ABSTRACT

Present study has been conducted on 800 undergraduate students pursuing academic and professional courses in Rohilkhand region. The prime aim of the present study was to explore the impact of nature of course i.e. academic and professional courses on career aspirations of college going students. The results of the study showed the fact that students pursuing professional courses are having higher career aspirations in terms of more clear vision of career goals, higher achievement and leader aspirations and more determination towards their career progression than their counterparts pursuing academic courses. Hence policy makers should take into account while framing policies regarding employability skills in curriculum.

Key words: career aspirations, academic and professional courses
