Ravindra B. Tasildar, M.A., Ph.D.

Abstract

It has been noticed in the recent years that stakeholders of higher education in India seem to be unaware of job market scenario for subjects offered in the discipline of Humanities. English is one of the important languages studied under Humanities in Indian Universities. The study of English language and literature provides immense employment opportunities to the students specializing in English at the undergraduate and post graduate levels. This informative research article aims to acquaint teachers and students with career opportunities in English. It is broadly divided into three parts. The first part deals with the current scenario of Humanities education in India. The second part deals with the inevitability of English. The third part deals with some off-beat career opportunities in English.

Keywords: Career opportunities, English, Enrollments, Employment, Opportunities Abroad

English is one of the important languages studied under Humanities in the HEIs across India. English being a skill subject, its importance is different from other subjects offered in Humanities.
