Indian Culture Department

About the Department

Swami Vivekananda says that Education should be Man Making. To prove the words, our philanthropic management established a unique educational institution, which was known as Arulmigu Palaniandavar College of Oriental Culture on 23rd June 1960. In the initial stage, Oriental Culture college offered B.A., Degree in Oriental Culture. In Hinduism, service to the humanity is the highest form of worship. So, Arulmigu Dhandayathapani Swami Thirukkoil Devasthanam, which is our Humanitarian management, offered free education with boarding and lodging to the rural poor students through the Oriental Culture College. Later on, Oriental Culture course was renamed as Indian Culture with the same syllabus. Post Graduate course in Indian Culture was launched in the academic year of 1971-1972. In the academic year of 1981-1982, Culture College was merged with Arulmigu Palaniandavar Arts College. The College was renamed as Arulmigu Palaniandavar College of Arts And Culture with the Department of Indian Culture. The Department of Indian Culture offers Under Graduate and Post Graduate courses. The Ph.D. research Programme was launched in the year 2006. The Faculty of Members of the Department are very much involved in stimulating the human values, Indian culture and creativity to its pupil.
