PG Department of English

Profile

The PG Department of English is a lively centre for language and literature studies, focused on building critical thinking, creativity and communication skills. With a forward-looking academic vision, the department offers two enriching programmes, BA Functional English and MA English Language and Literature.

The BA Functional English programme equips students with practical language skills and a functional command of English, preparing them for careers in media, business communication, teaching, content creation, and public relations. The curriculum balances literary appreciation with real-world language applications, ensuring students develop strong reading, writing, listening and speaking abilities.

The MA English Language and Literature programme fosters in-depth literary analysis, research acumen and interdisciplinary engagement. Students explore a wide spectrum of texts—from classical to contemporary, from British to global literature—while also developing scholarly perspectives on critical theory, cultural studies and linguistics.

The department hosts seminars, workshops and guest lectures that inspire academic excellence and personal growth. With a dedicated faculty and a student-centric approach, the PG Department of English empowers learners to become thoughtful readers, articulate communicators and socially-responsible citizens.
