Afreen 22nd Jan, 2022

Hello,

B.A hons. Sociology and NID are two different fields one is a degree course and other is a professional course in designing.in b.a sociology it not only provides knowledge of the books but also provides knowledge more about fieldwork and practice. placement is decent as many companies visit for on campus placement.

NID also provides internship and placement to the students in designing field.so it is upto you which course you want to pursue.dont go for good value and placement college you end up with frustration after sometime if you are not interested in the field.

Hope you understand...

if I work as an assistant professor of sociology for 7 years including the orientation programme and refresher course n then do a 3 year PhD in sociology taking a study leave what will be my next designation

Parnika 13th Dec, 2021

Greetings,

If you have a seven-year teaching experience as an assistant professor in any college or university for the subject of sociology and then pursue a PhD then most probably you will be granted the post of an Associate Professor. However, you can pursue your PhD even without taking a leave from your teaching job.

Suchana Datta 10th Dec, 2021

Hi,

Factors which influence the CPGET 2021 cutoff are- difficulty level of CPGET exam, total number of candidates that have appeared for the entrance exam, allocated number of seats for each PG programme and overall cutoff trend of CPGET 2021.

Nizam College offers Undergraduate courses in the Faculties of Arts, Social Sciences, Commerce and Sciences with 45 seats for each specialization and 30 seats for rest each specialization.

There is no specific admission to courses for the candidates belonging to SC and ST category. The CPGET cutoff 2021 for general and OBC category candidates is 25 marks

Hope this helps

what is the condition dat students will get thru the interview for PhD in sociology r students who pass net get exemption from the PhD entrance exam

Aashiketa 7th Dec, 2021

Hi, there were many disputes going on about NET exam but, at the moment NET is only considered as an eligibility criteria and not as an screening process. So, in short No, there won't be any exemption for student who appeared for NET exam. Coming to interviews, they can last from 30 minutes to an hour depending on the interviewer as well as the candidate. The first 15 minutes are for your presentation on yourself. Rest is about your papers and academics. Hope this helps.

I am a arts student, I have subjects biology, psychology, chemistry and sociology. I wish to do bsc in psychology, my question is can I do bsc in psychology with the subjects i have in my 11th right now ?

Yaseera Bhombal 18th Nov, 2021

Hello Shruti,

Your subjects in 11th help you build your base and do help in deciding your subjects in future.

as you said you have to pursue psychology, its good that you already have psychology in your 11th, But make sure you select psychology for 10+2 as well.

After 12th you can opt for BSc psychology only if you have psychology in your boards exam

For more information on the course please check the link below:

https://www.careers360.com/courses/bsc-in-psychology

For some reason if you are unable to pursue BSc Psychology you can also go for BA in psychology

Hope that helps You

All the Best
