The Department of English
Since its inception in 1981 along with the
establishment of the college, the Department of English has been a centre of focused
teaching and learning in English language and literature. The Department was
formally set up with the commencement of the Undergraduate programme in 1993.
The Postgraduate programme was sanctioned in 2016 which strengthened the Department
towards achieving its goals.
Being
the only Postgraduate English Department affiliated to Kannur University in
Wayanad district, its significance is beyond measure. We play a vital role in
giving shapes to the dreams and aspirations of the student community of
Wayanad, a district that is geographically and socially far from being the
mainstream. Since its inception the
department has been playing a key role in bettering the English education,
augmenting the reputation of GCM and enhancing the employability and worldview
of the students. Our students have become the ambassadors of the rich legacy
and heritage of the culture and education imparted by Government College
Mananthavady across the world. Our plan for future is to make this a Research
Department so that this becomes a centre that is bustling with more academic
activity and teeming with more energy.
