The establishment of Department of English dates back to 2009 and post graduate course in English was introduced in the year 2012. The department is functioning with 21 faculties, comprising more than 380 students with a motive to equip the rural students to have a better communicative ability. From the commencement of the course, the students of the department have brought laurels by achieving university ranks. The department marches ahead to build versatile students from the under-privileged sections of the society. It also caters the language and communication for the young vibrant minds. Our main objective of potentiality is to provoke passion in the vast literature at global level. Guided by the proud legacy of the past, the department of English awaits to meet the challenges that lie ahead in the days to come.

Department of English facilitates young and enthusiastic learners who come into the portals of Mangayarkarasi College to develop right attitude, sharpen language skills and gain knowledge of literature to meet their career goals and live up to the expectations of the society. Socially relevant and industry related curriculum, technology enabled teaching and learning, comprehensive assessment system and career enhancement programmes such as TOEIC/TOEFL classes were initiated through our department.
