Masters in English
The MA programme offered by the English Department constitutes its oldest and most extensive academic activity. On an average about 400 students are given admission to this program every year. These students are spread across the Main and the South Campuses and the Non Collegiate Women’s Educational Board.
The syllabus of MA English programme is designed to enhance a variety of literary, analytical, research, and theoretical skills among postgraduate students. The core, electives, and open electives courses in the syllabus are created to encourage students to think deeply and to reflect on what they have learned across the spatio-temporal, the socio-cultural and the economic-political transitions from ancient times to the present. It also aims to advance the do- main of literary studies through an inter-disciplinary pedagogical framework.
The course is divided into four-semesters. A student is required to complete 88 credits (i.e. 12 Core, 04 Elective and 02 Open Elective Courses in the entire four semesters) for the completion of course and the award of degree.
