DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH
The Department of English started functioning in 1998 with the establishment of the
Kokrajhar campus of Gauhati University for the academic upliftment of the people of lower
Assam. In 2001, Gauhati University introduced a semester system replacing the traditional
system of the syllabus, which had been continuing for a long time.
Apart from teaching and research on the English language and literature, English
Department has been striving to give students and researchers interdisciplinary knowledge
and outlook, keeping in view the global academic demand and pursuit. The Department
engages students in interpreting literature in the light of theories prevalent in the leading
universities of the world and promotes research activities. Since the Department is committed
to the development of the region, besides making the students sensible in the field of literature
and culture and making them fit for the job market or making them capable of picking up the
right career after University education, it also gives them new insight to interpret their
literature and culture which may occupy a significant position in World Literature. Hence,
English Department, in its present perspective, analyses Indian studies from different angles
of global thought and scholarship. MA (English) syllabus of Bodoland University is a well
designed, innovative and compact course that covers a vast area ranging from British
literature, European Literature, American Literature, African Literature, Indian Literature, to
emerging humanities like Culture Studies, Media Studies, Gender Studies, Northeast Writings
in English, Women’s Writing, Translation Studies, Linguistics and Hypertext, etc. The Ph.D
syllabi are also based on the pursuit and trend of global academic research leading to free
articulation and thinking.
VISION
The Department moves forward with the conviction that the discipline is not just for the
privileged section with a bureaucratic bent of mind; it instead extends its patronage to all the
English knowing people in a global atmosphere irrespective of caste, creed, and religion. In
Bodoland University, it acts as an interpreter, promoter and transformer; all rolled in one.
MISSION
❖ To encourage unity and diversity at a time when the world is collapsing because of
ideological conflict
❖ The Department creates an atmosphere of amity and fellow-feeling by pursuing
comparative literature and translational theories and practices, film and media research
❖ The department also aims at highlighting literature and culture during the Pandemic

DEPARTMENT OF GEOGRAPHY
Geography is a diverse discipline that bridges the arts and social and natural sciences,
providing a comprehensive education that discusses pressing issues including environmental
change, regional and global inequalities and the transmutation of global economy and culture.
Geography studies the places and the relationships between people and their environments.
Geographers explore both the physical properties of Earth's surface and the human societies
spread across it. By studying Geography, students obtain a unified view of the rapidly-
changing world and how society influences and are influenced by it. The Bodoland University
Geography focuses on the interrelationship between the physical and human environment.
The Department was established under the faculty of Environment Studies in August 2015, is
committed to delivering its curriculum to resume education for the refurbishment of our
physical and social environment. Thus, anybody who wants a career that takes him outside the
walls of an office or solves global problems should consider studying geography. The degrees
in geography offer concentrations to prepare graduates for multiple career paths.
VISION
To be a globally known academic school for our innovative, cutting-edge research in a human
and natural system that defines the evolving discipline to answer the fundamental questions of
global importance through innovative, engaged and relevant teaching and research
MISSION
❖ To disseminate geographical knowledge through mentorship model to graduate masters,
M.Phil. and doctoral students to meet the challenges associated with the continuing
evolution of geographic science and reach the highest international standards
❖ To provide a learning environment that nourishes knowledge, skills and wisdom with
lively instructional experiences
PROGRAMMES OFFERED
MA / M.Sc in Geography
In the Master degree course, students are introduced to a spectrum of geographical topics and
Remote Sensing and GIS in the first two semesters that are followed up in more detail in the
final year. Students must perform 92 credits to earn a master degree in Geography. With full-
time enrolment, students can become a post-graduate in two years.
1) Geomorphology (landscapes, bodies of water and geomorphic processes, and human
impact on geographic elements).
2) Population Geography (humanistic nature of the geographical world, classificatory nature
of human geographical work).
52
FIELDWORK OPPORTUNITIES
In teaching Geography, we emphasize the importance of fieldwork since we believe there is
no substitute for teaching subjects first-hand. Thus, in the second semester, students take part
in a week-long field course within the country. In the final semester, students will do
independent research in the field and submit a dissertation for evaluation.
Ph.D PROGRAMME
The Department has opened up the opportunity for research by introducing Ph.D in 2019.
With the present faculty position, Geography of Bodoland University endeavours to study the
multifaceted predicament and concerns related to the environment and society faced by the
region. Most of us do research that addresses the core concerns of environmental and social
issues. We seek to understand inequalities within and across the country and the world and
understand how the study of the environment and social issues can help eliminate constraints
of resource development and social well-being for all protecting our ecosystems.

