My Major..... Job outlook?

College Majors
1

<p>Hello all, I am a Chemistry-Business major. I love chemistry but I do know want to be stuck in a lab all of my life, so I would like to work in the Business end of it, if my plan doesn't work out. Not to be confused, This is not a double major. It is a B.S. Chemistry-Business major.</p>

<p>I have a 3.2 GPA and it will most likely rise, and my goal is to go to Pharmacy school AFTER I get a BS. I think my Degree will help me get a pharmacy school spot.</p>

<p>However, If I decide that I do not like the idea (After 4 years) of going back to school for 4 more for pharmacy school, I can apply to a program at my current school that Will allow me to obtain a B.S. in Chemistry and an MBA. (If you apply, you stay one more year and thats when the Degree is a double degree) so that is 5 years. Not bad.</p>

<p>My other notion is, what if I decide I want just a Bachelors. What are my job outlooks with this degree? I feel like I would be at a disadvantage at any job unless it is pharmaceutical sales. </p>

<p>Finally, My last option is after this year to switch my major to accounting. All my credits would keep me on pace and I could still graduate in 4 years. </p>

<p>I am really confused and I would love to go to pharmacy school. But I do not know if I can take 7 more years of schooling(6 if this year is included). I have work ethic and will, I don't party and I am a good student.</p>

<p>What are my possibilties? I am very broad with Chemistry-Business but I don't want to be at a disadvantage if that is all I have.....</p>

<p>I research on alot of careers or what i may like. I read that if you like chemistry there are things you can do with chemistry. chemical engineering, a teacher that works in chemistery, or some type of lab doctors. if you minor buisness with more chemistry i’m sure that be good i don’t know what job titles there are for chemistry buisness but i’d search up: chemical engineering, teaching, doing labs at doctors/hospitals</p>

<p>Pharmaceutical advertising and marketing seems like a perfect fit for the chemistry-business joint degree…</p>

<p>They are always looking for people with the science background…</p>
