The College entered into new era of academic studies by introducing Bachelors’ degree in Business Administration from 2008, affiliated to Gauhati University. Subsequent addition was in the form of introducing Bachelors’ programme in Mass Communication and Journalism under the Career Oriented Programme of UGC in the year 2009 with formal permission and affiliation of Gauhati University. The year 2008 also became remarkable for the College when it signed the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with IGNOU and became the Partner Institute under Convergence Scheme. A series of programmes and courses of distance learning were introduced under the scheme in this campus converging the conventional, and distance modes of teaching-learning. However, the withdrawal of convergence scheme by the parent organization led to the end of Partnership. Moreover, a fine replacement has been made with rapid expansion of IDOL Study Centre in the College introducing classes for a series of Master Degree Programmes for drop-out students. Contact classes and counseling sessions are regularly organized for the enrolled students under distance mode.
