Priya Mahajan · Answer

Hi Congratulations for your academics so far. A lot depends on your interest. First I would suggest you check your interest because a student can give his best only if he is passionate about something. You can go for BCA MCA a dual degree or integrated degree course if you are interested in the application of computers. You can opt B.Com MBA a dual degree/ integrated course with a specialisation of finance or such related filed. The best is that you check the website of LPU where all the details of the various courses have been stated in detail. This will help you to check your interest. You can also check from the given link: https://www.lpu.in/admission/career_assessment.php and you will get guidance for your career. The LPU website has contacts of counselors also who can guide you for a career of your choice. Seats are filling fast so take admission by 30th June for best benefits. Good Luck!

Humanities is a diverse stream and primarily deals with subjects like literature, Sociology, Psychology, Political Science etc. The career horizon for those who belong to this stream of study is limit less. You can choose from a range of career options such as teaching, social work, law, politics, business, television, journalism etc. However since you mentioned mathematics there can be some interesting options that you can pursue: BA in Economics: This focuses on social Science with quantitative approach. If you want to solve the why problem to poverty, healthcare, demand-supply then Economics is good. Research in Political Science and Sociology: You can choose to use statistical approach to study the state, nation, government, and politics and policies of government, at the international as well as international levels. You can choose to work on economic conditions, world terrorism, international relations, environmental issues, social issues. Corporate/Global Journalism: If you have the flair of weaving words into well written articles or the knack of verbal communication then take this up. You can be exposed to subjects such as politics, social and economic issues, entertainment and work with actual global statistics to make your analysis about social and economic situations. Civil Services: If you have good grasp on your subjects and inspired by the idea of serving our nation than IAS is a good route. Business lawyers: If you are very good with numbers and have the will power for intense academic pursuit then this is a good option. You can go with career of your choice, but choosing a good university will help you. Have a look over list of programs on www.lpu.in. Connect to LPU admission counselors on 1800-102-4431. I hope it helps. Good Luck!

Hello Ujjaval, Since your question is relevant for many students who are completing their 12th from humanities stream, I would like to share that there are a whole lot of options to choose from. Those with an interest in Psychology, Economics, English, History & International Relations may typically choose a B.A. (Hons) in the same stream B.A. Hons Psychology, B.A. Hons History & International Relations and so on). Having mathematics in class 12 can open up your option to apply for B.A. (Hons) Economics as well. However, if you wish to opt for a course that you may not have had in 12th grade you can look at B.A. B. Des courses, B.Com Law courses, B.A. LL.B. Or BBA LL.B. Or Journalism, Media & Communication as some options. These days Liberal Education offered at universities allow students to take a combination of courses from across disciplines, and a lot of students are opting for the same these days. IILM University Gurugram, Flame University offer some exciting combinations. It is interesting to note that students take papers from Psychology while studying B.Com (Hons) to understand Behavioural Finance for instance. Alternatively they might study papers from Journalism, Media and Communication while studying B.A. (Hons) Economics. The eligibility criteria varies across different universities/courses and so it is better if you check the websites for any entrance test/interview round that the university is holding. At IILM University, courses in Management, Humanities & Social Sciences, Design & Fashion, Law and Technology are offered (www.iilm.edu.in). Options are many, but the choice lies with the student!
