The Department of Economics took its humble start in 2003, with only one program and 27 students. However, it has pushed the frontiers and registered magnificent growth over the last two decades and so. Currently, it is offering several undergraduate programs like BS Economics, BS Economics & Finance, BS Economics (2 years), BS Economics & Finance (2 years), and graduate programs like M.Phil Economics and Ph.D Economics.

The department is keen to launch new programs like MS. Development Studies (weekend program), and new majors/minors in Development Economics, Health Economics, and BS Labour Economics etc.

Here at the Economics Department, we help establish a strong foundation of the Economics Theory and a rich flavour of ground breaking research. We engage our students in a range of curricular, co-curricular, extra-curricular activities through the course of their educational programs. The students are provided with opportunities to interact with peers through alumni interactions, market leaders through guest speakers, local communities through outreach and interaction programs. 

The objective of all these engagements is to prepare our students for the job market, to make their impression as a successful economist,  and withstand the challenges of real life.
