Instead, it is known for its BFA and MFA programs, focusing on fine arts disciplines like painting and sculpture. Admission to these programs typically involves meeting eligibility criteria such as a 12th-grade qualification for undergraduate courses and a BFA for postgraduate courses.

For any admissions to other programs in sociology, you might need to look at alternative institutions in Indore that offer arts and humanities courses.
