I am indeed honoured and it gives me great pleasure to present before you the annual report of our KME

Society’s G.M.Momin Women’s College for the year 2017-18.

The College today:

Our college was established with the motive of spreading awareness on higher education among women,

especially from the minority Muslim population, and the economically challenged sections of the society;

and facilitating the same through effective action. The college has grown from strength to strength over the

years. From a modest beginning in 1989 with just 94 students, the college today has 1650 women students

enrolled in various Under-Graduate and Post-Graduate programmes in the faculties of Arts, Science and

Commerce. Apart from conventional courses leading to graduation, the college also enrolls students for

BMS, B.Sc. (Biotechnology), B.Sc. (Inter-disciplinary Studies), B.Sc. (IT) and M.Sc. (IT) and Ph.D.

Vision: From here on we dream and plan to take our college to still greater heights of success and recognitions, without losing essence of the personal touch that we offer. We dream of the great multitude of schemes which when

put into operation at the appropriate times would elevate this sacred institution to loftier levels of learning, recognition

and understanding. I am proud to see and hear that this premier institute of higher learning, exclusively for women, has become a landmark of Bhiwandi and surrounding areas; having already carved out its niche at the National level,

our dream is to take this institution still higher to International levels of recognition. Let us work together for a better tomorrow.

`Concluding Remarks: Before closing this report I would like to thank the organizing committee for today’s function

and all those who have contributed towards success of the event. I am also ever thankful to my entire team of dedicated teachers, non teaching staff and students.

Allah Hafiz, May God bless you and Thank You very much for your kind attention.
