6. Bio-Sketch: Currently, Dr. G. K. Goswami is a visiting professor at the


department of mathematics, Netaji Subhas University of Technology, New
Delhi, India. His research activities span to the area of Cosmology, Gravitation
and dark energy in curve space times. Cosmology is the study of the Universe
in large. During the present century, a large number of observational results
reveal the overall regularities, which are global rather than local. The basic
purpose of the cosmological studies is to construct a coherent picture of the
Universe based on these data and build up theoretical models which fit them
best and tell us about the past and future of the Universe. His previous and
current work deals with a number of cosmological models, which might be of
interest in studying the early Universe. His interest is also to study the

331
analytical and physical properties of dark energy and dark matter especially
with the recent indications that the cosmic expansion is accelerating and the
cosmological constant does not vanish. He started his research as UGC junior
and senior fellow during 1975-1981 and continued it during his assignment as
college lecturer from 1981 till now. His total research experience is 44 yrs. He
joined Kalyan PG College, Bhilai Nagar (C. G.) as lecturer in Mathematics
Department on 22-08-1983 and got retired as Prof. and Head on 31st Dec 2018.
He was facilitated with best teacher award. In the year 2015 by Chhattisgaragh
State Govt.He has an experience in teaching U. G. courses for 36 years and P.
G. courses for 30 years. He has 35 research papers to his credit which are

moral reasoning and analysis, values, responsibilities and justice; stress
management and organizational behavior; and relationships among individuals
in society, community organization and social welfare respectively.

2. Courses Offered

The Department runs a common English language programme at its basic level
through the first and second semesters. It also offers many elective job specific
subjects like Soft Skills and Personality Development, Sociology & Development,
Environment & Society to name a few. As part of the transition to a University,
the future plans of the Department are running Masters in English Literature,
Language & Communication (MLLC), Certificate Course in Professional English
(CPE), as well as having an operating Language Lab to help learners to excel in
English language practice. Similarly post graduate and undergraduate
programmes in Psychology, Economics & Philosophy are underway as all these
disciplines will focus on skill development as well as on opening up job
opportunities. Short and Long Term Programmes in Spoken English and
Personality Development to benefit those interested in English Language
Training as a component of skill development.

Acquisition (Department of Linguistics, University of Delhi), she is
teaching English to undergraduate engineering students at Netaji Subhas
University of Technology (NSUT), for the past 19 years. Her overall
contribution to teaching at undergraduate level including other colleges
of Delhi University is around 24 years. With a number of papers in
English Language teaching, she also has papers in English Literature and
creative writing. Her debut book ‘Five Short Stories: Translations from
Munshi Premchand in 2014 is a fledgling step in the world of translation
and publishing. Another book on translation from Maithili to English
called ‘Seven Short Stories: Stories Translated from Dr Hari Mohan Jha
in 2016 is another ambitious work in the interplay of languages.
Aiming at a general improvement in oral and written skills, she finds
translation from one language to another as the real test for a speaker of
a number of languages. With increased global demand for good English
communication skills, honing spoken skills in engineering graduates is
her forte and mission. Keeping the interests of the students in mind, she
has reviewed and revised the existing syllabus as per the needs today.
Having functioned as the Faculty-in- Charge of the Debating Society of
NSIT for quite many years, she finds it an extension of her aim of
developing good communication skills in her students, apart from it being
an exercise in coordination, competition and management capabilities for
the participants and hosts. Another society ‘Intagliare’ has taken shape
under her guidance for students willing to improve their professional and
academic pursuits. Apart from academic responsibilities, she has also
performed important administrative duties like holding the office of the
PRO, NSIT(erstwhile) taking charge of the printing of official publications.
Another responsibility is having held the responsibility of girls’ hostel
twice.
