 UNDERSTANDING THE PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE

The department of History is one of the oldest department in our Institution. It started functioning from the academic year 1968-69. Connecting the past with the present is one of the most fascinating aspects of  history. History course covers more than 2000 years of human experiences.  We seek to impart rigorous training in the methods and theoretical approaches in history from the undergraduate level and encourage students to think and write creatively. Our aim is to make studying the past more enjoyable through  creative engagements and interactions.

The faculty plays an active role in assisting students to take up research.

The faculty encourage students to take as comprehensive a view of history as possible,  with the goal of cultivating a far reaching understanding of the past. Throughout their enrollment students develop the necessary skills to conduct discipline defining research.
