History

Champhai College was initially affiliated to Gauhati University, then to North Eastern Hill University in 1973. From 2 July 2001, upon the creation of the Mizoram University that came up in Aizawl, the affiliation was directly transferred to the new university. In 1978 the college attained the status of deficit grants-in-aid College under Mizoram Government. The college started degree courses in science in 1997. The pre-university course that was introduced in 1995 has now been delinked and the institute has only under-graduate programmes. The college received UGC recognition under 2f and 12B in 1987.

Govt Champhai College is devoted to excellence in teaching, learning, and to developing leaders in many disciplines who make a difference. The mission of “Govt. Champhai College” is to evolve, synthesize, and spread the power of knowledge to arm the new millennium through world-class initiatives and academic practices that focus on the overall development of students.

Accreditation

NAAC (National Accreditation and Assessment Council), a body under an umbrella of UGC, has sent peer team on March 23, 2004, to inspect the college under a 9-point scale grading system, in which the college secured 70-75 marks to attain a grade “B”, to become one of the lesser colleges in India which can have such status. The accreditation is valid for 5 years, extendable to 2 years. Such a feat was achieved through the guidance of the then principal Shri V. Suakbuanga and IQAC Coordinator, Shri C. Lalsiamthanga (who is now Asso. Professor), with utmost commitment and cooperation from all the staff of the college. Govt Champhai College was re-accredited B++ Grade by NAAC[3] in 2016, actually the best among Mizoram Colleges. We are thrilled to be joining such a welcoming, vibrant, and positive community, and we look forward to working with staff, parents and students to forward the values and goals that are important to us all.
