Department of English

Language shapes thought.

A degree in English Language and Literature is designed to get you reading books, analyzing theories, critiquing prose and verse, and taking a more critical look at the signs and words surrounding us every day. The aim is to get students think creatively and analytically about the English language; this differs from other modern language degrees as it is intended for students already proficient in written and spoken English. An English degree can focus equally on the literature and language sides, while others specialize in one or the other; this will usually be clear from the course title. A course with a focus on English literature typically allows students to study literary texts from throughout history.

B.A, B.A(Honours),B.A (Honours with Research) in English Language and Literature programme & M.A. English Language & Literature - two year (4 semesters) -programme in Mar Thoma College of Science And Technology under University of Kerala are still in their successful path with the aim of imparting intellectual training among students , equipping them with vocational skills so as to make them employable and to inculcate in them the right attitudes, values and moral character.
