Established in 1881, Burdwan Raj College is one of the premier institutes of higher learning in the state of Bengal. It carries a glorious heritage and ranks amongst the oldest colleges of state. This picturesque campus of about seventeen acres is situated at the nerve-centre of the town by the side of the serenely beautiful Shyamsayar.

From the very beginning Burdwan Raj College is recognized as an excellent academic institution where learning goes hand in hand with instilling values that transform human beings and the society. It has produced a galaxy of eminent personalities in various fields of arts, science, commerce, politics and general administration.

Mere education for education’s sake is not our goal; education with a mission to strengthen the human bond in the larger perspective of the globe is our emphasis. The College always feels the need of values that can unite human beings in a society which is torn by disquiet, disorder and disintegration and marches ahead in the quest of further advancement of quality and excellence.
