Which is better course in terms of job prospects ba philosophy or ba English if graduated from du

Divyyanaa Hazarika 9th Jul, 2019

Hello Aspirant,

It seems like you are curious regarding your academic selection of a subject. Both the subjects have different scopes in future and that's not exactly what must drive you for the selection of your subject. At the end of the day, it will be you who have to study the materials and books and thus a good inclination and liking towards the subject should be there. 

B.A. English : A Bachelor's degree in English literature is a degree full of multidimensional prospects. There are several varied fields where you can work based on your language degree. You can go for administrative jobs, teaching jobs, mass-media, etc. The scope of an English undergraduate degree is seemingly higher than Philosophy. 

B.A. Philosophy : The study of philosophy requires one to have logistic and critical analysis of the subject. The ability to understand beyond the ordinary is what makes philosophy interesting . However, the job prospects of the subject are narrow in comparison to English. You can add additional degrees with it e.g. IT, Law, etc. You can go for Civil services as well or even can venture into content writing jobs and counselling jobs. 

I hope this information helps you. Good luck!

Can I take economics, geography, philosophy for fashion designing career

Ayesha Siddiqa 19th Apr, 2019
Hi sayanti,
Fashion design is a subject and field of clothing and it's designing.
If you choose the philosophy, economics and geography , they are not relatable subjects with this field.
These subjects will not be useful for you in future, if you want to go with fashion designing.
In fact , this course need skills of creativity and hands. You can take side courses like chemistry which will help you to understand the composition of the fibres, you can learn stitching which is a must for fashion designing students.
Take those subjects which can be linked with your subject which you want to pursue.
If you are interested in the above courses mentioned in the question you can only take economics because in, future if you want to setup your business that will be helpful for you at that time.
Or if you are more interested in the above 3 subjects you can go with them but still have interest in fashion design you can do diploma in it.
All will work , just you have to mix up the ingredients correctly.
All the best!
