Surya Sen Mahavidyalaya (SSM) is a co-educational college located in Siliguri. Established on September 15, 1998, the college offers undergraduate courses in all three streams: Arts, Science, and Commerce. It is one of the first five prime co-education colleges of Siliguri. The college has been affiliated with North Bengal University since 1998, and it is recognized by UGC under 2(f) and 12(b). Additionally, it is an ISO 9001:2015 certified and ISO 21001: 2018 and NAAC Accredited institution. The college is celebrating its Silver Jubilee Year this year.
In this Silver Jubilee Year, the SSM fraternity remembers the philanthropists of Siliguri whose effort during 1998 gave birth to this Mahavidyalaya. Among them, the first name that comes to our mind is the Late Bikash Ghosh, the then Mayor of Siliguri Municipal Corporation and the first President of our Governing Body (15/09/1998 to 27/12/2001).
The 25th College Foundation Day was celebrated on 15th September 2022 with much fanfare and gaiety. The Principal read out the Annual Report of the college and informed that the college will organise various programs throughout the year to mark its 25th year.
The college signed a MoU with IIGST , Kolkata to run various courses, organise seminars and providing internship scopes to the students. This centre of the IIGST will function as a nodal centre for North Bengal opening up scope for the students of the regions to undergo specialised courses.
Pallab Biswas, an alumnus of the college, will receive President's Award for his outstanding service to society. He is still actively involved with all the outreach of the college
