Ujjain (Madhya Pradesh): A special lecture on “Career Prospects in English Literature and Language” was organised by the department of English, Government Madhav College.
What was distinctive about the programme was that from start to finish it was executed by the PG students of English. Expert resource person, Dr Hemant Gahlot, professor and head, department of English, Government Girls Post-Graduate College, said that ample job opportunities are there for students with masters in English.
Also in the present context of digitalization, the job market is full of newer careers unheard of before like blogging, content writing, product promotion, e-marketing, copy writing and many more.
