GOVERNMENT COLLEGES IN 

CHANDIGARH : AN INTRODUCTION 

“What greater or better gift can we offer the republic 

than to teach and instruct our youth? 

~ Cicero 

Chandigarh, the city beautiful, has been efficiently performing the task of teaching and instructing 

young minds over the years. It has established itself as an educational hub in the region, a spring 

that has nurtured many a brilliant mind to fruition. The Chandigarh Administration is 

committed to providing top quality educational opportunities and facilities to the 

community. Over the years, the administration has set up five government colleges: 

nPost Graduate Govt. College, Sector 11 (PGGC-11, Co-educational) 

nGovt. College for Girls, Sector 11(GCG-11) 

nGovt. College for Girls, Sector42 (GCG-42) 

nGovt. College, Sector 46 (GC-46, Co-educational) 

nGovt. College of Commerce & Business Admn., Sector 42 (GCCBA, Co-educational) 

The colleges are affiliated to Panjab University, Chandigarh. All these colleges are under the 

governing umbrella of the Chandigarh Administration, and are directly monitored by the Director, 

Higher Education. These colleges cater to various professional skills, promote value based 

education, develop and enhance the potential of the students and ingrain in them the ideals of social 

equality and service, discipline and respect. 

Heights by great men reached and kept 

were not attained by sudden flight 

but they, while their brethren slept, 

were toiling upward in the night. 

~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

innovative, and are aimed at enabling the 

students' easy comprehension and grasp.

the students facilitates a very encouraging and 

motivating learning environment. To expose 

the students to the best brains in respective 

fields, extensions lectures and seminars are 

organised wherein eminent educationists, 

subject experts and professionals are invited to 

deliver lectures and conduct workshops. 

Courses 

The colleges provide a wide range of under

humanities, science and commerce and other 

related fields as well as specialized fields such

add-on courses, soft skills and IT based

move beyond the boundaries of the course 

contents and to explore various dimensions of 

knowledge. Each college publishes its own 

magazine which serves as a forum for 

creativity and self-expression, along with 

showcasing the college's activities and 

achievements. There are clubs and discussion 

forums to foster critical thinking, and provide a 

platform for honing talent in debates,

We aim to help develop the students as individuals who have the ability to differentiate 

between right and wrong, good and evil. We consider it our responsibility to teach the 

youth to make the right choices in life through education. 

By education, I mean, that training in excellence from youth upwards, 

which makes a man passionately desire to be a perfect citizen, 

and teaches him to rule, and to obey, with justice. 

This is the only education, which deserves the name. 

That other sort of training that aims at acquiring wealth or bodily strength, 

is not worthy to be called education at all.
