several areas of English Literature, newly emerging Literatures of other Nations, Literary

Criticism and Theory, Comparative Literature and Translation Studies, Applied

Linguistics, etc. Due emphasis is given for the acquisition of required knowledge and

development of skills. Remaining updated and quite alive to the growing significance of

the English Language and English Literature Studies in the wake of quality enhancement

and globalization, the Department constantly endeavours to introduce need-based and

thoroughly updated syllabi, student-centered learning activities, latest trends, techniques,

approaches and methodologies in the process of teaching, training, and guiding research.

The Department has hosted several international, national and regional

conferences, seminars, and workshops on English Language and Literature, Comparative

Studies and Translation Studies, Literary Theory and Criticism, Indian Writing in

English, and Canadian Literature, etc. Members of the Faculty have participated and
