What To Do With Your Major


NOTE FROM THE DIRECTOR: The fact is that very few jobs require a specific major. Some do, but for the most part your academic experience at the collegiate level teaches you how to learn, which is a very valuable skill in the wider world. However, students do need to major in something, and we hope with all our heart that you major in something you really enjoy. That should lead you to work you really enjoy, as well. Following are some career suggestions. There are more career resources available to you in Careers & Calling.
