The Post Graduate Correspondence School (P.G.C.S.), Kamrup was established in 1998.

The college was established with the objectives to help the vast number of students who, due to limited number of seats in Post Graduate classes or for other reasons could not enroll themselves as regular students of the Gauhati University, Guwahati.

The PGCS aims at providing an opportunity to the students to obtain a Post Graduate degree of the Gauhati University, Guwahati through the mode of distance education.

The Post Graduate Correspondence School is run by a Management Board constituted by the University Authority.

The PGCS proposed to open contact centers at various cities / towns, district head quarters of Assam and North East Region. The centre will be located in Universities, colleges or institutions of high repute of the locality.
