Which would be a better choice in terms of job opportunities- ba eng hons or ba philosophy hons?
dear aspirant,
B.A english honours and BA philosophy have different scopes and opportunities each of either are given below:
If by scope you mean getting a job right after graduation, there are chances of getting a job after philosophy honors in fields like content writing, counselling etc. As you may know, most of the graduates nowadays either stick to pursuing higher education or taking up professional courses in most sought after institutions with good enough placements. Though graduating with a philosophy honors degree will not be enough to get into good postion you can still opt for higher studies.
1. Work in any Newspaper as a writer, sub-editor, proof-reader or even as a reporter.
2. Teach in schools or colleges (NET)
3. Go for HR/PR in corporate
4. Start a blog/vlog to teach English
5. Become a writer
6. Become a translator
7. Become a soft-skills trainer.
you can also write and qualify NET and JRF to do Phd and become a professor in university , but you need to enroll in M.A course for this.
hope it helped.
