Adoni Genesis
The Department of
English came into being at the inception of our College in 1962. It started
with two members on the faculty. Mr. M.G. Narasimha Murthy was the first Head of the department, the other member of the department
being Mr. V. Chandramouli. With the increase in
student strength, recruitments took place over a period of time and the number
of teachers on the faculty increased to eleven. Subsequently, the number has
come down to six. At present, there are four aided lecturers and two lecturersare working on Consolidated Pay.

Changes in the Syllabus and Efforts for Implementation
The Department has been holding aloft the banner of
excellence for the past forty-four years. The Department is fully geared to
face the new academic challenges posed with the advent of the modified
curriculum.
The
Globalization phenomenon has tremendously increased the job potential. But the
stress is now on the enhancement of soft skills, communication skills and
neutralization of accent, if the job potential is to be fully tapped. The A.P.
State Government has risen to the occasion and thoroughly revamped the Degree
English Syllabus, in consultation with A.P.S.C.H.E. The new syllabus is named the “Modified
Curriculum”
The stress on the traditional syllabus
comprising literature and grammar has been reduced by fifty percent and Spoken
English and Communication Skills have been given importance, accounting for
fifty percent marks in the university examinations.
