<p>yeah, that's what liberal arts is for, right? To enrol in different courses and find out your real passion.</p>
<p>I am looking forward to major in physics and go into academia.</p>
<p>But political science and philosophy are very interesting for me, so I might go into that field too.</p>

<p>Well I'm an international who lives in US (and has for many years) and I plan on getting my education here and getting the heck out!!</p>
<p>My thoughts are that the EU is going to be the next big power. So...I'll probably move to Europe. I want to work for the BBC, and the UN would be very, very cool.</p>
<p>well, maybe i'm yet too young to think about it but I'd like to major in business, to become a manager. My dream is to live in the US!</p>
<p>Do you guys ever thought to working in Asia?like China , I think Asia would be another powerful area in the future, Euro already is powerful, you can live your life peacefully there.</p>
<p>i don't think so. i think that the next big power it's gonna be China or India</p>
<p>Your are right , I am a Chinese, when I was in Shanghai ,I met lots of guys from States, they told me that Shanghai is already another NYC, and most of them came to Shanghai for jobs, because the living expense in China is much cheaper than other Countries, they could enjoy their life better here.</p>
<p>giulia90 - "i think that the next big power it's gonna be China or India"</p>
<p>Why india?</p>
<p>I think the next big powers will be the EU and China. I think China's ascent will be quiet, but powerful.</p>
<p>I've lived in Asia and would live there again. I would consider living in: Singapore, China, Japan, Vietnam, Indonesia.</p>
<p>Maybe Malaysia if the money was good, but never India or the Philippines!</p>
<p>i heard it is impossible to find a job in these asian countries. </p>
<p>Is that true? If not what kind of jobs can american educated people get in Asia?</p>
<p>It depends on if you are asian or not. If you are, then it will be pretty easy for you. If you're white like me...hah, good luck.</p>
<p>Unless it's an international company, in which case you would only have an expat contract, and those don't last for too long. 5 years tops. You could go for a local package, but those benefits are much lower.</p>
<p>what kind of jobs are you talking about? what industry?</p>
<p>I'm double majoring in biology and philosophy in IWU.
My career plans for now:
1. Work for an environmental organization or such (applying bioethics in the field), or
2. Go get MD/PhD and teach a liberal arts college, or
3. Get MD and maybe work for the Red Cross or Medecin Sans Frontieres</p>
<p>Many of the international students I know who came to the US got a practical training visa for a year after they graduated, and then they had time to find an employer or somebody to sponsor them to stay in the US. Also, I think you can easily stay if you continue on to graduate school in the US. But of course you may have to leave eventually.</p>
