Sir Ivor Jennings Museum

With the mission of assuring the accessibility of precious memories of the past to its community in an organised and respectful manner, Sir Ivor Jennings Museum of UoC was established in 2019 under the guidance of former Vice-Chancellor Professor Lakshman Dissanayake. It is located in the College house. The University museum collects, preserves, and presents the pieces of evidence of its 115 years of successful journey. The collections provide the foundation for research and education on the evolution of university culture in different aspects. Sir Ivor Jennings Museum is continuously committed to providing a variety of learning experiences to several audiences and hopes to expand to the community who present far beyond the University. Many of the artefacts related to the UoC history have transferred to the University of Peradeniya, and the remaining valuable artefacts, such as group photographs of the 1^st Council, minutes of the 1^st Council, old prospectuses, and lists of graduates, provide living evidence of the famed history. Currently, the University is in the process of collecting such artefacts from the public in order to widen its limits.
