overview
Department of Public Administration
The Department of Public Administration was established in 1973 at the undergraduate level. Public Administration is one of the most applied subjects in the social sciences — it provides students with practical knowledge of government structures, administrative systems, and public policy, making it highly relevant for careers in public service, the private sector, and NGOs.
The department is committed to promoting academic excellence, ethical leadership, critical thinking, and national development values among students. Faculty guide students for competitive examinations such as MPSC, UPSC, and other public service entrance tests.
