What you will study

To complete a double-major B.A., the major in Modern Indian Studies, is combined with a second equivalent subject, which can be chosen from the wide range of subjects offered by other faculties. Modern Indian Studies thus offer the unique opportunity to develop an out-of-the-European perspective on global issues, in combination with a subject mainly focused on Europe or North America, such as sociology, political science or history.
