For a career in think tanks (like ORF, CPR, ICWA) or practical policy analysis, the theoretical MA programs are excellent for academic research but often lack the professional skills training (policy memos, stakeholder mapping, consulting) you are looking for.
In India, new-age private universities have adopted the "global policy school" model, offering the most practical, think-tank-aligned training.

Good question — CUET subject choices don't lock you out of professional programs like BBA or Journalism.
How CUET Subjects Work
- CUET requires you to attempt at least one language + domain subjects + general test.
- You chose English, History, Political Science.
- For BBA/Management programs, most universities look at English + General Test scores.
- For Journalism/Media programs, they usually consider English + General Test, sometimes with weightage to humanities subjects (History/Pol. Sci.).
Colleges Accepting Your Combination
- Delhi University (DU) – BBA (FIA), BMS, Journalism (Hons) → requires English + General Test.
