Prof. S Nurul Hasan College, Farakka was established in the year 1994 by the then M.L.A. of Farakka Late Abul Hasnat Khan. This college was named after the erstwhile governor of West Bengal, Late S. Nurul Hasan, an academician and historian of international repute. Starting with only two lady lecturers and a handful of students, this college now has nearly 4000 enrolled students and nearly 70 teachers, including teachers of full time, SACT and invite categories. There are about 12 subjects taught here including 9 honours or major subjects. The college has a lush green campus surrounded by NH 34 and the river Ganges. The college has gymnasium and cheap canteen facilities. The name of the current Principal of the college is Dr. Captain Sibasish Banerjee. As Principal I run the college with utmost care and efficiency and try to see that the college improves progressively. I leave no stone unturned to see that the classes are held regularly and the discipline of the college is strictly maintained. There’s a well – functioning physical education department in the college and a good NSS unit. I try to see that the college maintains high ethical and cultural values. Cultural programmes are regularly held in our college with great fanfare. The motto of our college is to keep the flame of learning burning. In future we will introduce Science stream in the college. The standard of faculty and teaching of the college is a matter of pride. The college has successfully fulfilled the dreams and aspirations of the local people who contributed generously in the establishment of the college. I wish the college fraternity every success in the coming years.
