about the Department of History

HISTORY OF THE DEPARTMENT

Sir Syed College was established in the year 1967 by the Kannur District Muslim Educational Association. The Muslims in Kannur, Calicut and Kasaragod District were educationally very backward in those days. Hence the college was established at Taliparamba mainly to cater the educational needs of the Muslims of those regions. The college is named after Sir Syed Ahammad Khan to perpetuate to the memory of this great leader, who was the pioneer of Muslim Educational Movement in India.

The College was started as a junior College in 1967 under the University of Kerala. With the establishment of Calicut University in 1968, it came under it. When the Kannur University came in to vogue in 1996, the College came under its affiliation. The College was upgraded in 1969 and B.A. History was established in the same year. With the commencement of the B.A. course in Functional English in 1997, the teachers of this department also began to engage classes for its subsidiary paper ‘Social and Cultural History of Britain’
