| I deem it a great pleasure to introduce myself as the Principal of this prestigious college. In my long years of service as a faculty member of this University, I have known this college to be a center of academic excellence that provides an unforgettable experience for the young ladies nurtured here. Osmania University College for women is the only university constituent college for women, which offers undergraduate, postgraduate and certificate courses. It has been reaccredited by National Assessment and Accreditation Council with an A grade and has been conferred the sought after status of “Center with Potential for Excellence” by the University Grants Commission. The faculty of this college is its main strength. A majority of them hold Ph. D degrees while the rest are in the process of acquiring them. Their specializations enable the college to provide the student community with regular courses in B.A, B.Com and B.Sc as well as job oriented self-finance courses. In fact this is the only college offering such a wide spectrum of courses.
The college is situated in a sprawling campus which has an abundance of greenery. The central part has the heritage building or the Residency built by the British. In addition to this there are fifteen other buildings spread over the entire campus, housing various departments, laboratories and classrooms.
This detailed information about courses offered, fee structure, faculties and faculty members, administrative and organizational structures, general facilities, committees functioning in the college and all other relevant information. Here I would like to state that the academic schedules of the college also include literary, cultural and sports activities. The all round development of the student is taken care of by sharpening their skills, building in them a system of social values and preparing them to take on the challenges of the future either for jobs or further education. Generations of students have benefited from being part of this college and it is my fond hope that this tradition of excellence continues in the coming years. |
| The main building of this college, which was part of the British legacy in India, is a monument of great aesthetic, architectural and historical importance. Commissioned in 1803 for the British resident, J. A. Kirkpatrick, its builder Lt. Samuel Russell of the Madras Engineers, has produced a structure capable of rivaling the Governor's house in Collate. It is massive in size and has an opulent façade of massive Corinthian pillars forty feet in height. Two lions guard it across a sixty-foot space of twenty-one marble stairs. As a former British Residency, it weaves its own mystique with galleried halls and drawing rooms, a Durbar Hall of stupendous proportions, painted ceiling, parquet floors of inlayed wood, flanked by tall mirrors. Its landscape is dotted by three arched gateways, named after Lord Roberts, the Commander-in-Chief, Lord Lansdowne, the Viceroy and queen Victoria herself. Its well-fortified outer walls serve as a safe haven for the young girls studying within. This building is now listed for funding by the World Monument Fund for restoration and modernization of the building. The American Express has already released one-lakh dollars for the purpose. |
| The Osmania University College for Women is a prominent educational institution in Hyderabad and started with only seven students admitted into the Intermediate Arts Course in 1924 in the premises of what was then the Nampally Girls School located in the "Golden Threshold", a former home of Smt.Sarojini Naidu. In 1932, the Intermediate Science Course was started and in 1935, Degree courses in Arts and Social Sciences were added. The College owes its present home to which it moved in 1949, to Nawab Ali Yaver Jung, the former Vice-Chancellor of the Osamania University. In 1941 B.Ed Degree and B.Sc. (Domestic Science) were introduced which has now been replaced by the BA and B.Sc. courses. During 1988-89, the University Grants Commission, granted the college 'Autonomous Status'. Over the following years the college has started several more courses. |
