  About the Department:
  The Department of History was introduced as a Pass Course subject for the students in the year 1998, when the college 'Surya Sen Mahavidyalaya' was established. The growing interest and the demand of the students in the subject led to the introduction of Honours in B.A. Course in the year 2008. Although started with few numbers of teachers, currently the department has 2 Substantive Assistant Professors with Ph.D. and three State Aided College Teachers. The huge number of students in the general course are really handled well by these handful of dedicated teachers. Many students have completed their M.A. and doing well in their professional lives. With the introduction of CBCS system and the Semester mode of examination in place of 1+1+1 system in the academic year 2018-2019, the percentage acquired by the students in the Honours are mentionworthy. Our Central Library has good number of History books for the benefits of the students in both Honours and General course. Teachers cooperate with the students in guiding and counselling them through Mentor-Mentee programme meant for students who need extra guidance in the subject matter. The department organises student centric seminars, invited lectures, faculty exchange programme, Workshop, Poster Exhibition and competition, Museum visit, Wall Magazine, Monthly Test, etc. to make learning more interesting and dynamic.
