The B.Ed subjects and graduation subject are separate. Every B.Ed college follows the NCTEs approved syllabus. All universities offer theory papers that cover topics such as educational philosophy, educational psychology, school administration, learning theories, educational thinkers etc., even though the titles and authors of the books may vary. Additionally, methodological papers are required for all B.Ed. courses, and they require you to select one school topic and one language.
