Is it necessary to pursue MA or M.Ed in order to become a lecturer? How can I pursue Ph.D?

If you are an arts student and interested in lectureship, then You have to prepare for UGC NET exam. UGC NET is the test for students who are willing to pursue their career further as a Junior Research Fellow or an Assistant Professor. But you have to pass the eligibility criteria for NET exam.

Hi, For lecturer: Post-graduate degree with minimum 55% marks in the discipline relevant to the area of specialization. (ii)Post-graduate degree in Education (M. Ed. /M.A. Education and B.Ed.) with minimum 55% marks. You have to qualify UGC NET also. Thanks.
