Department of English

Year of Establishment: 1966

BSK College, Maithon has a rich heritage spanning almost 50 years of its existence. It caters to the mixed population in the semi-urban area of Maithon which lies on the Jharkhand – West Bengal border. There is great need for English in this area as it is the only government college for kilometres around. Students from all classes wish to pursue a career in English. Therefore, it became imperative for the founders of the college to seek affiliation in English. English Honours as well as Generic Elective for other Honours subjects and General courses, AECC for Semester I all are included in the department’s purview. The Department has 03 sanctioned posts but currently there is only one serving teacher in the department. The department has a wonderful history of founder teachers who added value to it by their dedicated service over the years. The students of this department are extremely active and participate in all college activities. The results of the students are a glowing witness to the hard work put in by the dedicated Faculties. Together with the participation of teacher and taught, Department of English is flourishing, growing by leaps and bounds with each passing day.

The Department of English aims to engage young minds in creative and analytical thinking through literary studies that can effectively help in building a holistic and healthier human community. This objective is achieved by creating space for students to discuss both local and global writings critically and creatively. In view of this, the texts prescribed in the curriculum are thoughtfully selected and taught through discussion, project work and power point presentations. Departmental seminars help students shed their inhibitions and fears. Students are encouraged to express themselves through various mediums in order to help them to think and speak their hearts and minds. Originality is applauded, new viewpoints are welcomed. The Department moulds today’s students into tomorrow’s responsible citizens.
