Code of Conduct of Maharshi Vishwamitra Mahavidyalaya

Buxar owns its importance as a historical place almost exclusively to its colossal Vishvamitra Ashram, which still stands majestically. The traditional account of its holy antiquity as an important center of Vishnu and Shiva worship is embedded in Valmiki’s Ramayan, Ramcharitmanas, and some of the Puranas. This town, known as Siddhashram, witnessed a remarkable outburst of intellectual activities during the time of Vishvamitra in the Vedic period.

The new spirit of the modern age was remarkably illustrated by the life and thought of Sri Khakhi Baba (Saketpurbasi) and Sri Mauni Baba (Janakpurbasi). Undoubtedly, Khakhi Baba was a great social reformer, religious teacher, and a tower of philosophical wisdom in this region. He worked tirelessly for reforms in the educational field. Deeply religious but not theologically inclined, he laid great emphasis on modern education, including co-education. For this purpose, he founded Maharshi Vishwamitra Mahavidyalaya (M.V. College), Buxar on 11th June 1957.

Maharshi Vishwamitra Mahavidyalaya, Buxar is now a reputable institution with excellent administration, infrastructure, facilities, and academic activities in the Buxar district of Bihar. The college excels not only in academics but also in extracurricular activities and sports. Graduates from this institution have secured positions in top-level, reputed government, public sector, and private organizations.

The college is well-equipped with all necessary infrastructure and modern facilities to support academic studies and research, fostering an environment that promotes knowledge, innovation, and holistic student development.

The entire campus of M.V. College is spacious. The eastern part houses the main building of the college along with the various departments, separate common rooms for boys and girls, N.C.C. and N.S.S. offices, B.B.A/B.C.A. Centre, IGNOU office, the Principal's Chamber, Administrative Block, post-office, library, and the Prak Pariksha Prashikshan Kendra (Run by the Bihar Government).

The College imparts higher education in most of the subjects of Arts and Science. Every department has its own staff room. A prized possession of the college is the Auditorium cum Examination Hall with a capacity of 500 persons, named Manas Bhawan. The library of the college has a collection of over one lakh books with a spacious and well-furnished reading room.

The College is now entering its seventy-fifth year since its inception. It runs a U.G.C. Sponsored Remedial Coaching Programme for SC/ST and economically weaker students. It also conducts free classes for OBC students preparing for UGC-NET and general competitive examinations.

The IGNOU centre of the college, with a current strength of over 1500 students, has been functioning full-fledged since 1997. The Bachelor of Computer Applications (BCA) course has been introduced with new regulations from the academic session 2015-16. Of late, the College has become a proud member of INFLIBNET.
