The Department of English has been functioning since 1970, the inception of the institute. The two faculty members, Dr Janardan Waghmare and Mrs Vijaya Rajopadhye laid foundation of the department.

The mission of our department is to enable the students to communicate in English, to make the students aware of "values" in literature and to master English Language Skills and Soft Skills. Our faculty is integrated towards the interdisciplinary approach of knowledge. The Departmental faculties teach English to the students of all branches including those in the Arts, Science, Commerce, Computer Science, IT, Biotechnology and B.Voc.
