Overall, there are many courses available for students who complete 12th in Arts, and they can choose a course that aligns with their interests and career goals.
Author: DR.N.V. Srinivasa Rao Post Date: 14 May 2023 A student who completed 12th with the arts and humanities stream are having plenty of options to take up further courses and to have a great career.
The selection of the course will completely depend upon the interest and aptitude of the candidate. A student who is interested in languages can go for BA with language as a special subject in optional subjects. That student can go for MA after completing BA and start working as a lecturer. If the student desires a PhD also can be carried out.
In the same way, there are many subjects to be selected in this stream and can go for PG in the same subject after UG. Once PG is completed they will have openings based on the subject they studied.
After completing the 12th class, the student can also go for B.Com and plan his further studies and career as per his interest. I think a commerce graduate will have many job options also without even a master's degree.
A student who completed his 12th class can undergo teacher's training and start a career as a teacher. They can be absorbed in Secondary grade teaching posts both in high schools and primary schools.
After completing BA or B Com, the student can think of going for B. Ed and can start working as B Ed assistant in high schools.
A student who completed BA or B Com can also go for an LLB course and get into the judiciary line. A good lawyer these days can earn lucrative amounts as a law practitioner.
An arts stream candidate after BA or B Com can think of doing MBA which will open doors for many management jobs in private corporates and even in the public sector also.
There are many social science research institutes and students who completed their MA can join as Research officers and even do their PhD in the concerned subject.
There are fellowships for postgraduate in arts and humanities and the NET-qualified candidates can get these fellowships and work for their doctorate degree.
All these graduates and postgraduates are eligible for civil service posts, UPSC posts, Group I, Group II, and Group III jobs also in state government and central government offices.
PhD candidates can work as Assistant Professors, Associate Professors and Professors in universities and PG colleges.
In addition to the above, there are some special fields like design, fashion designing. Travel & Hospitality, Journalism & Mass Communication, Fine Arts, Mass Media etc. These are all very good courses and can be useful to work as executives in those areas in organisations.
There are some job opportunities even after the 12th class. Bank assistants, Group IV posts in state government and many more private jobs are available for 12th passed students also. After the 12th class, individuals can think of starting their own small businesses and flourish slowly in that field also.
So, I believe there are plenty of options for arts and humanities people also. But the main problem is competition is very high. There are many colleges and people join any one college and complete their graduation and PG also. So only those candidates who concentrate and focus on their studies and obtain expertise in the field of their study will get excellent jobs. So, success depends on the hard and smart work of the individual.
I am of the opinion that irrespective of the subject we are studying if we pursue the course with sincerity and obtain top rank, definitely chances of getting a job are plenty
I always say that our qualification only matters in obtaining a job. After that, success depends on how we use the opportunity and showcase our talent in discharging our duties in the position we are working.
