Principal’s Message
It is with a deep sense of gratitude that I welcome
all the students of Pachhunga University College to the
new academic session of 2022. Each of us has suffered loss
or hardship because of the Pandemic for the last two years,
and yet, we are still here, looking hopefully towards a bet-
PROSPECTUS 2022 - 2023

ter future. The Pandemic has taught us the importance of


self-sufficiency, resilience and compassion, and these les-
sons go hand in hand with our motto “Learning and Serv-
ice” as we strive to work harder, to do better, and to
perform more acts of service.

Towards the end of the last academic session, we had


been able to hold classes within the College for our final semester students. It is our hope that their
juniors too, will be able to experience college life and all its benefits. Our hard-working faculty have
done their utmost to provide quality online classes, and their efforts have been reflected accordingly
in the University Examinations. However, we hope the students will soon experience the newly
constructed and upgraded facilities- our buildings, laboratories, library, Resource centres and sports
complex, as well as the camaraderie that exists between faculty and students. Let us all hope and
pray that this will be made possible, and that no student will ever again have to miss out on their
education due to lack of connectivity.

We are blessed with two new academic buildings, one hostel which were under con-
struction. The construction of three more academic buildings is about to start. With this new
academic session, the College is ensuring that we are providing quality education on par with
the best colleges in the nation as we enter the third phase of our National Assessment and
Accreditation Council (NAAC) assessment and accreditation. We have also started con-
ducting admission procedures under the Central Universities Entrance Test (CUET), a com-
mon test for all central universities which is conducted by the National Testing Agency
(NTA). The College welcomed the National Education Policy (NEP), 2020 and we are ready
to start the course under NEP guidelines. We believe in the capability of our students, and
we are working to provide the best education and facilities so that their full capabilities are
realized and recognized. New postgraduate course in M.Sc in Applied Mathematics & Sta-
tistics is also to be started in the new academic session, I expressed my sincere thanks to Mi-
zoram University.

I request all the students, staff and visitors to follow the PUC policy of Plastic Free,
horn free, smoking free and ragging free campus.
Thank you

I, on behalf of Pachhunga University College, welcome all our dear students and wish
you all the best for achieving greater success and scaling new heights in the coming session.

(Prof. H. LALTHANZARA)

Pu Pachhunga handed
over a valuable gift of
Rs. 50,000/- to Rev.
Alwyn Roberts, Principal
of Pachhunga College in
1962.The first College of
Mizoram 'Aijal Collage'
was renamed as
'Pachhunga Memorial
College'.

The Origin
“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”
The foundation of education in Mizoram was laid along with the Christian religious
doctrines immediately following the Gospel brought to Mizoram by the two pioneer mission-
aries - Rev. F.W. Savidge (Sap Upa) and Rev. J.H. Lorrain (Pu Buanga) sent by Arthington
Aborigines Mission who set foot on Mizoram on January 11, 1894. A device of alphabet for
Mizo language was followed by a steady and rather rapid growth of literacy. The missionaries
paved the way of progress for education while they were spreading the Gospel. The progress
of literacy was greatly expedited with the establishment of the first main educational school
building in Mizoram named Boy’s Middle English School known was Sikul Pui in 1907.

For quite some time, one had to go and the opportunity of having a College, the
