Yeshwantrao Chavan College was established in 1972. The History dept. was also established at the same time and started catering education to first year students. The first graduation batch came out in 1972. It is one of the departments in Arts faculty.

History is one of the important subjects in arts faculty. It is defined as ‘A continual communication between the past and present’. It means that history is not related just with the past, but it has a connection with the present and future also.  It decides the undercurrents of the present society. If we do not know the past, it becomes quite difficult to take decisions in the present that will shape our future. Such is the importance of history.      

     In an ancient times history was just a story of Kings and Queens but in modern times its scope has changed. Whether history is an art or a science was also a point of constant debate, but now it a social science. The human element of history makes it an interesting subject for all. Francis Bacon, a famous English thinker says that ‘ History makes man wise’. From the students point of view, history is one of the major subjects for the aspirers of Competitive Exams.
