History

This department was promoted to the main department status in 2002-2003, and B. Lit. Tamil degrees have been offered here since then. This college's B. Lit. Tamil students must study both traditional and modern branches of knowledge. The papers assigned as associated subjects are Journalism and Mass-media (Radio Television). These disciplines will help our students get work and/or start their own businesses. Knowledge of the language also allows you to access a great variety of materials such as literature, music, and theatre, all of which are abundant in the Tamil language. The Tamil language is used nearly completely in historical literature. The Department of Tamil was founded in 1998-1999 with the goal of teaching students about Tamil culture and literature. The Department of Tamil organizes an educational tour every year to historical places exclusively for B. Lit students. The Department published "MEENAKSHI AANDU ITHAZH" from the academic year 2018-2019. The department produced nearly 30 university rank holders from its inception.
