Padmanath Gohain Baruah School of Humanities
About School
The School of Humanities at Krishna Kanta Handiqui State Open University has been named after the great litterateur and first President of Assam Xahitya Sabha, PadmanathGohainbaruah (1871–1946) was the first president of Asam Sahitya Sabha and a prominent name in the early part of modern Assamese literature. He was a novelist, poet, dramatist of excellence, analyst and a thought-provoking writer. In recognition of his outstanding contributions to the Assamese literature and society, the British government gave him Raibahadur title, a rare honour conferred for the first time to an Assamese person. He was also the first literary pensioner of Assam.
The Humanities, which mostly deal with Literature, Philosophy and History, provide the learners with the much-needed stuff to discuss and explore the human experiences.Therefore, studies in the Humanities can help the learners understand the world as a whole, the society they live in while also exploring the minds of the individuals in different periods of human history through critical and interpretative methods of analysis. Besides, the Humanities also offer a window to different cultures, help to appreciate the people and societies and promote tolerance so that cultural differences can be appreciated.
With these objectives, the PadmanathGohainbaruah School of Humanities promotes the cause of languages, literatures and cultures through a number of Undergraduate, Post Graduate, Diploma and Certificate Programmes, under the existing disciplines, so that they suit the learning needs of the 21st century learners.There are mainly three disciplines under this School-Assamese, English and Sanskrit. Currently, there are 8 faculty members in the School.
