Six-Subject Exploration Mode
The syllabus covers English Literature, History, Political Science, Economics, Sociology, and Psychology. It is built for students who want to taste everything before picking their main character arc.
Placement Reality Check
Only 40% of the 2025 batch secured campus placements. Most successful grads leverage Chandigarh's coaching hubs for UPSC, SSC, and media gigs. Treat this as a launchpad, not a conveyor belt.
The verdict
Worth considering
Panjab University's B.A. wins on affordability and subject breadth, but the 40% placement rate means you need a self-directed plan. It is a strong option if you are preparing for government exams, media roles, or a master's pivot — less so if you expect a guaranteed campus job.
