The Department of political science was established in the year 1966. Many teachers have contributed to the growth of the department. Few of our department students have also become ministers. The Department has qualified teaching faculty. By keeping in view the regional students’ interest, we are teaching in both Kannada and English. By studying political science in undergraduate level, students will be able to understand local and regional governments, national and international politics, public administration, Human Rights, political sociology and constitutions. There is a great opportunity to the political science students to pursue Master Degree and B.Ed. Political science students can also become  professional Teachers, Lecturers, Administrators and civil servants. Studying political science at the undergraduate level enables students to take competitive exams and civil service exams.
