The Department of Economic Studies and Policy (DESP) looks at academic engagement with a difference. While the major focus is on teaching of basic principles of Economics, the department search is for new epistemology both in theory and practice. It continues to focus on improving its course curriculum based on the evolving theoretical paradigms being witnessed in the field of Economics by different schools of thought that have ontological bearings. The diverse knowledge base in Economics and its ramifications on society and polity continues to be a primordial source of choice for direction of research. The department nurtures creative impulses of both faculty and students and continuously provides forums for developing critiques of existing theories and practices only to create a new space for the latter. While doing so, it contextualises emerging theoretical postulations at all levels including local, sub-regional, national and international. The department aspires and attract students and teachers to the department from all over the country and abroad to develop it as a unique department of learning and develop collaboration with other institutions for teaching and research.

 

Objectives of the Department :

To enlarge the scope for teaching of Economics as propounded by different schools of thought with an edge over both quantitative and qualitative techniques.

To conduct research in both theoretical and empirical planes.

To organise Seminar/Symposium/Dialogue/Workshop/ Training Programmes.
