The Department of English started in 1971 along with establishment of the college. The department plays an important role in addressing the students especially from minority and depressed communities. It endeavours to create awareness and interest among the students regarding English language and literature. For this purpose, the department has developed a departmental Library. It provides Language-lab facility for enriching students’ communicative competence as well. The English Department happens to be the large department in the Arts stream of the college with 3 fulltime fully qualified faculty members with ample experience of teaching and research. The department has the Post-Graduate programme since 2006-07. Recently, the department has received permission from the affiliating university to start a new Ph.D Research Centre. The department has persistently striven to provide quality teaching to the students who are drawn to the college from rural background and tribal area. In terms of resources and infrastructure, the department has latest audio visual equipments at its disposal such as a LCD projector with screen and K-Yan. The department collects the films related to literature and syllabus that enables us to arrange screenings for students from time and again. The department is also running 4-Credit Certificate Course in English.
The Department is carrying various extension activities like ‘William Wordsworth Poetry Writing Competition’, ‘Online Quiz Competition on William Shakespeare’, NET/SET Workshop for PG students. The English Literary Association (ELA) provides a platform to the students for extra and co-curricular activities such as poetry reading, elocution, debate etc. Our students too have persistently made their mark in competitions like soliloquy, debate, elocution, paper presentation etc. and have bagged various prizes.
