Principal's Desk

Education   is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think.” -Albert Einstein- .... Welcome to the website of AUL COLLGE, AUL, ODISHA As you navigate your way through the site discovering what we have to offer, you will find answers to the many preliminary questions you may have about our college. our academic programme and student life. As the Principal of the college I feel honored and privileged to be part of an educational institution where every stakeholder is a learner and every day is an opportunity to learn and discover. We look at ourselves as a community of learners, where everyone learns including our teachers, parents & staff. I believe in upholding high standards with an absolute commitment to strive to understand and improve the educational process, using team strategies, while wholly centering on student achievement. Our staff fruitfully employs two diverse strategies that are of Love and Logic to foster a positive learning environment for all our students. Love and Logic may seem like two contrasting forces. While love helps nurture trusting relationships, where students feel respected,

appreciated and loved by the teachers, logic helps develop in students personal responsibility, self control, good decision making skills self confidence, and character building with high moral values.Here the student’s learning involves and revolves around an effective partnership between home & college. We know the stronger the partnership is the more the students will benefit. Whilst we know that the information here will give you answers to some of your questions, we also know that learning is social, and in this context we encourage you to come and speak to us in person for a more detailed perspective. I look forward to working with you as we help create a college where parents are welcome at anytime, students are engaged in meaningful learning and the staff members are valued and appreciated for their efforts. Students here indeed blessed to find an opportunity to get education at one of the best colleges as per me which has the privilege of having a healthy, harmonious ambience and rich values which have played pivotal role in shaping the future of innumerable students. Our mission is to transform students into rational thinkers, competent workers, law abiding citizens and spiritually enlightened individuals. This is my firm belief that the rich values and traditions imbibed here would carry you to greater heights. It is a matter of pride that the college has been granted ‘B’ grade in NACC accreditation in 2016 in 2nd cycle. This could be possible with the blessings of Lord Jaggannath and hard work done by college staff and students under the guidance of visionary management.With proud legacy of 45 years, the college has excelled in every field. Students educated from the college have carved a niche for themselves in various fields at national and international levels. In this era of cut throat competition, it is of paramount importance to be equipped with appropriate knowledge, habits, attitudes and values leading to holistic development. Co-curricular and extra-curricular activities organised by various departments and societies facilitate the process of creative and critical thinking. They not only inculcate social and moral values, compassion for nature, pride for Indian culture and tradition and awareness for one’s rights and duties but also make students good human beings and confident leaders. I intently believe that this college would develop versatile personality in course of teaching and learning. It is now approaching 2 years since I began my stint as principal ,It has been an interesting period, full of new challenges and constant opportunities to learn and grow. There is optimism, energy, a growing sense of teamwork and camaraderie, and the foundation for a new phase of growth. This is accompanied by the sobering realisation that our aspirations are large, and we still have a long way to go. We have co-created a vision together, and taken it to our stakeholders. In doing so, we have learned more about how the vision needs to be adapted, and in some cases, the execution timed to ensure that our aspirations do not race ahead of our capabilities. We have taken initiatives that move the needle for faculty, staff and students. Faculty development was identified as a key priority at the retreat, and we have moved aggressively on this. With blessing and warm wishes.
