I have done my b.a from IGNOU and I am pursuing my M.A from IGNOU as well. I aspire to become a college professor in English. Will I get a govt job on the basis of these degrees? Do govt jobs recognize and accept post graduates from IGNOU? I am worried.

Dear Aspirant,

You can surely apply for Govt jobs on the basis of post graduation from IGNOU as its a recognized university under UGC act .

To pursue a career as an English professor , you need to do M Phil-PhD in English language . Most of the universities conduct PhD entrance exam for various research fellowships. However , being a English postgraduate , you have options to join print or electronic media , make a career in creative writing apart from pursuing a career as English professor

Dear Aspirant,

You have selected the right course and Institute for a career ahead.

Nice to know about your aspiration to become a Professor of English.

You will surely get government jobs after MA English from IGNOU. IGNOU is a recognised Institute of the Govt of India. All courses are recognised by the industry too for employment.

Do not get worried anymore. Ensure that you get first class in MA English so that you stand a good chance for government jobs. For becoming a professor and to be in the teaching field, you will be required to appear for NET or SET exam conducted by UGC. Without NET or SET qualification, you will not be able to join any college - private or government - for teaching.

Further a PhD is recommended for more growth and stability in teaching field.

Best wishes
