Economics Department
About the Department
The Department of Economics was established in the year 1966, with a sanctioned strength of 40 students in B.A. Economics. During the academic year 1986-87 M.A. Degree in Economics was introduced. The Department has introduced M.Phil., research programme as a self-financing course in the year 2010. With this, the Department of Economics was elevated to the status of a Research Department. Since majority of the staff of the Department have research qualifications to their credit, efforts have been initiated to upgrade the Department into a Research Centre to offer Ph.D. research Programme in Economics. The Department of Economics is well known for its commitment in uplifting the rural youth by offering opportunities of higher education.
