The Department was established in 1953 with Prof. R.L. Bhatia as its founder Head Since then the department has been striving continuously to achieve excellence. The Department of Political Science provides students with the tools for a careful and systematic study of politics, within the scope of a liberal arts education. Students are grounded in factual material about governments and politics, and in political philosophy as well. The department’s program is also grounded in values: we study both what happens and what ought to happen in politics. We stress the importance of life-long academic skills in critical thinking, writing, and speaking. The Political Science Department believes strongly that learning is not limited to the classroom.
