The Department of Economics one of the founding department of the college.  In 1946 college was upgraded to a first grade degree college offering instruction in the two years degree course in B.A. (Economics). According to the new educational setup in 1956, the University of Madras granted permission for opening Pre-University Course and three years B.A. Economics degree course. During the year 1977-78 department of Economics was converted into Department of Public Relations due to its more employability.
