Equitable Opportunity for the SEDGs
Sullamussalam Science College is deeply committed to the principle that access to quality higher education is a fundamental right, irrespective of socio-economic status, gender, caste, community, language, or physical ability. In alignment with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and the University Grants Commission (UGC) Guidelines, the college has constituted its cell for Equitable Opportunity Cell for Socio-Economically Disadvantaged Groups (SEDGs). The SEDGs Cell functions as a statutory and inclusive institutional mechanism to ensure equitable access, participation, and success of students belonging to socio-economically disadvantaged and underrepresented groups. These include Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), Other Backward Classes (OBC – Non-Creamy Layer), Economically Weaker Sections (EWS), minorities, women, first-generation learners, persons with disabilities, students from low-income families, and those from disadvantaged or remote locations.
