Curriculum Overview

The BA syllabus builds gradually: early semesters cover core concepts, while later semesters concentrate on History-specific application. Core and elective areas include Ancient & Medieval History, Modern Indian History, World History, Historical Research Methods, delivered via e-learning modules, structured study guides, case-based assignments and scheduled contact classes. Learners submit assignments and appear for term-end examinations that test both conceptual understanding and applied problem-solving. Undergraduate learners build up from foundational concepts before moving into applied, specialization-specific coursework.

Learning Outcomes

  • On completing this BA course, learners should be able to: use History principles to solve practical, work-related problems
  • show working knowledge of historical research methods and archival documentation
  • apply critical analysis of sources and academic writing confidently
  • and communicate outcomes clearly to colleagues or clients. These outcomes are pitched at building a strong entry-level skill base.
