The only institution of higher education in Na-Ali Dhekiajuli, Jorhat — provincialised by the Government of Assam and affiliated to Dibrugarh University since 1986.
The college is located at Na-Ali Dhekiajuli, about 12 kilometers away from Jorhat district Headquarter. It is the only higher educational institution in Dhekiajuli, Jorhat — a place having its own historical importance from Ahom rule onwards.
With an ideal academic atmosphere, the college is earning a great reputation amongst the colleges affiliated to Dibrugarh University. Besides the serene academic ambience, the general environment of the college is very congenial for the students, as it is situated far away from the hustle and bustle of city crowds and the din of modern mechanized transport.
Dr. Nobin Bordoloi College occupies a very important place in the academic domain of Jorhat district. Established in the year 1986 by the sincerest initiatives of a good number of benevolent public and academicians, and provincialised by Government of Assam Order No. AHE/587/2013/9 dated 21st May 2014, the College was initially functioning its activities in Titaram Bordoloi Boy's High School premises under the Principalship of Late Prafulla Ch. Mahanta, the then Headmaster of the School, from 1986 to 1991.
The college acquired its own land when a few generous and philanthropic donors — Late Bhava Ch. Borboruah, Late Kamal Ch. Bordoloi, Late Dr. Nobin Ch. Bordoloi, Late Premadhar Saikia, Late Loknath Gogoi, Premoda Borah, Mr. Bhogeswar Saikia, Mr. Nityananda Bordoloi, Late Premkanta Borah and Bandana Borah — offered their valuable lands in which the college is now situated. The college has been named after Dr. Nobin Bordoloi 'Samaj Ratna', a social worker of repute and litterateur who hails from this locality. The people of the locality extended their sincere co-operation towards this magnanimous act initiated by these stalwarts.
Presently, the college offers Arts up to the degree level with majors in Assamese, Economics, Education, English, Geography, History, Political Science and Sociology. In addition to the Arts stream, Krishna Kanta Handique Open University has approved a study centre at this college for learners pursuing Open & Distance Learning programmes.
The college aims at providing quality education to all sections of society, especially to the socially and economically underprivileged. The college also envisages creating a class of socially committed and virtually responsible citizens instead of producing mere job seekers — motivating students to be self dependent and efficient, educating them on the basis of the updated vision of the modern curriculum, and bringing out leadership qualities among them to make them agents of social change.
