Our Genesis

Harish Chandra Post Graduate College, Varanasi is a Government aided college, and is one of the premier seat of learning of Eastern U.P under the auspices of 'Harish Chandra Vidyalaya Samiti, (a non profitable charitable institution registered under Indian Society Act 1860).  We boast a rich tradition of quality education since 1866 when the great Hindi Laureate 'Bhartendu Harish Chandra' laid the foundation of this noble institution with five students. A small cause taken up 140 years back is now a great mission. Ex-Prime Minister of India Late Lai Bahadur Shastri, Ex-Prime Minister of Nepal Late Visheshwar Prasad Koirala, Great Educationist and Ex, Chief Minister of U.P. Late Sampoornanand, Brigadier Usman are glimpses of few names of our alumni who have taken this mission to new heights.

In this era of paradigm shift when all the field of human endeavor are witnessing unprecedented change, education is no longer an exception. We are facing a time when education should be more profession oriented rather than knowledge oriented. Thus sensing the ever-growing need for competent and highly trained professionals endowed with rich business acumen, skills and aptitude to operate in the highly complex and fast-changing economic and industrial environment, the ‘Harish Chandra Vidyalaya Society’, established two non-profit educational centre, Faculty of Management & Technology offering regular full-time degree courses MBA, BBA & BCA and Institute of pharmacy offering regular full time degree course B.Pharm, in Varanasi with an avowed  mission of imparting highly innovative business management, pharmacy & technical education in the eastern part of India, which was expected to be the need of the hour, with the country's economy heading so fast towards globalization.
