English Studies is taking on an increasingly important role against the backdrop of the current global scenario. With the rise of Artificial Intelligence and a shift towards dependence on it, the ever-important questions of humanity, creativity, and critical enquiry have been brought to the forefront once again. Thus, the Post Graduate programme in English, 2025, has been designed with the aim to provide the students with both hard and soft skills to negotiate the ever-changing environment around them. While Literary studies will continue to function as the core component of the syllabus, it also includes the mandate of the National Education Policy 2020 advocating increasing vocationalisation of curricula and, accordingly several skill-based courses have been designed to lend the learners a competitive edge when it comes to selection for employment and further research positions.
