Department of Economics

PROFILE

                        The department of Economics has been functioning since inception of the college during the year 1951. Initially the department was started with four faculty members and 26 students. The department was lead by Sri. K. Prasasada Rao, I.A.A.S (Indian Administrative and accounts Services), as Asst.Lecturer and Head of the Department of Economics and the remaining three also Asst. Lecturers. The medium of instruction was English. It is a matter of pride that some of the members of the faculty are very famous, as they had served in the capacity of the faculty and also rose to eminence as Principals, particularly, sri. V. Habibullah, M.A.L.T., Dr. R. Anand Rao, M.A, PhD, served as principals and brought laurels to the institution.

VISION: The Vision of the Department of Economics is to provide, through both teaching and research, a better understanding of the global, national and local economic issues that will confront our society now and in the future.

MISSION: The department’s teaching mission is to offer rigorous undergraduate degree programs with emphasis on the relationship of theory to practice, use of hands-on research assignments, and the use of state-of-the-art educational technology.

The basic objectives of our degree programs are:

1. To enable our students to become policy-literate and thus be more informed as citizens

2. To prepare our students for successful careers as applied economists

3. To prepare our undergraduate students for graduate training in economics, law and business administration

            Telugu medium was introduced during the year 1971. Consequently, the strength was increased from 30 to 60. There was abnormal demand for admission into B.A. courses as it is the lead college of the district, situated in headquarters with hostel facilities separately for S.C and general students. In the latter years, due to pressure from the student organizations, parents and people's representatives, the strength is increased by introducing T E P and admitting girls.