Initiated in 2013-14 as Diploma in Bamboo Technology course under the aegis of Department
of Biotechnology, Bodoland University was sponsored by the Agriculture Department,
Bodoland Territorial Council Secretariat, Bodofa Nwgwr, Kokrajhar and National Mission on
Bamboo Applications, New Delhi. It was upgraded to the “Centre for Bamboo Studies” in
2017 with its independent identity.
Bamboo is an important natural, renewable livelihood resource in Bodoland Territorial
Council, which grows in about one-third of natural forest as pure and mixed are cultivated on
homestead & non-forest land. Bamboo production in the Bodoland Territorial Region is quite
low. There is a need to enhance it through scientific Cultivation of suitable species and
improved management of bamboo-based non-forest or forest.
Since bamboo is the primary source of livelihood for rural people of this region, it is,
therefore, the need of the hour to make the people aware of the proper use and scope of
Bamboo in Bodoland. The course is very much important for Bodoland Territorial Council
because it provides them in-depth knowledge in various aspects of bamboos.
VISION
The primary aim of the course is to motivate students for self-employment, as well as to carry
out extensive research in various aspects of bamboo with particular emphasis on bamboo
cultivation and germplasm conservation.
MISSION
❖ Provide a unique opportunity to the youngsters for a career in one of the green gold
industrial processing sectors, viz. bamboo-based industry, responsible for processing
bamboo and other renewable fibre materials to meet certain vital human needs in a most
environment-friendly manner.
❖ It will facilitate evolving strategies for augmenting production, application of relevant
technologies and adaptation to the global market.

