The Department of Arts (Psychology, English, & Journalism) is as focused on overall development of students as it is on increasing their skill sets. Here is how we go out of our way to do so:
We regularly conduct seminars on critical issues such as social psychology, organizational behaviour etc. with the aid of industry experts.
Students are given a variety of mini-projects as well as one major project during the final year. These projects take into account the lesson plan as well as latest research.
We include subjects that focus on achieving perfection in the English language. We help students appreciate classic literature through lessons in poetry, drama, essays, and novels, of great authors.
A blend of classic curriculum and modern teaching aids are part of what makes this department so successful.
