The English and Foreign Languages University (EFLU), Hyderabad, will launch its academic programmes at its newly opened Malappuram centre on January 31.
The launch of two certificate courses in proficiency of English and French will mark the end to a long wait for the EFLU programmes in Malappuram.
Although the beginning of statutory programmes in different foreign languages will be a little far, the proficiency certificate courses in English and French will be a small but firm step towards a full-fledged EFLU campus in Malappuram, said P. Ubaidulla, MLA.
EFLU’s programmesP. Madhavan, EFLU Registrar, said here on Thursday that the government and the university were keen to launch the flagship programmes of EFLU in Malappuram.
However, he admitted that technical issues had adversely affected the opening of the campus on time.
Proficiency coursesThe proficiency courses to be launched in English and French will be of three months’ duration.
Classes will be held from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. on weekdays from Monday through Friday.

The seats would be offered on a first-come, first-served basis, said Prof. Madhavan.
