Jadavpur University Department of English
Jadavpur University Department of English
The Department of English at Jadavpur University was constituted in 1955 initially to furnish language and humanities teaching to students of technology, but it quickly grew a research and teaching programme in English literature in its own right. Today it is arguably one of the foremost departments of English Literature in India, if not Asia. The Department also focuses on research and has a fairly large population of M.Phil and Ph.D. scholars who bring an inquiring edge to the Department’s preoccupations. International and national level seminars are held two or three times a year and senior scholars and faculty present papers alongside delegates from all over the world.
