Introduction
The Master of Arts (MA) is a two-year graduate program
that focuses on the study of arts, humanities, and select branches of social
science. The MA curriculum is designed to teach students how to think
critically, examine arguments, and express their own opinions. Discussion is a
big part of most MA degree programs.
Those who earn an MA in fields like sociology,
literature, and psychology might find satisfying careers both in India and
abroad. There is a large pool of private and public sector employment prospects
in India and overseas for graduates of this program.
