It has a beautiful campus and good faculty members. There is no attendance policy.

Placements: There is a compulsory internship that we have to do in our second year after that we get placements from the college. The starting package ranges from 6-7 LPA in my course but students do not really apply in my course as most of them attempt for government jobs.

Infrastructure: The campus is extremely beautiful with lush green and great places to hang out. Buildings are made before independence so they are of British style. Classrooms are a bit old but they are still technically equipped. There are three canteens and all serve good food.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and good. They try to groom students in all aspects. They tell us about career options and try to increase our confidence. The political science course is very relevant in government jobs, media, teaching, and political parties.

Other: I chose this course because I developed an interest in political science in my class 12th. I thought I could do something in international relations. Events in our college are great and the location of the college is very happening.

Other: The course has a high demand for competitive exams. There is tough competition to get admission into this college. Fests are conducted in this college.

Our college is great in the architectural marvel of modern time, and it was built in the year 1885.

Placements: Only 5-10% of the students got placed every year from B.Sc. There is no such placement for BA students. The highest salary package offered is 5 LPA, the lowest salary package offered is 1.5 LPA and the average salary package offered is 2.5 LPA. Top companies which visiting here are Wipro, TCS, Tata, etc. Nearly 15% of the students get an internship in institutes and companies. Our college placement cell is working hard to increase placements.

Infrastructure: There are very good labs, classrooms surrounded by luxuriant refreshing trees and gardens. There is a hostel for both boys and girls of junior and senior colleges. Quality of food in the mess and canteen of our college is good. There are different grounds for different games. Different games are played, such as cricket, volleyball, badminton, tennis, basketball, football and kabaddi which build the sportsmanship quality in the students so that they are both mentally and physically fit.

Faculty: Teachers here are well-qualified with masters in their respective subject. They are all NET and SET qualified, and the majority of them are PhD holders. They are helpful. Overall, the teaching quality is good. The course curriculum is designed in such a way that students can build their own destiny. Both theoretical and practical knowledge is given to students because skill development is necessary, which is completed through the college curriculum.

Other: I have chosen this course because I have an interest in it, and I want to explore new things in Indian and world politics. The best things about our course are comprehensive, practical and meticulous knowledge which is gained through political science. I think they should provide new chapters in syllabus. Many events and fests of every department are celebrated here with great enthusiasm. The event name Spandan gathered students of Pune. Our college is well-connected to every place as it is in the heart of Pune city. The campus is lush green. Many extracurricular activities are held in our college to enhance the talent of students. Scholarships are provided to reservation category students, meritorious students and who are eligible for that.
