Shri Shivaji Science College, Amravati — Legacy, Excellence & Innovation
Shri Shivaji Science College, Amravati, is a flagship institution of the Shri Shivaji Education Society, one of Central India's largest and most prestigious educational organizations. Founded in 1932 by the legendary Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh - India's first Agriculture Minister and a member of the Constitution Drafting Committee - the college carries forward a mission of empowering society through scientific temper and quality education.
What began as a specialized faculty in 1958 blossomed into an independent, premier Science College in 1969. Over the decades, the institution has grown from a humble "seedling" into a towering "tree," providing shelter and world-class mentorship to thousands of students who now excel across the globe.
Shri Shivaji Science College doesn't just meet standards - it sets them. Our commitment to academic rigor and institutional quality is validated by a string of prestigious national honors. We are proudly accredited with an 'A+' Grade (CGPA 3.42) in the Fourth Cycle by NAAC, alongside being conferred the elite CPE (College with Potential for Excellence) status by the UGC. Our upward trajectory is most visible in the NIRF Rankings, where we have consistently climbed the ladder from the 151-200 rank band in 2022 and 2023 to Rank 99 in 2024 and Rank 93 in 2025.
Our infrastructure and research capabilities are fuelled by powerhouse national grants, including the PM-USHA scheme, DBT STAR College, DBT BUILDER and DST-FIST grants. Beyond our own walls, we serve as a beacon for the region; recognized as a "Career Katta Centre of Excellence" by the Govt. of Maharashtra (2024) and nominated as a "Lead College" by SGBAU.
We've moved beyond the classroom to create a high-octane environment where discovery meets entrepreneurship. At Shri Shivaji Science College, we don't just graduate students: we launch pioneers through three key pillars:
Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Minor Research Grant provides 1.0 Lakh per project to drive high-impact, interdisciplinary research.
Our Ministry of Education-aligned Innovation Cell acts as a launchpad, transforming raw student concepts into tangible, market-ready prototypes.
