Deshbandhu College was established in 1952 by the Ministry of Rehabilitation, Government of India, in the memory of Late Lala Deshbandhu Gupta, a patriot who had dedicated his life to the national freedom struggle. It became a constituent college of the University of Delhi in 1958. Originally run by the Ministry of Education as a men's college, it has been maintained by the University of Delhi since 1972. In 1994 it opened its doors to women students too.
Located in Kalkaji in South Delhi, Deshbandhu College (Evening) offers degree courses in Commerce and Humanities.It is the third largest college for Commerce education in Delhi University. It has a highly qualified and experienced faculty many of whom are also engaged in post gradutate teaching at the university. A number of our teachers have original, published academic and creative work, including journal and other print media articles and educational film making, to their credit.
The college has a well stocked library with over 45,000 books including the latest publications in all the subjects taught in the College. This, together with a state-of-the-art computer lab, offers students access to new horizons of learning.
A number of academic prizes and scholarships are offered to meritorious students. Financial assistance, in the form of fee concession, is given to deserving and needy students.
Our large playground and good facilities for sports have helped to maintain a tradition of excellence in sports. Our sportspersons have won laurels at the university, Delhi state and national levels.
The college campus is a lively hub of both academic and co-curricular activities which are meant to nurture the all-round development of the students. Apart from the annual festival - Josh - we also have other cultural programmes, workshops, seminars, debates, lectures and educational trips. The much-feted college theatre group - Jazba, our NSS unit and Eco Club also offer students further opportunity to widen their horizons.
Finally, a word about placements. Our college Placement Cell, together with Delhi University's Central Placement Cell, facilitates campus recruitment of final-year students.
The students of the college are its assets, giving it strength and character. We welcome students with the hope that they will do us proud.
