About Defence Degree College for Women

Defence Degree College for Women was established in 1995. Initially, it was housed at the location of Senior School for Girls, Lahore. Later, in March 2000, it was shifted to the new purpose-built campus.

DDCW is one of the most reputable and creditable colleges with modern state-of-the-art campus, having spacious classrooms, fully equipped labs, well-stocked library and a vast playground to meet the growing demands of an ever-increasing student body.

In our pursuit of excellence, let us always remember that true empowerment stems from within. Let us celebrate our individuality, embrace our diversity and support one another in our collective journey toward knowledge and success.

To our students, I say: Dream boldly, stand confidently and shine brilliantly. Your unique light has the power to illuminate the path to a brighter future.
