Department of South and Central Asian Studies (Including Historical Studies)
The evolving connotation of South and Central Asian region as a ‘transformation driver’ has irresistibly driven not only the great powers to reconsider their strategic and economic priorities, but also a major realm of academia to review the previous drift of learning. Such a challenging task has been undertaken by CUPB in the form of a specialized Centre for South and Central Asian Studies. The centre being the founding pillar among the four centres under School of Global Relations is unique and innovative in its focus and is committed to cutting edge research. The centre seeks to promote, conduct and disseminate interdisciplinary studies in the key areas of South and Central Asian history and Archaeology, Culture and society, polity, economy, geopolitics, and the environment. The historical and contemporary connections between the two regions alongside multiple forms of exchange among them always attract scholars to explore the region. With a firm emphasis on research based learning and knowledge creation, the centre brings all aspects relating to the region under the academic purview. The centre is in the process of expansion with the experienced four faculties having a commendable publication record and research experience. Over the years, the centre has received four research grants of 20 lakh rupees. The Centre is devoted to promoting and strengthening inter-regional and intra-regional ties among South and Central Asian region.
