The BA English (Honours) is a three-year rigorous program, offering a platform for varied literary, cultural and professional explorations. This program has been designed after having taken stock of the shifts in English Studies as practiced and envisioned in different parts of the globe towards a more critical cultural studies paradigm. Keeping this in mind the curriculum in its three-year span will comprise courses on Culture, Gender, Ecology, Cinema, Linguistics, History, Writing, Indian Epics, Urban Spaces, Disability Studies, Children’s Publishing, among others, and will equip them with a more nuanced understanding of life and society. Empowering students to pick up key skills, introducing them to crucial concerns and debates in the field, helping them gain job-oriented training and enabling them to attempt public intellectualism are some of the envisioned aims of the curriculum. Students are expected to make their choices as electives from the third semester onwards, where a student must choose an elective from either Literary Studies, Cultural Studies, and Language and Linguistics track in the third and fourth semesters and from each strand from the fifth semester onwards. The student, therefore, would be creating his/her own pool of electives to work with by also ensuring exposure to each of the tracks in each semester of the program. With committed faculty, the program hopes to bring in robust pedagogical practices, coupled with empathy towards student needs and intelligibility.
