Department of English

About the Department

The Department of English has been complying with the vision and mission of Guru Teg Bahadur Khalsa College for Women, Dasuya since its inception in 1992. It adheres to the role of imparting quality education to the women/girls of this kandi (geographically backward) area via supporting a range of abilities, attitudes, and socio-emotional competencies. ...

The department embraces a student-centric approach and has well-qualified teaching faculty having expertise in language and literature. The department favours the practice of close reading and thus inculcates in students habits such as effective communication and writing skills via organizing seminars, extension lectures, group discussions, and paper presentations. The Department of English is certain of interdisciplinary interactions and curriculum development and to nourish this vision we have started “Club Bibliosmia” (a literary club) in collaboration with the Department of Punjabi and the Department of Hindi. The department has been satisfactorily bolstering with other disciplines—Bachelor of Commerce, Bachelor of Science, and Bachelor of Computer Applications—for teaching Panjab University’s courses. By stepping through the door of the department, one steps into the world of literature and gets transformed for ever and ever.
