Yes, Chandigarh University allows students in the Liberal Arts programme to combine subjects like Economics and Political Science. The course structure is flexible and designed to encourage interdisciplinary learning. For example, students take core courses such as Economy, Politics and Society and International Relations and Diplomacy in early semesters. Later, they can choose electives that focus more on either Economics or Political Science. This combination helps students understand both the economic and political aspects of global and national issues. Such flexibility is great for students who want to explore multiple perspectives and prepare for careers in areas like policy-making, government, research, or even journalism. Chandigarh University supports this approach to ensure students gain a broad, modern, and relevant education.

You can certainly puruse CFA however, why not dip your hands first in Financial Modelling and Evaluation? It will certainly open more pathways besides being a chartered financial Analyst. 

Find Short term courses (6-10 month period), that also give you a taste of practical experience/ projects so that it builds up not only your knowledge but also your experience confidence.

Personally I know one such institute that does a great job. IIM Skills Financial Modelling and Evaluation was something my friend enrolled not too long back and he only had good words to say.

You should of course look into other options as well. But he mentioned he greatly benefitted from their inhouse work as well as assistance post his curriculum to break into the field of finance. Hope this helps! Cheers!
