Dakshin Dinajpur University

The Dakshin Dinajpur University (DDU) is committed to ignite, guide and channelize the quest for higher learning. The University is dedicated to foster the urge for continuous self-development in every student, researcher and Faculty alike, by providing them with equal opportunity in every sphere of activities. The institutional system is designed to build on and further the knowledge economy with a clear focus on the needs of the immediate community and the nation at large. DDU shall instill the philosophy amongst its students that the principle to learning and acquiring knowledge lies in our ability “to learn, un-learn and re-learn”. This learning mantra is at the core of DDU, equipping the students with problem solving – practical and academic and develop skills to face the challenges of the 21st century.

DDU is situated in the Dakshin Dinajpur district of West Bengal. The district has a rich cultural heritage and has high literacy rates among both men and women. The University, as the highest seat of learning, will serve as a catalyst of social change and educational mobility, of inclusive growth and an agent of socio-economic development for the district. It shall build bridges and usher in a new dawn of hope. DDU shall strive to have its footprint in the national canvas by parenting a stream of capable human resources, year after year. DDU will not limit its academic programmes to traditional courses only, but would also focus on professional courses and will remain open to participation and cooperation from every potential resource. In this journey DDU looks up to every stakeholder for support and constructive suggestions for continuous development.
