I am really pleased to welcome and extend my words of encouragement to all candidates who come forward seeking admission into various courses in Barama College. Established in 1971 and situated in an enviable and charming atmosphere, Barama College has traversed a long way of 52 years of its existence. The College has grown up into a glorious field of higher education during its long journey with the best academic atmosphere. In the process of its basic exercise, Barama College has accomplished a milestone in the field of higher education in the greater Baksa area of Assam. Today the college is constantly striving to offer quality education aiming at nurturing knowledge, skill and attitude in individuals to build them responsive to the changing socio-economic and cultural realities of the present society.
An institution of higher learning was a long cherished dream of the people of greater Baksa area. The dream beacame reality on 5th Feb 1971, when Barama College was founded under the able leadership of Late Surendra Nath Das, the ex-MLA of 62 Barama (ST) LAC. It was affiliated to the university of Gauhati and was brought under Deficit-Grants-in-Aid System by the Govt. of Assam in 1978. Barama College (Science Stream), which was introduced in 1992, was provincialized by the Govt. of Assam w.e.f 1st January 2013 after its two decades of untiring endeavour.
