My College Campus

My College- well known as GSS College (Govindram Seksaria Science College), situated in Belgaum, Karnataka, is run by the South Konkan Education (S.K.E.) Society was established in 1966 at Belgaum with an objective of boosting education leading to social and economical development of the region. Later, the Government of Karnataka in 1988 recognised it as a linguistic Minority institution. The society also runs 6 other educational institutions. The progress made by the College in promoting quality education reasonably matches with the aims and objectives planned at the time of establishment. The U.G.C. has included the college under 2f and 12B list for the purpose of grants in 1966. It is affiliated to Karnatak University, Dharwad.
