MIT Art Design and Technology University, Pune (MIT ADT University), a leap towards world class education is established by the renowned MIT Group of Institutions. It is state Private Multi- Disciplinary University located on the 125 acres of campus at Raj Baugh, Loni Kalbhor, Pune, Maharashtra. The campus has been awarded with 'Best Campus Award', 2017, by ASSOCHAM. MIT- ADT University is a Multi-Disciplinary University which offers programs at undergraduate, post graduate and doctorate level in 'Art', Design' and 'Technology'.

As university promises to introduce 'Innovative and Modern Curriculum Design' at the Degree Level, there is growing demand from the different corner of the region and state in particular to establish 'Guidance Centre' for UPSC /State PSCs Civil Services Examinations. We all know that if the student start to prepare for UPSC/ State PSCs during the graduation then he/she will not have to spare extra years after graduation to prepare for these competitive examinations. Keeping in View, we at MIT-ADT University, established “MIT School of Indian Civil Services” and offering a programme of B. A. (Administration) & M. A. (Administration) with BA-MBA, MA-MBA Integrated UG-PG Programme. The programs offered by MIT-ADT University, Pune will be preparing the students for Civil Services Examination while they get regular degree in B.A. / M. A. during the entire Programme. Students will be prepared for Civil Services

Examinations, as the curriculum of B. A. / M.A. is exactly based on Civil Services Examinations Curriculum. Examination Pattern is also exactly same as that for Civil Services Examinations.

We all know that the education has been one of the most effective ways to bring about any social transformation and educational institutions have the moral obligation to contribute and achieve this novel ambition. Also, as the nation advances further, the complexities of public governance, policies and administration will also multiply. Those in turn, will require larger numbers of self- motivated & knowledge driven dynamic youth to take up the reigns of Administration through participation in bureaucracy and enter the field of Governance.

By offering B.A. / M. A. (Administration) Programms, we aim to inculcate character building in the students in such a way that they do not lose steam even if they are unable to crack CSE and still be an asset for the society and nation in whatever options and opportunities come their way. Surely, our expertise and experience of imparting education and training at MIT-ADT University puts us better equipped to implement our ideas in their intended spirit.

I welcome your decision to pursue B.A. / M.A. (Administration) and to appear for civil services exams as a career to serve the nation and wish you all the best for your success and future endeavours.
