Undergraduate Majors & Jobs

<p>So I'm in my final year of HS and university applications are really soon. I'm interested in Psychology, Sociology and Kinesiology. Sure I can go apply for a BA in one of those, but just what kind of job opportunities are there?</p>

<p>I want to go to Law School and all, or graduate school in Psychology, but it's really hard to get in, and it's important to have options. </p>

<p>It's great to go to university and study what you're really passionate about, but career opportunities are really important once you leave.</p>

<p>So my question is, what majors generally have more opportunities at the end?</p>

<p>all of them that arent ridiculous.<br>
If you really want some type of job that is especially relevant to your major, you are probably going to be lookin at business or engineering. Or else grad school is the best bet for getting a job somehow related to your interests. </p>

<p>You know that most people work in a field that is in no way similar to their major, right?</p>

<p>your undergrad major doesn't really matter</p>

<p>just do something that interests you so that you can build up a really good GPA which will help you way more than the major you choose</p>

<p>"You know that most people work in a field that is in no way similar to their major, right?" Yeah but at the same time, you can still limit yourself if you choose a particular major that is useless.</p>

<p>I'll probably just go ahead and major what I'm interested in for now, and see where that takes me. Who knows though. Thanks guys. ;P</p>

<p>"Yeah but at the same time, you can still limit yourself if you choose a particular major that is useless."</p>

<p>Yes, that's true, but nothing that you're looking at is useless. </p>

<p>Kinesiology is probably the most "impressive" of the majors that you list. I think that if you're interested enough to be serious about Psych or Sociology, you'll be able to go far with them, but the former has a reputation of being kind of a 'fall back' major while the latter is often seen as being pretty easy. Neither is really known for its rigor. These stereotypes aren't necessarily deserved (I took one psych and one soc class and absolutely loved both, so this isn't meant as a dig), but they are there. </p>

<p>I still don't think you'd be too limited by any of the three as long as you applied yourself. "I'll probably just go ahead and major what I'm interested in for now, and see where that takes me" is an excellent course of action.</p>

<p>Good luck :)</p>
