Future Plans• Departmental Membership in an esteemed library is

being considered to provide students with adequate exposure

• At least three ICT classes and interactive sessions with audio-visual aid

• Departmental programmes consisting of debates, extempore, students’ papers and skit

• Selective exposure to alternative media based on the syllabus, such as, the film adaptation of Macbeth by William Shakespeare, which will serve as educational tour

• A language lab to help students in the competitive field, is under development. Thank you
