SWOC analysis of the department and Future plans:
Strengths
Faculty members are well qualified and research oriented
Use of technical and innovative teaching methodology for student enrichment
Weaknesses
No Postgraduate programme
Students from vernacular background
Students produce poor results in English
Opportunities
Students of English have immense opportunities in corporate world, education field, banks, LIC etc.
If more job-oriented coaching classes could be organized for the students of the department exclusively, it would give them good result. Add-on courses like Spoken and Communicative English Courses can bring new opportunities for the students of this department.
Challenges
It is a challenge to generate interest of students, in an altogether new discipline (English Literature), who come from diverse backgrounds many of them are first generation learners from poor and backward families.
Equally challenging is to expose such students to the discipline’s course content, its diversity and coherence.
Future Plan
To start Certificate Course in Spoken English.
To develop English Language Laboratory in the institution.
To arrange various programmes for overall personality development of the students
