About the Department
The Department of Defence Studies was established in 1996 with a focus on providing specialized education in key areas related to war, strategy, tactics, military evolution, Indian security perspectives, international relations, comparative study of major South Asian powers, major powers, and defense organizations. The department takes pride in its well-qualified faculty who possess expertise in their respective fields. These knowledgeable instructors are committed to imparting quality education and ensuring that students receive comprehensive training in defense studies. The curriculum is designed to equip students with the necessary knowledge and skills to excel in competitive examinations related to defence and security. The department strives to prepare students in a manner that enables them to achieve their goals and pursue successful careers in defense-related fields. Furthermore, the college where the department is housed is actively engaged in taking initiatives to introduce Defence Studies as an Honours Course in the near future. This demonstrates the institution's commitment to further expanding the scope of defence education and providing students with advanced specialization opportunities. By offering a robust curriculum, qualified faculty, and future plans for expansion, the Department of Defence Studies aims to produce graduates who are well-prepared to contribute effectively to defence organizations, strategic think tanks, security agencies, and related fields.
