Dr. K.R.Adhikary College of Optometry & Paramedical Technology is imparting training in paramedical courses since 2003 and is affiliated to University of Kalyani and also an ISO 9001:2008 certified institution. In this connection we like to state that shortage of Paramedics is a Global Problem. To reduce the gap between demand & supply of Paramedics, Prof. Dr. Tapan Kumar Adhikary, Founder of this Institution submitted proposals to University of Kalyani on 2002 to introduce different Optometry & Paramedical courses and after considering his proposals University of Kalyani introduced different Optometry and Paramedical Courses from 2003-04 academic session and five certificate courses like Nursing, Community Health Service etc. from 2011-12 academic session. This Institution is the pioneer of Paramedical Colleges under affiliation of a State University in West Bengal.
