The Department of Education was established in
September, 1986, with the major purpose to produce competent, enlightened and
well-disciplined teachers at the Master’s level, i.e. M.A. Education and M.Ed.
for both Arts and Science Students. The former is a two years programme and the
later a one-year programme.
Initially, the Department started with four teachers.
The staff strength has now grown to ten. Out of these, four hold Ph.D. degree.
The initial enrolment in M.A. Education and M.Ed. was 48 students which has, at
present, gone up to around 300. The services of foreign experts and renowned
educationists are also secured from time to time with a view to improving and
updating the quality of teaching/learning process. The library of the Department
is adequately equipped with relevant text books and reference literature.
