MESSAGES

GGDSD College, Kheri Gurna is based on a strong foundation and vision of creating an institute where academics plays a crucial role in providing a strong foundation of knowledge that encourages students to think and apply themselves more deeply, so every effort is made to stimulate intensive and critical thinking.

We are striving to build a vibrant and dynamic academic atmosphere where an innovative ecosystem and a multidisciplinary approach combining theory and practice in pedagogy are being etched strongly into the ethos of the college. The focus is not only on 'what is taught ' but also the 'way it is taught' with the objective to develop and leverage the intellectual, emotional, and pragmatic capabilities of students. We also encourage a free and spirited exchange of ideas to celebrate diversity while ensuring inclusivity.

The aim is to make education and learning an enriching, fulfilling, and enjoyable experience where the potential of each student is brought to the fore during this journey. We believe that the location of the college helps students break away from the regular mould and creates an environment that becomes a concentrated nucleus that encourages growth.

Given the tectonic shifts that have happened in the last few years, we want to equip our students with the fortitude and resilience to be nimble and adapt to winning in an unpredictable world. And more importantly, to be guided by the values of a humanistic ethos and virtues of incorruptibility and honesty.

We are backed by the strength of the GGDSD College Society in Chandigarh, which is built on an altruistic foundation dedicated to serving humanity through the field of education with a profound respect for the environment and our surroundings. This college also embraces the same values and considers education a sacred field, where every single faculty, staff, and management committee member imbibes and imparts a socially responsible attitude to life.

So, come join us and be part of this community that can inspire change in this world by setting an example.
