if i am came from an science background then which is better subj for me to choose in ba ( humanities or political science) to become an gov lecturer in college???
Humanities:
-
Pros:
- If your science background is in a field that complements humanities (like psychology or neuroscience for literature), it can offer a unique perspective.
-
Broader range of subjects to choose from (English, History, Philosophy, etc.) which might align better with your interests.
-
Cons:
- Might require more foundational coursework in humanities compared to Political Science (depending on the specific program).
-
Job market for general humanities lecturers in government colleges might be more competitive than Political Science.
Political Science:-
Pros:
- Directly relevant to government and policy, giving you a strong foundation for teaching future civil servants.
- Many government colleges have a high demand for Political Science lecturers.
-
You can potentially leverage your science background to specialize in areas like Science & Technology Policy.
- Cons:
-
Less variety in subjects compared to Humanities.
For a government college lecturer position, Political Science seems like a more strategically relevant choice due to its direct connection to governance. However, if you have a strong interest and background in a specific humanities field, it can still be a viable option.
I hope this helps you make an informed decision!

Pros:
Government lecturer does not require to be specific in particular area it purely depends on your choice and interest area Political scientists and humanities are in demand in academia, government agencies, think tanks, and international organizations. A masters degree can lead to opportunities in these sectors.After your Master's when you have to clear your UGC-NET/JRF exam either you go for Lecturership or Research its upon your interest.
