Introduction
The Department started functioning from the very first day of the inauguration of this University in 1999. We feel proud to say that the Department has been progressing from year to year to attain newer heights. Recent graduates of our department have successfully entered the fields of communication, research, media and journalism, fine arts, government, law, armed forces, corporate management, social services and academia; and are playing a significant role in society.
The endeavour of the Department is to prepare students of BS English & ADP to acquire confidence and independence with ability to reflect critically, and become responsible and creative citizens of the country. Also to inculcate in them, a spirit of understanding, tolerance and respect for other cultures, faiths and lifestyles; and to make them aware of the different varieties of Englishes used now a days. It will also help the students to know the basics of English Language and its proper use. These are effectively achieved by studying, analyzing and reflecting in a critical and positive manner.
English Department owns experienced and well-qualified faculty that aims to equip students with academic and professional knowledge as well. The department also provides students with various opportunities to demonstrate their knowledge and skills that contribute to the society and community development.
We believe in hard work, honesty and consistency.
