न चोर हार्यं न च राज हार्यं न भ्रातृ भाज्यं न च भारकारि |
व्ययं कृते वर्धत एव नित्यं विद्याधनं सर्वधन प्रधानम् ||
Robber cannot steal it, no king/authority can snatch it, brothers cannot divide it, it is not heavy to carry. As you consume or spend, it increases and as you share, it expands. Education (Vidya) is the most precious wealth amongst all the wealth anyone can have.
Welcome to the department of English, Lingaya’s Vidyapeeth (a deemed to be university). Since the day of its inception, the department has been working relentlessly towards holistic development of its students so that they become ready for the journey called life. The department welcomes scholars who are committed, passionate and have positive learning attitude to take up academic pursuits. The Department stands out owing to various value-added training programs, CSR activities, training programs for IELTS, TOEFL, UGC-NET, BEC, Bank PO, Indian Defence Services Etc. with focus on Employability & Career Goals. It offers bespoke Training Sessions for Placements of Final Year Students and also caters to all other schools for conducting sessions on Universal Human Values by in-house AICTE trained faculty members. the faculty members assist students in inculcating various qualities like teamwork, leadership, social values and professional ethics that increases employability skills and helps them achieve excellence in their career. The department follows the Mentor-Mentee System (1:10) so that not a single bright mind is devoid of any academic or personal support.
Apart from the undergraduate, post-graduate and doctoral programs, the department ensures that our students get exposure to international & conferences, Workshops, Seminars, Symposia etc. on a regular basis. I take great pride in being a part of this department as here we believe that if students dare to dream, we are committed to making their dream turn into reality.
