Hello Aspirant,

Hope your doing good

Both the subjects are of equal significance, it is just a matter of separate career options. History and Political Science are the prime subjects of Arts. These subjects are a great source of knowledge as well as doors to several career opportunities.

As a student if you are confused about which subject to pursue ahead, prioritise your requirements and retrospect your subject of interest for your future.

if u r interested in POLITICAL AFFAIRS then go for political science. But if it is not about the latest political affairs then go for HISTORY. According to a survey done by TIMES INDIA ……

nowadays…. the ratio between political honours & HISTORY HONOURS stands for 55% and 45% respectively.

Civil Services. A career in civil services such as the IAS (Indian Administrative Service) and IFS (Indian Foreign Services) is one of the most popular choices for those studying political science. ...

Politics. ...

Law. ...

Political Scientist. ...

Social Service. ...

Journalism. ...

Marketing. ...

Teaching.

Archaeology. The work of an archaeologist can be research-based or field-related. ...

Museology. ...

Museum curators. ...

Archivists. ...

Historians. ...

History experts. .

Teachers.

Thankyou, Good luck for everything ahead :)

Dear Applicant,

I hope you are doing well.

Both programmes are good in their own way. Bachelor's degree will give you a round off knowledge of various things. A simple ba certificate may not give you a high value, as you will just be learning alot of different stuff in general. Were as in Honours you will be doing a specialization with 1 of the subjects. In doing specialization you get more knowledge in depth. If you want to go in the field of teaching it would be better if you have a specialization degree.

Hope this helps. All the best.
