Our College has completed sixty years of its glorious existance in 2001 and has served the cause of higher education in the city of kolkata and its subrups. It is our firm belief that a college does not merely provide text-book knowledge to students, but also equips them with essential inputs such as values, attitudes towards life, sense of responsibility and awareness about the people and the society they live in. Students grow and mature into young intellectuals and activists while they pass through college days. We take pride in the fact that this college offers the proper and right kind of environment to our students to fulfil these aims and the members of the faculty of different subjects in this college help them to achieve this. I Welcome all our viewers who have opened this website.

The College aims at imparting Education in Science, Arts and Commerce streams to the students (both boys and girls) of lower and middle class people of Kolkata and its adjoining areas. It proposes to maintain creative thinking and unity in diversity.

The Foundation :On the 15th of July, 1941, a great expectation of the people living north of Beodon Street was fulfilled with the foundation of Maharaja Manindra Chandra College at 20, Ramkanto Bose Street, Kolkota - 700 003. It had been possible due to the drive and initiative of some public – spirited personalities of the locality, especially due to the pioneering spirit of Dr. Panchanan Neogi I.E.S. (Retd) a well - Known educationist of the time, and the benevolence of Maharaja Sris Chandra Nandy of Cossimbazar.

The genesis of the College may be traced to a public meeting held on December 15, 1940, at 44/A, New Shambazar Street. A resolution was adopted in that meeting to the effect that an Arts, Science and Commerce college be opened in memory of the late illustrious Maharaja Sri Manindra Chandra Nandy of Cossimbazar at 20 Ramkanto Bose Street, Kolkata, which premises his son Hon'ble Maharaja Sris Chandra Nandi had kindly consented to make over to the proposed Governing Body of the College. The college was accordingly named Maharaja Manindra Chandra College.
