A Legacy Built Over Time
Tracing our roots and the foundation of excellence.
Govt. Madan Mohan College, situated in Lamabazar, Sylhet, stands as a beacon of higher education in northeastern Bangladesh. Established on January 26, 1940, the college was founded by philanthropists Mohini Mohan Das, Jugendra Mohan Das, and Prafulla Mohan Das in memory of their father, Madan Mohan Das. Their vision was to provide quality education to the region's youth. Initially offering courses in the arts and humanities, the college quickly gained a reputation for academic excellence. Over the years, it expanded its curriculum to include science, commerce, and social sciences, aligning with the evolving educational needs of the community. Today, Govt. Madan Mohan College offers a wide range of academic programs affiliated with the National University of Bangladesh, serving as a cornerstone of learning and development in Sylhet.
The foundation of Govt. Madan Mohan College was laid with the generous donation of 0.295 acres of land and a sum of twelve thousand rupees by the Das family. Under the leadership of its first principal, Pramod Chandra Goswami, the institution began its journey with a commitment to academic rigor and community service. The college's early years were marked by a focus on arts and humanities, reflecting the educational priorities of the time. As the demand for diverse academic disciplines grew, the college responded by introducing programs in science, commerce, and social sciences. This expansion not only broadened the college's academic offerings but also reinforced its role as a pivotal institution in the region's educational landscape.
Over the decades, Govt. Madan Mohan College has evolved into a multidisciplinary institution, offering programs across various faculties, including Science, Business Studies, Social Science, Biological Science, and Arts. The college's commitment to holistic education is evident in its emphasis on extracurricular activities, such as participation in the Bangladesh National Cadet Corps and Bangladesh Scouts. With a sprawling campus of 3.53 acres, the college boasts modern classrooms, laboratories, and a library housing over 50,000 books. Looking ahead, Govt. Madan Mohan College continues to uphold its mission of providing quality education and fostering intellectual growth, preparing students to contribute meaningfully to society.
