Think Beyond Campus Placement
With only 35% formal campus placements, this programme is a launchpad, not a pipeline. Most grads pivot to UPSC prep, law, journalism, or government roles — so start building your network and internship portfolio from Year 1.
The verdict
Worth considering
Fergusson offers unbeatable brand legacy and rock-bottom fees for a 3-year political science degree, but the confidence score is low (40/100) and only 35% of students land roles via campus placement. It is a strong bet if you are already oriented toward civils, public policy, or law; skip it if you expect a direct corporate job with a high starting package.
