Dear Student-teachers,
Welcome to Unity College of Teacher Education (UCTE).
You are now embarking on a journey that will forever change the course of your life. B.Ed. programme is a progression in Higher Education which is about taking a qualitative leap into mature thinking, responsible conduct, and taking charge of one’s career and life ahead. It is a leap and a stepping-stone into a path of lifelong learning and enriched experiences. As the Education Commission in 1964 stated, “The destiny of India is being shaped in her classrooms”, and we the UCTE, have made a commitment to guide and mould you – the teachers of tomorrow that will shape the future of our country.
In the next two years that you will spend here, it will be our endeavor to guide you and usher you in this quest, and ensure favorable outcomes as you step into this path.
Education plays a key role in the overall development of the society. The role of education is denitely not limited to giving and grasping knowledge and theory. The true goal of education transcends beyond awarding degrees and certicates to the learners. UCTE not only focuses on the theoretical curriculum, but also the development of a student’s personality, extra-curricular activities, and overall perspective. I firmly believe that UCTE is more than just a PLACE to learn as it gives you the CHANCE to grow by equipping you with everything you need to achieve excellence.
You will be the first batch of the new syllabus structured under the Department of Teacher Education, Nagaland University. Managing transition, however, is not easy. To facilitate this transition further, we have programme with a view to attending to your academic, extra-curricular activity-related needs and requirements. We too are committed and dedicated to adapting to this modication. UCTE has established a reputation for academic and holistic excellence through the hard work of our dedicated and qualied teaching faculties, management, and supporting staff. The college has acquired good infrastructure and resources and our faculties are trained so that the best education is ensured for you. You shall benet from all the good practices that have led us to such heights and I am condent that all of you will play an instrumental role in attaining greater heights. May you have a memorable and fullled stay at the college.