CENTRE FOR BODO STUDIES
The “CENTRE FOR BODO STUDIES (CBS)” started functioning in 2014 based on the
Memorandum of Settlement of Bodo Accord, 2003. Bodoland University designed the centre
to facilitate scholars, thinkers and interested individuals in augmenting a new study approach
on the Bodo Ethnic Group of North East India with reference to national and international
viewpoints. The primary concept of the centre is to contribute to the enormity of Indian
diversity in nation-building approaches. Bodoland University envisioned building Bodo
language and culture and antiquity an entity of the great Indian culture. Now, the centre has
become a part of the University with substantial autonomy to function and solitary identity as
“Centre,” to run by this Regulation. The Centre for Bodo Studies supports three types of
scholars to undertake their studies. Firstly, the research scholars who want to undertake their
studies on the related premise of Language, Culture and Antiquity of the Bodos can be
registered member scholars of the Centre. Secondly, the writers or thinkers who have no
requisite degrees to carry out research work but having good studies and knowledge on the
area can also register as member scholars. Thirdly, who are energized to study various aspects
of the Bodos methodically or want to publish their research works in an organized way can
also become member scholar of the Centre. The Centre would extend memberships with
available sources and guidance to find the goal in these three categories of scholars and
learners. The centre also organizes seminar, workshop, training on various knowledge and
skill of Bodo group and share their research findings with the nation and abroad.
BACKGROUND
The Bodo Accord, signed between the Government of India, the Government of Assam and
under the Bodo leaders, has recommended establishing a Centre / Institute for research,
development and spreading of the Bodo language. It has been mentioned in the Sl. No. 1 of
the Annexure-4 of the Bodo Accord, 2003.
The establishment of a Centre for Bodo Studies in the Kokrajhar Campus of Gauhati
University is a long-cherished desire of the Bodo people, intellectuals, writers, artists, social
activists, journalists, social workers and scholars of this region. The project has a special
significance after the signing of the Bodo Accord, which brings these aboriginal people under
the sixth schedule of the Indian Constitution for their protection and development and the
Bodo Language under the Eight scheduled for upholding and promotion of the Bodo
language, culture and arts.
In 2000, the Educational Consultant India Limited, a Govt. of India Enterprise, which
was deputed by the MHRD, Govt. of India, to study the feasibility of an autonomous
University at Kokrajhar had suggested setting up a Centre for Bodo Studies at University
Campus, Kokrajhar with its up-gradation to a full-fledged University. The Bodo language,
literature, Culture and folklore, despite their richness, remain unexposed due to the lack of the
patronage of the government for their exploration. The Bodos have developed literature with
eminent playwrights, novelists and short story writers among them. Nevertheless, the Bodo
language and literature investigations or methodical research are yet to be done due to the lack
of proper facilities and institutional support.
81
The Bodoland University, which conducts a Master Degree course and research works,
cannot cover the entire aspects of the Bodos like history, socio-economy, culture, behaviour,
language, religion etc. Many of these fields are still virgin and need to be exploited
scientifically. So, there was enough potentiality for running a Centre for Bodo Studies at the
university level to cater for the need of the scholars of different disciplines. The establishment
of a Study Centre at Bodoland University is very fruitful as its catchment area cover entire
North East India, West Bengal and neighbouring countries like Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan,
who have had close contact with the Bodos since time immemorial and will give scope for
studying inter-state culture, language and literature. The growth of Bodo language, literature
and culture in tune with the development of mainstream India will help instil national feeling,
moral responsibilities among the Bodos and promote fellow feeling in the region.
VISION
Centre for Bodo Studies (CBS) has envisioned reconstructing the endangered Bodo culture,
language and antiquity, which was about to disappear amid the globalization process. The
Bodo language and culture need to be developed suitably to cope with the other language and
cultures of the country. India being a multi-cultural and multi-lingual nation, offers scope for
self-development and self-identity to all small communities. The mission of the Centre shall
be to carry out extensive study in organized ways for creating and enhancing the domain of
fundamental knowledge with new tools and methods in a scientific way through the quality
study, research, consultancy, learning & teaching, documentation, archiving and digitization,
exchanging ideas of culture, language, racial identity and so forth. Centre for Bodo Studies
(CBS) is an interdisciplinary concept in its realm with a quest for proper knowledge and
dissemination. It intends to become a pioneering force in developing academic potential
among its ethnic group in the region. It shall have facilities and provision for extension and
exchange of knowledge and studies with other like-minded institutions of India and abroad.
MISSION
❖ To preserve documents, traditional sculpture, painting and statues etc.
❖ To organize lectures/workshops/training on the various aspects of language, culture and
history of the Bodos.
❖ To drive for enlisting members scholars for the centre from writers, scholars and learners.
❖ To organize training and research on Bodo art and the development of practical skills.
❖ To carry out a comparative study on the Bodos and allied groups.
PROGRAMME OFFERED
1. Certificate Course in Bodo (One Semester)
The course of the Bodo language acquisition is entitled “Certificate Course in Bodo
Language”. The course aims for those who cannot speak or write Bodo Language. This is a
preliminary course that aims to acquire the skill of speaking to be used in various contexts of
discourses, and aims to enhance the skill of writing the language in a simple and easy method.
Also, it aims at developing competency in translation from other languages into Bodo & vice
versa.

TECHNOLOGY INCUBATION CENTRE
www.ticdbtbu.com
With the alarming growth of the global population, the proportionate growth of food and
nutrition is always a prime concern. The issue becomes even grimmer with the depletion of
potent agricultural land and other resources. One more issue that started finding importance
among discussion of different fora is solid waste management, including agricultural waste.
Mushroom cultivation is found to be such as bolete, puffball, stinkhorn, and morel.
The act of consuming mushrooms (mycophagy) dates back to ancient times. Edible
mushrooms can appear either below ground (hypogeous) or above ground (epigeous) &
edibility may be defined by criteria that include the absence of poisonous effects on humans
and desirable taste and aroma. A popular answer to all the above concerns stands as quality
food requires less land and can be a tool to manage agricultural waste. Diversification in any
farming system imparts sustainability. Mushrooms are one such component that not only
imparts diversification but also help in addressing the problems of quality food, health, and
environmental sustainability. Consumption of mushrooms on a daily basis boosts the health of
the consumer.
The attributes are good for the heart (no cholesterol), low-calorie food (good for
diabetic patients), prevents cancer (especially prostate and breast cancer by arresting the
action of 5-alpha reductase and aromatase, these enzymes are responsible for the growth of
cancerous tumor), anti-ageing property (the polysaccharide from Mushroom are potent
scavengers of superoxide free radical), regulates the digestive system, strengthen immunity.
Mushroom like Trametes versilcolor synthesizes Polysaccharide-K (Kresin), which is a
leading anti-cancer drug. Mushroom is the fruiting body of fungi visible outside and can be
seen by the naked eye. Biologically, Mushroom describes various gilled fungi, with or without
stems, and the term is used even more generally to describe both the fleshy fruiting bodies and
leathery fruiting bodies. Morphology deviating from the standard usually has more specific
names such as bolete, puffball, stinkhorn and morel.
GENESIS OF THE WORK

