Yes, Prachi there are various careers in Economics that you could delve into. There are three sections where economists could work in, Government and Public Enterprises, Industry and Trade and also Banking and Finance. Economists are also involved in forecasting, research, market analysis, management, finance and analysis of policy etc. To pursue Economics, you need to apply for an Arts degree in your graduation level, and then specialize in Economics in the Post Graduation Level. You could get jobs in the Indian Economic Service, Reserve Bank Services, Public sectors and Corporate companies.
