About Patkar-Varde College of Arts, Science, Commerce & Economics

About us Patkar-Varde College is well-known in the western suburbs of Mumbai. Since its establishment in 1964, it has constantly worked at increasing the number of courses it offers students and bettering its infrastructure. The College has grown steadily over the last four decades and we have never turned away from challenges. In keeping with the spirit of learning and growing through criticism, we have set up high standards, working continuously towards advanced goals. The College of Arts & Science started functioning from the academic year 1964-65, with Late Prof. A.N. Kothare, a distinguished lecturer in Chemistry, as the first Principal. In response to a heavy local demand for the Commerce faculty, the Commerce wing was started in 1980 with two divisions of FYBCom, which were extended upto the TY level in subsequent years. To provide career-based education, the College started degree-level Self-Financed courses of BMS and BSc Computer Science from the year 2000-2001 and BSc - IT from the year 2001-2002. Similarly, for Junior College, Bi-focal courses (Electronics and Computers) were started. Also, to help students select an appropriate career, the College has started several Certificate courses, such as a one- certificate course in ‘Visual Arts and Communication’, a course in film-making titled ‘Cammpus@24 FPS’, and ‘Android App Development’. A new building to house new SF Courses and a Ladies’ Hostel was completed and became operational in 2012-13. Patkar-Varde College has a place of pride amongst the various educational institutions from Jogeshwari to Virar. It has been rendering a valuable service to the suburban community since 1964. Many of our alumni hold very good positions in various fields.
