When Devaswom Board College, Sasthamcotta was established in 1964 as a junior college, Economics was one of the main subjects taught in the Pre-Degree course and only one member, Sri E.G. Govindan Namboothiri, taught the course. Later in 1967 the college was upgraded and during that year itself a B.A degree with Economics as main subject with Politics and History as subsidiary subjects was started. In 1981 Economics became the first post graduate course instituted in this college. Ever since the Department of Economics has been making great strides with an average of 40 Students in the PG level and 220 in the UG level. The academic year 2017-2018 was the Golden Jubilee year of the department.
