D.A.V. Centenary College, Faridabad, was established in 1985 under the auspices of the D.A.V. College Managing Committee, New Delhi, the renowned international charitable educational organization, to mark the 100th year of the phenomenal service rendered by it in the field of education. Into the third decade of its existence, D.A.V. Centenary College can proudly look back at the string of impressive achievements it has to its credit.
Be it the discipline and the general bearing of the students, be it the serious academic atmosphere prevalent on the campus and the enviable achievements I extracurricular activities, be it the competent and dedicated teaching and non-teaching staff or the very able, inspiring and dynamic helmsmanship of this institution, be it the social, intellectual and moral activism or the purposeful vocationalisation, professionalisation and rationalization of education with an eye on the future and in keeping with the rapidly changing socioeconomic ethos and profile of our country, this college stands out among the institutions of higher learning in the region.
But all this won’t have been possible without the dedicated service rendered by all the former Principals or without the huge fund of goodwill, unstinted cooperation and generous help received from the leading lights of the city, the people at large as well as the local administration, the state government, the university and the U.G.C. in nurturing this institution.
