The B.A. (Honours) in Bengali is an advanced undergraduate degree focusing on the literary, historical, structural, and cultural evolution of the Bengali language. The curriculum spans over a millennium of literary heritage—ranging from ancient proto-Bengali texts like the Charyapada and medieval epic narratives (Srikrishnakirtana, Mangalkavya, Vaishnava Padavali) to 19th-century Bengal Renaissance developments, Rabindrasahitya (works of Rabindranath Tagore), modern poetry, drama, and post-colonial regional literature. Alongside literary studies, the program builds strong core competence in Bengali Linguistics (Bhashatattva), Philology, Rhetoric & Prosody (Chhanda-Alankar), and Media Writing.
