The only college in Central India which
provides an integrated education right from the Junior College level
up to the Doctoral Research level in all three faculties – Arts,
Commerce and Science and recognized as a Place of Higher Learning by
the RTM Nagpur University.
Hislop College is
celebrating 125 years of excellence in academics and sports this
year. Indeed, it is one of the oldest educational institutes of
India. The college predates the Nagpur University and has naturally
provided several educational leaders to the University – the first
vice-chancellor of the Nagpur University included - and to the
Nation in general. Acclaimed scientists, prolific litterateurs, and
ambitious politicians have all walked its corridors. The college
imparts education across all the three faculties – Arts, Science,
and Commerce. And postgraduate education in all three faculties is a
norm rather than an exception. Hislop College also has the
distinction to be recognized as a Place for Higher Learning by the
RTM Nagpur University. This has allowed it to become the only
college to provide an integrated education right from the Junior
College level up to Doctoral Research.
The college is situated on more than 7 acres of land. The huge
building encloses a quadrangle that has a proscenium, lawns,
ornamental plants and a basketball court. It is a meeting ground for
students and teachers and provides a picturesque setting for the
building. The college has a huge 40,000 sq. m. playground which
hosts several sports competitions. The college also has a boxing
rink in the ground and a state of the art gymnasium is coming up.
The college is located centrally in the Civil Lines. It is easily
approachable from the railway station, from the bus station and from
the airport. Moreover, it is equidistant from virtually any location
in the city.
