Department of Economics, Navajyothi College Cherupuzha was established in 2018 to impart quality education to prospective students of rural villages and high ranges of Malabar as their accessibility to excellent higher education institutions is limited. The establishment of the department was, in every aspect, in par with the radical and compassionate view of Little Flower Congregation in ensuring inclusion and accessibility in higher education. As a budding branch of Navajyothi College, the department has been functioning enormously well by organising several academic activities which include seminars, workshops, conferences and other programmes for the betterment of its pupil. The department currently offers Undergraduate courses in Economics (B.A. Economics). The courses taught in the department are designed in accordance with the demands of job market and the students admitted to the course are being offered a skill gaining, intensive training in application oriented economics as well as in economic theorising. The skillful faculty of the department includes experienced educators, who are extremely talented in teaching as well as in economic research. The department envisages producing compassionate, skillful and talented young minds as such they can provide the society with radical and substantial change in the realms of development, inclusion, poverty and inequality.
It is no crime to be ignorant of economics, which is, after all, a specialized discipline and one that most people consider to be a ‘dismal science.’ But it is totally irresponsible to have a loud and vociferous opinion on economic subjects while remaining in this state of ignorance.
