About Department
The Department of Literature
and Languages, initially a part of the Faculty of Humanities and Sciences of JC
Bose UST serves as the kernel to the Faculty of Liberal Arts and Media Studies
of the university. Literature along with critical analysis is our core strength
but we seek to give an edge to our students in the contemporary digital world
of content development that includes non-verbal as well as literary approaches.
Furthermore , our courses combine the best in global and regional approaches as
we blend the canonized and earlier marginalized areas of studies. In 2019, the
university launched its research-oriented and (National Education Policy) NEP
compliant MA English programme that is steadily working on projects within the
world of literature that are tangible. The Department offers PhD in English and
a two-year full-time MA English programme besides catering to science and
engineering department with a spectrum of foundation, elective and audit
courses aimed at development of literary acumen, soft skills and creative
thinking.
MISSION

To help them take economic, social, legal and political considerations when visualizing the role of trans- media pursuits in improving quality of life. To help students identify their area of interest so that they can navigate ultimately towards their area of specialization. To synergize the efforts of its competent faculty towards imparting intellectual confidence that aids comprehension.
VISION

academically stimulating atmosphere that encourages a spirit of inquiry
