Organizational Sciences

<p>I recently got into my dream school but didn't get into the program I wanted. It was the only school I know of that even had that major so in the end it doesn't matter all that much, plus they said I could always try and do an internal transfer sophomore year. </p>

<p>I want to have a good back up plan if that doesn't work out though. I really want to go into political management/campaign work. Would a major in organizational sciences combined minor of political science be a good undergraduate degree for that? I've heard that communications is considered a weak degree so I'm kind of scared to do that.</p>

<p>Your major doesn’t matter so much in politics as your contacts and experience. </p>

<p>Political science, economics, pr, marketing, advertising, business, psychology, anthropology, sociology, history could all be of practical help. </p>

<p>Dare I suggest that Organizational Sciences is in the same league as Communications in that it’s a relatively new degree title and while it has lots of breadth it doesn’t give you enough depth in anything. I’d pick English, English Literature, Linguistics, a foreign language or Journalism over Communications.</p>

<p>I’m really not interested in English or language really though. Wouldn’t organizational sciences be more along the lines of management? Maybe business then? I don’t really know what a business major learns</p>
