All Departments

After Shillong College was established, the need to introduce Education as one of the subjects and a Department was aptly felt. Initially, part timers like Shri P. Gupta and Shri S Majumder and few others managed the Department successfully during those hard times. It was till the 9th of August 1961 that a regular teacher was appointed, with Shri Nani Gopal Goswami joined as the first regular teacher and continued his service till he expired in the year 1993. Shri. Baidyanath Bhattacharjee joined in 1963, and retired in the early eighties. Dr. (Mrs.) B. Lyndem joined the Department in the year 1964 but on having been appointed in a better assignment in North-Eastern Hill University in 1990, she had to leave the Department. Mrs. O. Kharkongor joined as a Lecturer in the Department in the year 1983, and served as Head of Department from the year 1993 till her retirement on 30th November 2013. Dr (Miss) R.

Iangrai joined as Lecturer on 29th October 1991 and also as a Programme Officer of NSS from 1996 and received University NSS Award.

He has taken the Headship of the Department on the 1st January 2020. Dr (Ms) H. Diengdoh joined the Department in 9th September, 1994. She contributed an article entitled “Women’s Reservation Bill- Some Observations” which was published in a book entitled “Women’s White Canvas – Issues and Challenges” in 2015.

The teachers take extra care and interest to meet the requirements of the students, the wholesome academic environment and in transforming towards a dynamic and effective learning society
The Department has been catering to the needs of the students at the Pre University level and Undergraduate level since its inception and from 1996 both in General and Honours. All the teachers are adequately qualified as per the UGC norms and their appointments, Government’s approved. They are involved conscientiously in scholarly activities and for professional competency, and also for the welfare of the society.
