DEPARTMENT OF  POLITICAL SCIENCE

The Department conducts the following courses as complementary courses to BA Functional English:

1.         Human Rights

2.         Politics of Globalization 

The students are given grounding in the basic concepts and ideas regarding human rights, issues of globalization, their realization at the grassroots levels, collective and individual experiences of these issues etc. Students are encouraged to   relate theoretical and academic discussions to their everyday experiences and also to act constructively in particular issues around them. Thus, the attempt is to inculcate in the students values and attitudes appropriate to democratic ideals and structures along with the development of academic competence in these issues. The classroom discussions and explorations are informed by the larger matrix of governance, participation, constitutional provisions, development etc. Students are also given an opportunity to develop a critical understanding of these issues and the human condition.
