The Mission of Damdama College has primarily been to educate students in the first degree program in Arts under the Gauhati University. To this end, it has constructed classrooms, library, gymnasium, boys and girls common room and rest rooms, teacher’s common room etc. Curriculum planning at an institutional level has been largely eschewed because of the institutions affiliate status. Nonetheless, it has created systems where the curriculum as designed by the University can be executed to the best extent possible. Student Progression has been conceptualized through teaching learning process, involvement of students both in academics and extracurricular activities. To ensure that such process take place seamlessly, ICT facilities (at a limited scale) has also been created. Research at an institutional level has been planned and journals have been created. The College has strived to engage with local communities through dispersal of funds to skilled, yet economically dependent women. Memorandum of Understandings (MOU) has been established with institutions of national and regional importance.
