Major Questions

<p>dabate, major in something you love.</p>

<p>The rest will come.</p>

<p>There are careers that may be of interest to you that don’t even exist today. There is no question that the intersection of public policy, science, economics and public health will create a huge sector (think of the industrial/military complex which grew up after WW2) which will have opportunities for people who understand the legislative process, economics, and medicine.</p>

<p>So find something you are passionate about and go for it. The rest will follow.</p>

<p>fyi- I would not waste time or energy on a second major at Yale. It will be hard enough finishing your senior thesis in one topic. Take a broad range of classes that interest you instead of a second major- it will pay much greater dividends. Your summer job sounds fantastic and will probably open many doors for you down the road.</p>

<p>And agree that you should be tapping into Career services whenever it’s relevant.</p>

<p>And checking the internal Yale database for employment opportunities for next Fall once you’re back on campus. You could end up working in the nursing school, law school, some institute you’ve never heard of which will open up a broad range of possibilities.</p>
