The Department originally named as 'Home science Education and Extension' was established as a separate department with the introduction of Master's Programme in 1970. Prior to its independent existence the courses in Home Science Extension Education were taught for four years i.e. 1966 to 1970 to B.Sc. Home Science students under the umbrella of College Academic programme. The turning point occurred in 1970 when the status of the department got elevated by starting M.Sc. programme. The Ph.D programme was initiated in 1986 after appropriate upgradation of infrastructure and Human Resource. So far 165 M.Sc. and 22 Ph.D students have obtained degrees in the discipline. The course curriculum has undergone several changes as per national, societal and educational needs. Academic programme of B.Sc. includes Student Ready Programme during the last two semesters of the degree programme. Practical trainings are provided in well equipped laboratories & field situations. Course manuals have been prepared by faculty as a supplementary tool to effective teaching. Infrastructure and other facilities are available for improving communication and instructional delivery messages to both formal and non-formal stream of learners. Efforts are continuously being made to strengthen research facilities and improving teaching through financial assistance under funded research projects. The faculty has advanced academically by attaining higher education and training in India and abroad. A number of instructional resources i.e. printed, electronic and multimedia have been tested to improve instructional delivery for effective communication. Development programmes are evaluated regularly through student research and reports submitted. Emphasis is being laid on social behavior change communication using both interpersonal channels and ICT.
