swami

Vivekananda gave her the name "Nivedita", the dedicated one.

She toured England and America, gave lectures on India and raised funds to

establish a girl’s school. On November 13, 1898, on the day of Kali Puja, she started the school in the

Bagbazar area of Calcutta. The school was inaugurated by Sarada Devi. She also went from home to

home to educate girls, in spite of the resistance from the male members of the family and the pitiable

socio-economic condition of women. She taught history, geography, natural sciences and a little bit of

English. She would also teach them sewing, drawing and handicrafts. She also encouraged them to take

up physical exercises. She also gave special instructions to a few educated ladies in order to make them

good teachers.

During the outbreak of plague epidemic in Kolkata in 1899, Sister Nivedita nursed and took care of the

patients, cleaned rubbish from the area, and inspired and motivated many youths to render voluntary

service. She also organised day-to-day activities, inspected the work being done and personally handed

over written instructions about the preventive measures to be undertaken.

Sister Nivedita died on October 13, 1911, at the age of 43, in Darjeeling. Her memorial is located below

the railway station on the way to the Victoria Falls of Darjeeling. In 1968, the Indian Government issued

a postal stamp in her memory.

Introduction

Bhagini Nivedita College, a constituent college of the University of Delhi, was established by the Delhi

Administration in August, 1993 as a ‘women’s college’. In October 1994, the College was named

'Bhagini Nivedita College' after Sister Nivedita, a disciple of Swami Vivekananda, who had dedicated her

whole life for the education and betterment of Indian women. Bhagini Nivedita College has completed

25 years with an impressive reputation and distinct identity not only in the field of academics but also in

sports. It is an esteemed institution with highly qualified academicians imparting education in different

fields. The college believes in providing an atmosphere of academic excellence together with the right

amount of extra-curricular activities which is necessary for empowering women. The college is located

Vision

‚The overarching vision of Bhagini Nivedita College is empowering women

through well-rounded and integrated education and preparing them for

excelling in leadership and functional roles at home, in society, within

The focus on providing integrated and well – rounded education befits the key role that undergraduate

courses play in building strong foundations for the future as well as for pursuing further specialisations.

preparing the students for both leadership and functional roles to take the full advantage of the

opportunities that they get.

Choice Based Credit System (CBCS)

The Indian Higher Education Institutions have been moving from the conventional annual system to

semester system. Currently many of the institutions have already introduced the choice based credit

system. The credit based semester system provides flexibility in designing curriculum and assigning

credits based on the course content and hours of teaching. The choice based credit system provides an

approach in which the students can take courses of their choice, learn at their own pace, undergo

additional courses and acquire more than the required credits, and adopt an interdisciplinary approach

to learning.

Courses in a programme are of three kinds: Core, Elective and Foundation.

Core Course: There may be a Core Course in every semester. This is the course which is to be

compulsorily studied by a student as a core requirement to complete the requirement of a programme

in a said discipline of study.

Elective Course: Elective course is a course which can be chosen from a pool of papers. An elective may

be ‚Generic Elective‛ focusing on those courses which add generic proficiency to the students. An

elective may be ‚Discipline centric‛or may be chosen from an unrelated discipline.

It may be:

Supportive to the discipline of study

Providing an expanded scope

Enabling an exposure to some other discipline/domain

Nurturing student’s proficiency/skill.

Foundation Course: The Foundation Courses may be of two kinds: Compulsory Foundation and

Elective foundation. ‚Compulsory Foundation‛ courses are the courses based upon the content that

leads to Knowledge enhancement. They are mandatory for all disciplines. Elective Foundation courses

are value-based and are aimed at man-making education.
