Yes, the University of Delhi (DU) offers a Bachelor of Arts (BA) program in History and Political Science. Students can also pursue a dual degree program at DU, which allows them to study two degrees simultaneously, one in regular mode and the other through Open and Distance Learning (ODL).

  • Students can pursue one degree in regular mode at a DU college or department.
  • The second degree can be pursued through ODL at the School of Open Learning.
  • Students must meet the academic requirements for each degree separately.
  • Students cannot pursue two similar degrees, such as B.Com (Hons.) and B.Com (Pass).
  • To avoid studying the same mandatory courses twice, the compulsory courses from the first program will replace similar requirements in the second.

hi ,

the Delhi university does not offer a specific joint honours course program combining history and political science . however, students interested in both discipline can enroll in the BA program which allows for combination of subjects including history and political science .

BA program (history + political science )

structure - this program enables students to study both History and Political Science simultanously providing comprehensive understanding of both fields ,

students can choose core courses from both the disciplines , tailoring their subjects in the subject .

alternative option -

if you are prefer a more focused study in one discipline while still engaging with other , you , might consider

  • BA (hons) in history or political science with a generic elective - enrolled in BA hons program with either history or political science and select the other subject as generic elective . for instance - student pursuing BA hons in political science can choose history has generic elective .

hope the helps



Delhi University does not offer a joint honours course in History and Political Science. However, you have two options:

1. B.A. Programme (History + Political Science) – You can study both subjects together in physical mode.

2. B.A. (Hons.) in History or Political Science – Choose one as your major and the other as a Generic Elective (GE).

All classes are conducted in person.
