Shriram Dear Shriram, While academia is a traditional path, there are many other exciting opportunities to explore in India across research, administration, social work practice across NGOs and non-profits, government organisations, CSR initiatives, counselling and therapy, policy and planning as a policy analyst, urban planner or a social development consultant.