Mushroom, a low-cost health food nutraceutical in nature having massive agro-waste
conversion ability, highest producer of protein per unit area & time, is highly suitable as a tool
for developing rural entrepreneurship and sustainable development in the mountains. Further,
Bodoland Territorial Area District (BTAD, 6th Schedule Area) and North Eastern States
(Eastern Himalayan States) make mushroom cultivation highly suitable and feasible through a
series of easily understandable entrepreneurship & skill development training for the purpose.
Further, virtues like minimal resource requirement, meagre capital investment, less water
requirement, less land requirement, wide availability of organic agro waste, and potential
domestic and international market make mushroom cultivation venture a model tool for stand-
up India & start-up India concept. Mycophagy is a common practice in tribal communities.
Most of the people and rural youth of BTAD are from tribal & other communities and are
mostly belong to economically backward families (BPL) who have started emerging as
potential Indian youth despite having a recent hard past. Department of Biotechnology,

PADMASHREE MODARAM BRAHMA
CENTRAL LIBRARY
Padmashree Madaram Brahma Central Library (PMBCL) is the liveliest place on the campus
providing a safe, comfortable and friendly environment that enables learning and
advancement of knowledge and promotes discovery and scholarship. The mission of the
library is to facilitate the creation of new knowledge through the acquisition, organization and
dissemination of knowledge resources along with providing value-added services. The library
was established in 2001 in a small room as a part of Gauhati University, Kokrajhar Campus.
The library was upgraded in 2009 as a full-fledged University library and the up-gradation of
Gauhati University, Kokrajhar campus into a full-fledged state University in the name and
style of Bodoland University. Since then, the library of Bodoland University has been known
as Bodoland University Central Library. The library was confined in a single room till 2013,
and on 12th August 2013, Library was shifted to a multi-storeyed separate building. Despite
financial hardship, the library has been trying its best to develop modern library services to
provide sufficient knowledge resources to the University's academic community effectively.
In 2015, the Central Library was named after a renowned bureaucrat, poet and dramatist,
Padmashree Madaram Brahma. Since then, the Central Library of Bodoland University has
been renamed as “Padmashree Madaram Brahma Central Library”.
KOHA has been installed as Integrated Library Management Software (ILMS) to
manage and organise library systems. At present, the barcode-based circulation system, i.e.
issue return of the books, is being practised. The library holds more than 24000 print books,
more than 1600 E-Journals, JSTOR and other resources like M.Phil. & Ph.D Dissertation,
Project work reports etc.
The library has a Digital Library section having 17 dedicated Personal Computers
fully with high-speed internet connectivity, enabling library users to access various subscribed
resources and browse the world of the web in search of various resources. With the
implementation of Web-OPAC, the holdings of the library can be viewed by anybody from
anywhere in the world 24×7.
PMBCL BU has successfully implemented the Remote Access Platform called
Remotexs to enable library users to access subscribed E-Resources from the comfort of their
places wherever they go at any time, i.e., 24×7. PMBCL has also successfully implemented its
digital repository in the name and style of Bodoland University Digital Library using DSpace
software. This library will play a vital role in building an institutional repository of various
resources of the University like Old Question papers, Thesis & Dissertations, Annual Reports,
policy documents, etc., in electronic format, which will be accessible by anybody at anytime
from anywhere in the world.
A dedicated and independent dynamic website has been designed and launched to
provide single stop access to all the above portals/platforms. The library is also involved in
conducting various programmes like user awareness, workshops, seminars, conferences, book
exhibitions, career awareness, etc., in contributing to the University's academic and general
activities.

