Brief Profile

Bhagini Nivedita College was established by the then Delhi Administration (now Government of Delhi) in August, 1993 as a 'Women's College' in the South Western part of Delhi. The college campus is located in a clean and green environment surrounded by farms and trees at Kair near Mitraon off Najafgarh on Dhansa Road. Nearest Metro Station is Dwarka Mor. Bus Routes include 824, 942, 835, 836 College van plies to and from Mitraon at fixed schedule.

The college is named after Sister Nivedita, a disciple of Swami Vivekanand who dedicated her whole life for the education and welfare of women.

Starting with only B A (Pass), B A (Hons.) Hindi in 1993, BNC has progressively added more courses. B. Com (Pass) was introduced in 1996-97. BNC was the first Delhi University college to offer Apparel Design and Construction course in 1997.

B.A. Programme replaced the B A (Pass) course in 2004. A variety of new application courses were also instituted along with it. BNC became an arts,commerce and science college with the launching of B. Sc Applied Physical Sciences course in 2007.

Currently, the college has over 800 students pursuing four different graduate courses. Annual admissions had gone up to 322 students in 2008 consisting of 221 for the B.A. Programme, 55 for B. Com. Course, 24 for the B.A. Honours Degree in Hindi and 22 for the

4 newly introduced B.Sc.Programme in Applied Physical Sciences (Computer Science).

Since its inception, BNC has built up an impressive reputation and record in both academics and sports. The teaching faculty consists of highly qualified academicians. It has excellent laboratories, infrastructure facilities and supporting staff.

Motto & Mission

The motto of BNC is 'Vidya Shakti Samasthanam' which means the 'Spiritual Seat of the Power of Education'. BNC's mission is to inculcate academic excellence, in a motivating learning environment with the right amount of extra curricular activities.

BNC, a college dedicated to transform the lives of girl students is fittingly named after Bhagini Nivedita. Sister Nivedita's childhood name was Margaret Elizabeth Noble. She became a disciple of Swami Vivekanand in 1898. Swami Vivekanand gave her the name 'Nivedita', meaning one who is dedicated to God. She studied Gita and practised meditation. She lived a simple and holy life, taught girls and worked for the welfare of the people particularly women.

BNC is committed to not only inspiring and enabling the students to achieve academic excellence for pursuing higher education but also preparing them for a wide variety of employment and self-employment opportunities. With a firm commitment towards meeting the higher education needs of girls in the rural and semi urban areas of South West Delhi, BNC has come a long way since its inception in 1993. BNC now offers graduation courses in arts, commerce and science disciplines to over 800 girl students. Funded and supported by the Government of Delhi, BNC is making important strides. Plans are under-way to give BNC a modern campus equipped with high quality infrastructure and hostel facilities.
