All the Convocations till date were presided over by  Excellency under the Honorable Governor of West Bengal and Honorable Chancellor of the University. The University has completed distribution of all under-graduate (UG) certificates to the affiliated colleges for graduates till the year 2016. The post-graduate (PG) certificates have been issued up to the year 2018. Thus, backlogs of yesteryears have been cleared through sustained efforts of the University administration.

The University has total 53 affiliated colleges, all of them together have enrolled 53,000 UG students in the year 2018, about 65% of which are first-generation learners. As of now, nineteen colleges offer PG courses in different subject (subject-based autonomy). Out of the 46 colleges, eight colleges are NAAC-accredited  A – Grade colleges. The University has one B. P. Ed. College under its fold and several Special – education colleges.

The University has total 31 PG teaching departments include wide-range subjects from language, literature, social science,science,commerce and managements are taught. The total sanctioned strength of students in the PG departments is 1256 and this year, more than 80% seats have been filled up. More than 96% of the teachers are in the PG-Departments and they possess Ph. D degrees and some of them having Post-doctoral experiences in reputed overseas institutions and laboratories. Although the number of first-generation learners in the PG departments is quite large, the success of pass-outs from the University in the All-India NET examination from various departments is remarkable. Students are getting opportunities to pursue higher studies in eminent research Institutes like IIT, ISI, IISC, National Institute of Biomedical Gemonics etc and other reputed Universities.

Although the creation of infrastructure has not been as fast as it should have been, teachers in the PG Departments have engaged themselves in research activities right from the beginning and in the first three Convocations, a total number of 130 Ph.D were awarded with Degrees and  Certificates. This indeed is an achievement for a new university. Two teachers of the Zoology Department have got a patent, and teachers engaged in research have tried to publish their research results in the best of national and international journals. Some of the teachers from humanities and social sciences have achieved renown as authors of books at national and international levels, receiving literary awards for their accomplishments. This is of course a continuous effort and slowly but steadily, improvement in all arena is being felt.

The present Vice Chancellor of the University has been working since September 2015, and during the last four years, a speed in the development of infrastructure has been noted by the outsiders. Despite unusual delays in the initial years in appointing full time teachers in various Departments, no PG Department is now without permanent faculties. The vacant posts are also being filled up with an unprecedented speed now. State-of-the-art laboratory in the Department of Mathematics has been created with State Government funds. A G+5 administrative building and a G+7 academic block have been completed. The University has recently created a museum as well. A course on Korean language has also been initiated as part of the University’s attempt to create a school of foreign language. To facilitates this process, the University has entered into a MOU with Anian University of the Republic of South Korea. A language laboratory, two auditorium, development of a Conference Room, Roof-top solar system for power generation, etc. are projects in the pipeline.

The UG and PG examinations are being held in accordance with the academic calendar and results are being published on time. Grievances of the students about examinations are being solved proactively, and a sense of trust and confidence in the University system has been built. The drastic reduction in the number of court cases in this regard is an indicator of a transparent system. Applications under the RTI are being processed rapidly in the interest of the students.
