Colleges in Sikkim


Today Sikkim is turning out to be one of the major educational hub though the focus is more on catering to the local requirements of the state. The young boys and girls after completing their higher secondary education need to travel to other states for higher education facilities and the focus of the government is to restrict their migration by enhancing the facilities and the number of colleges within the state in which they are successful, slowly but steadily. A sign of this development is the establishment of the Sikkim University which began its operations in 2008. The medium of instruction in most of the schools and Colleges in Sikkim is in English.
