Since the inception of the course, the Department has been the hub of innovative teaching activity, attracting a cross-section of students from all over the state. The BA programme is marked by rigorous course-work in theory and practicals and in emergent literatures cutting across various genres like poetry, criticism and fiction, and a semester-long work on a dissertation.
