Gangadhar Meher College began on a small base, with only 192 students enrolled. With the passing of time, it expanded and grew in stature. Degree programs in Arts and Commerce were started in 1944, and B.Sc. programs were added in 1957. When post-graduate departments were started at the College in 1964, it marked an important milestone. Another milestone period came in 1983 when the institution began offering M.Phil. programs in a variety of domains. Pre-Doctoral coursework in four subjects was also introduced in 2012 to fulfill the demand for higher education and research.
The institution's main aim was to serve the needs of underprivileged students in this tribal-dominated part of the state. In the years that followed, the institution played the role well. The College was able to mark out a distinct identity for itself in Odisha's educational system. It began operating as an autonomous college in 1991 and was governed and managed by statutory and non-statutory organizations appointed by the UGC. The UGC granted this university autonomy based on its academic repute, institutional management quality, and responsive administrative structure.
Furthermore, the UGC recognized the university as a "College with Potential for Excellence (CPE)" in the 2004-05 academic year. The institution added another feather to its cap when it received an "A" rating from the NAAC in recognition of its outstanding performance during the 2015-16 academic year. The newly established G.M. University has taken up the leadership role of G.M. College (Autonomous) and is set to rise to new heights of academic achievement in the coming years.
