Starting as a small institution in 1950 in
Narasaraopet with the noble aim of catering education to the then students of backward Palanadu, Telangana and to the Rayalaseema
areas, S.S.& N. College has become a full fledged degree college comprising an
area within the radius of 34 acres. As an affiliating college first to the
Andhra University and later to Acharya Nagarjuna University it has achieved tremendous progress through
Quantitative Expansion and Qualitative Improvements on various academic fronts.
The college, an 'Abode of Learning' at present offers P.G. Education
courses are M.B.A., M.C.A. and M.Sc Chemistry
respectively. Keeping abreast of the recent developments and changes in the
fields of Science, Bio-Technology was introduced in Under Graduate Level.
The former students of the N.C.C. wing of the
college are at present in high positions. The N.S.S. wing of the college
established in 1955 has made a quantum leap in enlisting hundreds of students
organizing four units registering significant growth and achievement by way of
creating awareness on health and hygiene, literacy, communal well being and
harmony. The college has been bringing many laurels in state and national levels
under the able guidance of the former and present directors of physical
education. The college Library has over 40,000 books national and international
journals and is planning to reprographic facilities and access to the internet.
The college hostel is equipped with magnificient buildings. It has been
accommodating nearly 600 students per year.
For me, Education does not mean providing answers. It means equipping the pupil with the means to find the answers for himself and within himself. Education empowers students to discover themselves – who they are as people. Within each student is a doctor, an engineer, a teacher, a social activist, a sports person, an environmentalist, a poet, an author or an economist. The teachers support them in channelizing resources vis-à-vis their dreams thus, sustainably generating civilized and productive human capital for serving our motherland in line with the DPS Society’s motto “Service Before Self”.
