SSR PART-II DOON UNIVERSITY, DEHRADUN The Department of Economics was initiated in the year 2010 with an MA Economics Programme and in 2011 the scope was enhanced with the introduction of an MSc Integrated Economics Course. In the year 2014, the Department introduced an M.Phil/PhD Course in Economics. 2010: Before introducing the MA Economics Programme in 2010, a need assessment was undertaken through the Detailed Project Report (DPR) of the university. In order to introduce the MA Economics (2 Year Programme) in 2010 and to develop the syllabus, courses run by Delhi School of Economics and JNU for the similar programmes was compiled in-house with the guidance from Prof. Pulin Nayak –DSE and Prof. Grijesh Pant –JNU (then VC-Doon University) and ratified by the Academic Council. 2011: While the 5 –year integrated MSc Programme in Economics was not a part of the DPR of the university, respecting the concern regarding the outmigration of students after passing out from school education and understanding developed through a brainstorming on 7 th February 2011, it was felt that the state does not have any opportunity for Economics education that provides an honours degree in Economics and therefore, students are going out of the state to pursue higher education in economics, especially in places like Delhi and Mumbai. Moreover, the institutions offering Master’s degree programme in the state including the only central university of the state were offering only traditional courses. With this understanding, courses for MA programme at the Department were modified and MSC Integrates courses were proposed through a brainstorming on 7 th February 2011 through a one day conference with experts such as included Prof. S.K. Jain, J.N.U; Dr. Indira Rajaraman, ISI; Prof. Sripad Motiram, IGIDR; Dr. R.P.Mamgain, IIDS, Prof. Ashok Mittal, A.M.U, Dr. Murali Prasad, IIT,Kanpur, Dr. Meeta Kumar, Miranda House, D.U., Prof. Pradipta Choudhary, J.N.U., Prof B.K Joshi, Ex-Vice Chancellor-Kumaon University; Prof. Girijesh Pant- JNU. The proposal for the new programme and the revised syllabus for the existing programme were was ratified through academic council. 2012: Academic Advisory Board of the Department was constituted with external experts such as Prof. S. P. Singh (IIT Roorkee) and Prof B. K. Joshi (Ex-VC Kumaon University) and all faculty members of the Department. This AAB was responsible for overseeing the progress of the students as well as evolution of courses of the Department. It was felt by the board that any institution of higher learning should have research activities to support the planning and policy making process in the region and given that none of the institutions were offering MPhil in Economics in the state, the board proposed the course and prepared the MPhil/PhD coursework outline and syllabus. These proposals were subsequently ratified in the Academic council and the course after due preparation was introduced in the year 2014. 2015: The recent initiative of the Department to introduce certificates, diplomas and B.Voc and M. Voc courses in Actuarial Economics (proposed and yet to be introduced), the department took active support from the Oriental Bank of Commerce (Corporate-Public), Punjab National Bank (Corporate- Public), HDFC Bank (Corporate-Private) and the Uttarakhand Service School of Social Sciences 189
