The program continues to attract students from all ethnic, racial, and cultural backgrounds as they recognize ways that Africana Studies provides them with a forum to examine the intellectual life, the historical experience, and the cultural understanding of one of this country’s largest racial minority groups.
About The Program
The Department of English, under the Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences (FA), started its journey with two predominant visions: first, to enhance and nourish students’ mental, ethical, and creative facets of their personality; secondly, to prepare themselves for efficient professional and technical employment in future. There can be no denying that ethics, values, morality and creativity are the essential ingredients of nation-building.
As a pioneering private university of this country, Unipix has always been committed to imparting these ingredients among its students as the larger concerns of society. The Department of English firmly believes that value-education can bring excellence in leadership, and consequently excellence in nation-building.
