Department of Economics

The Department of Economics, which had its origin way back in 1959 as the extension centre of the University of Madras blossomed into a full fledged Department of Economics at the time of the formation of Madurai University in the year 1966. The Department of Economics made significant progress ever since its establishment and was selected by the UGC under Departmental Research Support Programme (DRS) in 1991 for its further growth. Subsequently the Department of Economics was converted into a School of Economics. The School of Economics has thirteen faculty members and produced more than 500 M.Phil., and more than 80 Ph.D. students. The faculty members have undertaken several major and minor projects on themes of local and national relevance funded by UGC, ICSSR and other agencies.
