Description:

The English and Foreign Languages University (EFL University) is a Central University established by an Act of the Indian Parliament on 3 August 2007. It is the only university in India devoted exclusively to the study of English and foreign languages. The Act mandates the new university to advance and disseminate “instructional, research and extension facilities in the teaching of English and foreign languages and literatures in India” as well as “to take appropriate measures for inter-disciplinary studies and research in literary and cultural studies, and to develop critical intercultural understanding of civilizations.” The English and Foreign Languages University grew out of the Central Institute of English and Foreign Languages (CIEFL), which was a deemed university instituted by the Central Government to improve the standards of the teaching of English and foreign languages in the country. At present, EFL University offers a variety of courses and research programmes in English, Arabic, French, German, Japanese, Russian, and Spanish. It is in the process of expansion and development under the leadership of its first Vice-Chancellor, Professor Abhai Maurya.
