PROFILE OF THE COLLEGE

The New College is a Government - Aided Muslim minority

College affiliated to the University of Madras. It was founded by

the Muslim Educational Association of Southern India

(MEASI). Since its founding in 1951 with about 200

intermediate course students, The New College has rigorously

upheld commitment to providing quality Higher Education to

the deserving students, especially from weaker sections of the

society. The college is currently run by a Managing Committee

of the MEASI under the Chairmanship of H. H. Nawab

Mohammed Abdul Ali, Prince of Arcot.

On our beautiful campus on Peter‟s Road, Royapettah,

Chennai, about 5000 students pursue their intellectual passion

through more than 35 academic programmes. The New college

campus also houses three other institutions run by its parent

body viz., MEASI Academy of Architecture, MEASI Institute of

Management and MEASI Institute of Information Technology.

Although the college and its allied institutions were

established with a view to educationally empower students

belonging to the Muslim community in Tamil Nadu, the college

has students and teachers from different communities and from

almost all parts of India. We have a few students from abroad as

well. There is provision for nearly 500 students to reside in the

College campus. The parent body of the college uses a major

share of income every year to give scholarships to students from

economically less privileged families. Although the

management of the college mainly depends on the contributions

generous philanthropists from the community for its working

capital, it has always strived to provide adequate infrastructure

facilities for the college to meet the challenges of the changing

times.

The college campus is equipped with all necessary facilities

for the all-round development of students including playground,

Hostel, fitness centre, Staff Lounge, Library, Canteen, Wi-Fi

internet connectivity and so on. Students‟ Union elections are

conducted every year to select student representatives and to

inculcate values of democracy in students. The college has two

active units of NCC. The units of NSS, Rotoract Club, Youth

Red Cross and other social service initiatives of the college won

several accolades from different agencies including Chennai city

police and health department for their services. There is a

mosque in the college campus which is open for all for worship

and meditation.

The Diamond Jubilee block, the latest addition to the

buildings in the campus, is mainly meant for setting up a Digital

Library and Resource Centre. The college has been securing

many major projects from the UGC and other agencies, and has

always endeavoured to produce quality research works.

Numerous research papers and books are published by our

faculty every year.

The New College became autonomous in the year 2007, and

it is recently re-accredited by NAAC with „A‟ Grade (3rd

Cycle). Autonomy has enhanced us to periodically update our

curriculum, and offer courses that are relevant to the times and

aimed at enhancing employability of students. During its

existence in the past 68 years, the college has produced about

75,000 graduates, many of whom have excelled in their chosen

fields. The college continues to extend its services to the nation

by means of adopting healthy practices and dedicated efforts to

ensure quality of education.

For the attention of parents

This is to bring to the kind attention of the parents / guardians that their responsibilities do not cease with the admission of their children / wards in The New College. While continuing to evince keen interest in the progress of their children / wards in studies and in their conduct in and outside the college, they should extend every co-operation to the authorities of the college, in the education and welfare of their children/wards. Mere admission of the college does not guarantee an automatic pass in the semester examinations. Students should realize that their academic achievements and employability depend on their attendance, conduct and good performance in CIA (Continuous Internal Assessment), Model and Semester Examination. They should actively participate in the co-curricular, extra-curricular and extension activities. Only sustained and systematic hard work will be the key to their continued progress and ultimate success. In this regard, you are advised to meet the Head of the Department and Principal regularly to ascertain the academic progress of your son / ward.
