A degree in English serves as a platform to “discover” a student’s innate yearning for literature and language. It offers a wide and expansive scope for research and higher studies. The Humanities is an emerging field in India, and one of the fastest growing, too. However, students are sometimes hesitant to apply to this programme as they are not quite aware of what lies ahead after completion of the course. Job opportunities are aplenty in the private and public sectors, such as in Schools and Colleges for teaching the subject, Civil Services, Content Writing, Journalism, Banking and related sectors, International Organizations, NGOs, and Consultancy firms.
