Organization Profile: Cotton University is a premier institute of higher learning in Assam. Previously called Cotton College, Sir Henry Stedman Cotton, the Chief Commissioner of the former British colony of Assam, founded the institution in 1901. In 1948, it joined Gauhati University as a constituent institution. The institution served as the epicenter of the state’s numerous literary and cultural events that solidified Assam’s position as an essential part of India, in addition to serving as the center of the liberation movement. In 2011 the Cotton College State University was established vide an Act of the Government of Assam, with the college as a constituent. Cotton University came into being in 2017 via The Cotton University Act, 2017 that enabled the unification of Cotton College State University and Cotton College.

An Act of the Assamese Government established Cotton College State University (Act XIX of 2011). The governor of Assam ratified this legislation on September 3, 2011, and Prof. Dhrubajyoti Saikia, who teaches at the National Centre for Radio Astrophysics (NCRA) and the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), was appointed as the university’s first vice chancellor. Subsequently, on March 2, 2017, the Assam Legislative Assembly passed a measure known as The Cotton University Act, 2017, which fully combined the University and the College. The university was renamed Cotton University upon enforcement. By ordinance, the Governor of Assam, Banwarilal Purohit became the Chancellor, who appointed Prof. Bhabesh Chandra Goswami as the Vice Chancellor in July 2017
