Department of Economics
The Department of Economics (Undergraduate and Postgraduate) is one of the oldest Departments in the College. The Department is a well knit community of accomplished and highly committed teaching faculty and a vibrant group of student body. The Department in its continuous endeavour towards harmonising excellence with inclusivity and equity draws strength from a dynamic teaching–learning process, where the faculty feels privileged to collaborate with its enthusiastic young scholars as they embark on an enriching and fulfilling life-long learning experience.
With the implementation of New Education Policy (NEP) the Department follows a unique and challenging curriculum and syllabus at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels as offered by the Ranchi University. Students are trained to analyse concrete problems with the help of conceptual frames, theoretical insights and mathematical, statistical and econometric tools along with computer applications. Areas of specialisation of the faculties in the Department includes Agricultural Economics, Environmental Economics, Labour Economics, Econometrics, Advance Mathematical Economics, Jharkhand Economics, Demographic Economics, Money and Finance, Micro and Macro studies.
The Department has its distinctive ethos where the faculty continually strives to walk as co-learners with the students on the path of knowledge building. The Department’s continuous emphasis on the understanding of the principles of Economics within a multidisciplinary framework has been a great motivator for its students to pursue their dreams and aspirations infused with a people centric approach.
