Institute of Education and Research

The Department of Education was established in 1950, which was elevated to the Institute of Education and Research (IER) a faculty of education in 1980, however, the existing faculties of the university have been re-structured and IER is now placed under the Faculty of Social Sciences.

The IER provides B.Ed and M.Ed training to prospective and in-service teachers of secondary and higher secondary schools. At B.Ed level both theoretical and practical training are imparted, whereas the M.Ed trainees are theoretically strengthened regarding pertinent teaching issues. The training duration for both B.Ed and M.Ed is of one academic year.

The College has currently eight departments and thirteen faculty members. Housed in a separate building, it has all the necessary facilities of a teacher training institution. It has a spacious and well-stocked library, science and computer laboratories, seminar rooms, and lecture halls. Moreover all necessary efforts are made to ensure that the trainees' stay is comfortable and productive.[5]