I. ESTABLISHING THE CENTRAL LIBRARY
The first step towards establishing the library was taken in 2009 with a single room in the old
administrative building. The library worked without library staff member/s for about4 years.
The formal functioning of the library started in May 2013 with the joining of one library
professionals and one Library Assistant. In August 2013, the Central Library was shifted to its
present location with about 9254 sq. ft floor space.
The library has implemented Library management System Software SOUL2.0 with a
barcode-based circulation system. The issue/return of the books is now being converted into
an automated system. The university's academic community is provided with necessary
reference/information services based on their specific need. In addition, the library extends
reference and internet services to the local academic and civil society members.
University is already connected with DeLnet, through which the academic community
of the University can access online resources extended by these consortia. Internet facility is
also provided in the library through the 1gbps NKN line. In addition to the online resources
available through these consortia, University has also taken an initiative to procure/subscribed
selective new resources in 2017. Users can selectively photocopy the required books/journals
articles, etc., through an outsourced photocopy centre outside the Central Library.

NATIONAL SERVICE SCHEME (NSS)
The NSS Cell of Bodoland University organized a four-day programme from 21st-24th June
2021to observe the International Yoga Day in collaboration with the Art of Living
Foundation. The International Day of Yoga is observed on 21st June 2021, since its inception
in the United Nations General Assembly in 2015. With the theme of the event, which was,
“BE WITH YOGA, BE AT HOME” a webinar was conducted to observe the International
Day of Yoga where esteemed guests, faculties from different colleges, members of the NSS
units were present along with the Vice-Chancellor and faculty members of the university. The
webinar began with the welcome speech by Prof Sujit Deka at 9:30 am. Prof Deka is the
programme coordinator of the NSS Cell, Bodoland University, and the HoD of Geography.
Prof. Deka warmly welcomed all the participants with his humble and kind words, followed
by the inaugural speech by the honourable Vice-Chancellor of Bodoland University, Prof.
Laishram Ladu Singh.
111
Prof Singh is an eminent personality in population statistics and a man with vast knowledge
and experience. He shared his urge for the introduction of yoga in all educational institutions
for its numerous benefits. After the inauguration of the programme, a yoga session was
conducted, which was led by Mr. M. Rajaque Rahman. Mr Rahman is a senior faculty in the
Art of Living Foundation. The Art of Living Foundation is an educational and humanitarian
NGO that offers breathing techniques, meditation, and yoga programmes. Mr Rahman has
been an editor with top publications such as The Economic Times, Bengaluru, India and The
Business Today in Muscat, Oman. He has also been the media coordinator of the Art of
Living from 2005-2008. Mr Rahman commits to spreading the essence and wisdom of yoga,
meditation and Indian spirituality to all sections. Mr. Rajaque Rahman shared his immense
knowledge on yoga and its benefits and the science of how yoga plays its role in protecting
the COVID-19. In his yoga session, a great orator and a better yoga teacher, Mr Rahman,
showed some basic and easy but extremely important yoga steps that one can practice while
being seated. He patiently and kindly taught all the steps and explained the science behind it
whilst stating their advantages. He gave special attention to the students and displayed the
yoga steps that help release stress and fatigue with increased focus and concentration.
YOGA WITH M RAJAQUE RAHMAN

Scientific researchers have proved that yoga reduces stress and tension and increase physical
and mental health. With COVID-19 taking a toll on everyone’s mental and physical health,
this year, the International Yoga Day focuses on the wellbeing of society while it is still
recovering from the impact of COVID-19. Mr Rahman after an hour of yoga session, spared
some of his precious time and answered the questions patiently that were raised by the
audience. All the participants in the webinar were greatly benefitted and they expressed their
gratitude to him.
After the interactive session, it was followed by the vote of thanks which Mr Solomon Islary,
Asstt, gave. Prof. of the Department of Political Science and the programme officer of the
NSS Cell, Bodoland University. He thanked all the dignitaries present in the event and the
technical coordinator Dr. Manoj Deka and Mr Bhargab Jyoti Kachari. They were instrumental
in the smooth conduction of the programme. Mr Islary also thanked the NSS programme
coordinator and its members for taking this initiative to observe Yoga Day while being at
112
home. Lastly, he conveyed his gratitude to all the participants present in the webinar for their
support and cooperation.
For the next three days (22nd,23rd and 24th June), a virtual yoga session led by Mr M. Rajaque
Rahman was conducted every morning at 9:30 hours, attended by a large audience. The four
days programme held by the NSS Cell, Bodoland University, has been a great success. In
these desperate times where we are demanded to stay indoors, virtual events can prove to be
very beneficial.
