Iswar Saran Degree College

The Department of English was established in the year 1970, the same year as the inception of the college under the mentorship of the eminent scholars of English Literature, Dr. R.P Singh and Dr. U.K. Dwivedi. The Post-Graduation course was introduced in the department in the year 2016. The landmark achievement of the department is the formation of Language Centre and Language Lab which has flourished under the efficient guidance of the founder, Dr. U.K. Dwivedi, but later the Centre became an independent entity providing soft skills to undergraduate students on regular basis.
