History

The College was established on 1 April 1983, by the then Sub-Divisional Officer (Civil) PuR. Sethuraman. The College was initially known as Taichung College, christened after Kachunga, a philanthropist from Aizawl. It was renamed Mamit College in March 1987. The college initially operated through financial contributions made by local people until it was upgraded to Deficit Status in April 1993.

Mamit College functioned for some time by using Government Middle School-I and II buildings. Afterward, the governing body of the college acquired land for its permanent campus and constructed an Assam-type tin-roofed small building with four rooms. The college moved into the newly constructed building in 1991. It was taken over by the Indian Government in 2007.[3]
