Doon College of Education (DCE), Saharanpur, is a co-educational private teacher education institution established in 2003 under the Dr. Rajendra Prasad Memorial Educational Society. Located on NH-72-A, Delhi-Dehradun Road, at Village Sunderpur, Tehsil Behat, Saharanpur, the college is an integral part of the renowned Doon Group of Colleges — one of the most prominent multi-disciplinary educational groups in the Saharanpur region of Uttar Pradesh. The institution is recognised by the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE), New Delhi, the apex statutory body governing teacher education in India, and is affiliated to Lucknow University, Lucknow. The Doon Group of Colleges, under the Dr. Rajendra Prasad Memorial Educational Society, was established in 2002 with a vision to create knowledge centres of excellence in education, training, research, and consultancy across various disciplines. Doon College of Education was founded as part of this vision, with a focused mandate to prepare professionally competent, ethically grounded, and pedagogy-driven teachers for India's rapidly evolving school education sector. The college offers four NCTE-approved teacher education programmes: Bachelor of Education (B.Ed), Bachelor of Physical Education (B.P.Ed), Master of Education (M.Ed), and Master of Physical Education (M.P.Ed). These programmes collectively cater to aspiring teachers seeking to enter both general and physical education streams at various levels of the school system. The combined approved intake across these four programmes — 100 seats for B.Ed, 100 for B.P.Ed, 50 for M.Ed, and 40 for M.P.Ed — reflects the institution's scale and commitment to teacher preparation. The college spreads over approximately 11 acres of land, providing a spacious and conducive campus environment for academic and extracurricular activities. The campus has been thoughtfully designed to include all facilities within its premises. The main campus houses the teaching departments, a well-stocked central library equipped with e-journals and national and international publications, dedicated computer laboratories, and department-specific resource rooms. Faculty at Doon College of Education are qualified and experienced professionals committed to the dual goal of academic rigour and practical teacher preparation. The college places strong emphasis on the integration of modern pedagogical tools in its teaching methodology, including audio-visual aids, multimedia presentations, and practical internship exposure through school practice teaching sessions. Students are regularly engaged in micro-teaching, lesson planning, and community outreach activities that form the core of teacher training in India. The campus infrastructure supports a well-rounded student experience. There are separate hostel facilities for boys and girls, cafeterias and canteen facilities spread across the campus, gardens and green spaces, kiosks for stationary and photocopying services, and STD/ISD communication facilities. Sports infrastructure supports the B.P.Ed and M.P.Ed programmes, with students receiving training and assessment in sports proficiency and physical fitness as part of their curricula. Admission to the B.Ed and M.Ed programmes is governed by the state-level process under Lucknow University, wherein candidates must qualify the UP B.Ed JEE (Joint Entrance Examination) for B.Ed and CUET PG or university-level entrance for M.Ed. The B.P.Ed and M.P.Ed programmes additionally require sports proficiency and physical fitness assessments as part of the selection process. The college follows all admission norms as prescribed by the NCTE, the Government of Uttar Pradesh, and the affiliated university. Doon College of Education, as part of the Doon Group, benefits from the group's established infrastructure, industry linkages, and administrative systems. The institution maintains a training and placement cell to help students in securing employment opportunities in schools, educational institutions, coaching centres, and government education departments after completing their programmes. The wider Doon Group campus environment also provides access to shared resources including sports grounds, central library archives, and inter-departmental academic events. For aspiring teachers in the Saharanpur region and across Uttar Pradesh, Doon College of Education represents a recognised, NCTE-approved institution offering a structured and comprehensive pathway into the teaching profession across multiple disciplines — general education and physical education — at both the undergraduate and postgraduate levels.
