ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT
<p><span style="font-family: "times new roman", times; font-size: large;">The department of Sociology, Khejuri College started its journey in 1st June, 1999. The department of Sociology was a flag bearer to initiate the Program which is modern in content yet encompasses issues beyond its purview. Thus the initiation of this department as one of the major program opened a space for those students who basically wanted to understand one’s own society, community and group with proper methodology. From the beginning itself the department envisions to provide quality education aspiring students to cater knowledge on what we term as “Sociological”. The prime intention of the department being that the students should be able to pursue the quest of sociological understanding not only academically but also in a practical manner so that they would be responsible and active participants in civic life and to live generously in service to others.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: "times new roman", times; font-size: large;">The Department of Sociology offers both Honours and General Courses. At the beginning (1999), primarily the department had general courses for two years after which in 2001 both Honours and general courses was offered to the students. Since the inception of the college(in 1999) the department was run by a senior teacher Mr. Sukumar Manna, later he was joined by a prominent professor, Dr. Subrata Chatterjee (joined in 2001) who acted as the Head of the Department since then. The department had many efficient and dedicated faculty from the beginning among whom Mr. Sukumar Manna, Prof. Subrata Chatterjee, Ms. Purbali Panda, Mr. Asit Shee, Ms. Sumati Bakra, Mrs. Swati Das were the pioneers. Dr. Subrata Chatterjee served as the Head of the Department since 2001 till 2018. He is one of the founding head of the dept. of Sociology, Khejuri College.

Every year the department for sake of societal awareness organizes an educational tour in the nearby places of importance for inculcating in them thesense of embeddedness within the society.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-family: "times new roman", times; font-size: large;">The Sociology faculty is a community ofscholars with diverse intellectual interests and expertise committed toexcellence in teaching and research, and is intellectually innovative and informed, grounded in but not bound by our disciplines.
