Welcome to the Department of English!

Language is more than just a means of communication; it serves as a gateway to culture, creativity, and critical thinking. In our department, we are committed to nurturing a profound appreciation for literature, strengthening linguistic proficiency, and developing analytical skills that equip students for both academic and professional success.

Our curriculum is structured to connect theoretical knowledge with practical application, encompassing diverse fields such as Communicative English, Business Communication, Professional Communication, and Literary Studies. We foster an interactive learning environment where students actively participate in discussions, creative writing, and co- curricular activities, enhancing their language proficiency and critical thinking skills.

With a dedicated faculty and a student-centric approach, we aim to nurture confident communicators and critical thinkers who are prepared to excel in their careers. I encourage all students to make the most of the opportunities available—participate in academic discussions, contribute to literary initiatives, and explore the endless possibilities that the English language offers.

In the era of Artificial Intelligence, we leverage technology to help students in their academics and also make them industry ready. To achieve this purpose we use FluenC, an English Language learning app that enables students Communicate in English with Confidence and improve English proficiency helping them increase employability.

Let us embark on this journey of learning and discovery together.
