30. Was any need assessment exercise undertaken before the development of new
program(s)? If so, give the methodology.
The need for two new courses, EJP and CPE, was largely assessed on the basis of repeated
enquiries year after year at the admissions office for them. A series of consultations were
held with industry experts from Journalism, alumni of other institutions and teachers from
other institutions to design the EJP programme. On the basis of this the department decided to
begin the triple major course, English, Journalism and Psychology. It was felt that there was
rich interdisciplinary potential for such a combination. Hence, the course was begun in 2013.
The demand has been very good and the course has become viable and sustainable.
CPE was begun this year, 2016,once again going by an increase in enquiries for a course in
communicative/functional English. It was felt that combining Communicative English with
Political Science and Economics would add depth of knowledge of the contemporary global
scene to the development of viable skills in communication.
