Archaeology

Hello Sneha,
Yes, you can pursue archeology. It's very typical subject but great possibilities.
Best wishes.

Once you complete your graduation, you can apply for post-graduation or Masters course in Deccan College at Pune or MS University at Baroda. These are the two best institutes catering to field archaeology in India. If you want to do it abroad, you can appear for the GRE exam to secure scholarship in any well-known university in USA or UK as they are the most sought after countries to study archaeology. Voracious reading is one of the most important requirements of this field.

Yes, you can apply for Masters in archaeological course, but as you don't have prior experience in archeology it may be difficult or deal.
Master's degree course is offered only by a few universities in India. The Department of Archaeology, University of Kerala, University Campus, Kariyavattom, Thiruvananthapuram is one of the institutions that offers the MA course in archaeology in the state. This is a two-year fulltime four-semester course having 12 seats.

Generally, an applicant must have completed his HSC education with history as a subject, but nowadays there are colleges which do exempt this requirement such as the MS University of Baroda. You must get in touch with the colleges directly.

Dear Manali,
Just check if IGNOU offers this course. It is a well established brand name in distance education and is internationally renowned. I hope this would suffice. All the best and god bless you.

Two degree in any way not permitted at a time in the rules in India. It is surprising that you are interested in two different career direction at same time. Think before it because it is related to your life than take any decision.

Hello Pawan,
Yes, it's perfectly possible to pursue archaeology as career option. Though it must be said that it's available at very few places as main subject of study. It's very interesting subject with huge scope to do research.
Best wishes.

In this regard, the first step towards becoming a successful archaeologist is to obtain a graduate degree. This could be in any discipline. However, it is preferable to have a Bachelors degree in history, sociology, or anthropology for a better understanding of the concepts of archaeology.
