I would like to suggest you to opt for political science over history. Although history is also not a bad option but the way career in political science is increasing, it made me say this. If you have studied political science as a subject in your graduation or post graduation level, you have plenty of options available besides being a politician. In the government sector, a wide range of government occupations, from urban planning to legislature to intelligence bodies, are available for those with a major in political science. It is a common belief that political science graduates are all just made for politics and govt. agencies, but that's not true. In India, with this degree, you can make your career in journalism (You can prepare political reports, articles, blogs and interviews for print and online publications, as well as television and radio broadcasts), or can do research (you can write UGC-NET exam. After clearing it, you will be eligible to work as lecturer and pursue Ph.D side by side). Hence, by opting for political science, you can have almost any type of job provided that you must have to be dedicated to your studies and choose your college wisely. Hope this helps.
Best of luck.

Hi,
Since BTC is a two year regular course, you may look for distance courses in any of the subjects you wish to specialize in like B.A/M.A mathematics, psychology, education etc. You may also pursue online courses related to education, education management, education technology etc from portals like coursera.org, EdX. Another option is ignou that offers certificate courses related to psychology, child development, counselling, blended learning, curriculum designing, policy making, subject specific certificate courses are also available. Check few online courses at EdX here:

Hope this gives you the fair idea of what all you can do with BTC. The only caution you need to take is balancing the two courses simultaneously as it might require lot of rigour.

Distance or Correspondence degrees have been gaining lot of traction nowadays, but major missing with this mode of learning is practical exposure and live face to face as well as peer learning, major group participating activities which evolves values like Team Building Entrepreneurship and Leadership.
In my opinion, distance degrees are only recommended if you have suitable work experience of more than 10 plus years and you don't have time to quit your job or simultaneously pursue any degree.
It is always recommended to take up full time courses be it UG or PG, because only then you would receive in depth grasping of fundamentals and you can see an all-round development in all areas.
Undoubtedly, distance degrees add up your work experience while you're graduation is ongoing, but at the sake of partial learning and limited growth curve which is potentially degrades its value and is of least importance as you go up the ladder.
Half knowledge is always dangerous as the saying goes, is so true here.
Hence, correspondence or distance arts courses are definitely not recommended.

On top of this, with more experience aspirants will also be able to open their own corporate or consultancies. Those with more experience can apply for jobs with institutes of management or with multi national companies. Educational institutions and the finance sector also provide good job prospects for students of Economics.
Candidates with BA Economics can also take up teaching as a career.

JBT is a full-time course. I can't suggest you any parallel course. Rather I'd say, you must focus on JBT for brighter future.
Once you've completed your JBT, you'd most likely go for following career choices:
1. B.Ed: By pursuing this course, you can upgrade your skills as a teacher.
2. Appear in CTET exam, as D.Ed and JBT candidates are eligible for it.
3. You can pursue other graduate-level courses too.
But once you've entered the path of becoming a noble teacher, you must keep your reins in the vicinity of teaching aura only.
It is not important how you complete too many courses parallelly and grab a career. More important is to complete every course you take up and become excellent at what you've learned till now.
Even then if you want parallel courses then I would refer: ETE (Elementary Teacher Education), NTT (Nursery Teacher Training), TTC (Teachers Training Certificate) and D.Ed as parallel courses.

Hi,
DAV College, Sector 10 is one of the best colleges in Chandigarh for BA as they give you golden opportunities to prove yourself in academics as well as in co-curricular activities. It leaves MCM college way too far behind.
I am also doing my BA 2nd year in DAV and I must say that the college is just brilliant, teachers are so supportive and have so much subject knowledge that you can clear your doubts very easily. The elections, parties and competitions give you so much confidence to speak in public at any situation. All the people who take admissions in other colleges later regret as DAV attracts them, so if you don't want to regret then fill the form today only as today is the last day to apply for admissions. This is the official website of DAV where you can get knowledge about your course and the subjects provided by them and your eligibility:

Hi,
As a student, Mounts gives you a ton of exposure and freedom. The college is best known for its humanities faculty hence, making it the best college in Bangalore for humanities. There are some other best reasons for you to choose the college as well. Such as:
There will be a fest at least once a month with food trucks and stalls, so great food to look out for.
It's a mixed crowd that provides a ton of exposure.
The dress code is relatively lenient compared to other institutions in the city.
You can dye your hair pink or go bald. There will always be people to judge you but there will also be a group of people who admire you for being yourself.
Coffee with vada in the degree canteen is a delicacy on cold, winter mornings.
