    Hello,

    Most students pursuing MA in Rural Development are placed in organisations such as NGOs working on rural development, community mobilisation etc.

    However State rural livelihood missions also recruit students pursing this course.

    Hope this helped you and write to us in case of any further clarifications.

    Best wishes and regards,

    Anu Priya Babu
