NCC

At Sam Global University, education transcends the traditional classroom setting. We believe in nurturing well-rounded individuals through a holistic approach that combines academic excellence with experiential learning.

The National Cadet Corps (NCC) in India is a voluntary organization which recruits cadets from high schools, colleges and Universities all over India. The Cadets are given basic military training in small arms and parades. The 1 Platoon of 54 cadets under the 1 MPCTR NCC Bhopal unit were raised in Sam Global University were raised.

The NCC in India was formed with the National Cadet Corps Act of 1948. It was raised on 15 July 1948 The National Cadet Corps can be considered as a successor of the University Officers Training Corps (UOTC) which was established by the British in 1942. During World War II, the UOTC never came up to the expectations set by the British. This led to the idea that some better schemes should be formed, which could train more young men in a better way, even during peace times.
