History

Swami Shraddhanand College was founded in 1967, as an Arya Samaj Institution, with its main objective being to provide higher education primarily to the Dev Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya’s rural population. Initially, the college had a humble start with two science courses and two humanities courses. With time, this institution has achieved meteoric heights of success and has established itself as one of the most successful colleges at Delhi University. Swami Shraddhanand College is now offering twenty-seven undergraduate and eight postgraduate programmes.

The college nurtures a diverse student-lecturer pool from different educational backgrounds to ensure the holistic growth of the students. The college also supports students through stipends, scholarships and other awards for meritorious and deserving students. Moreover, it offers support for placements, internships, foreign collaborations etc.Swami Shradhanand College is proud of its alumni who have made immense contributions nationally as well as globally by spreading education to all and the philosophy of non-violence preached by their role model – Swami Vivekananda.
