What are some good Majors at UCI

<p>majors other than engineering or medical related that have good employment after graduation or after earning a masters</p>

<p>Comp sci is the best major on campus.</p>

<p>/thread</p>

<p>Well, honestly, you should just go with whatever you like then go onto something you want, since even if you go with medical, if you don’t like it, you’re not going to go through with it as well. I mean, the job I want might fit your description, I guess. Actuary is a risk analyst position that involves a lot of math and mostly requires these 10 special tests, think about like, MCAT x 10. You don’t have to take all of them, but how it goes is:
Pass 3/4 tests=out on the job market for a 60k a year job, pretty good chance too
Pass 6 tests=Get any job you want, 6 figure salary average
Pass 10 tests=Godlike</p>

<p>And yeah, the process is highly weighted towards the tests you complete and towards internships and job experience and less towards the college you went through and GPA and all that, and it only requires a Bachelors’.</p>

<p>But it’s not a career path to choose if you don’t like math. You just have to make up your mind as to what you really like, or find something that you do, since even if it has super employment opportunity, you’re going to be doing it for the next 25 years+ and it should preferably something you like (not just something you can live with)</p>

<p>woo future Comp Sci. major!!! Spooky how are the professors? I can’t wait to take CS classes since my high school didn’t have any and computers are like the only think I’ve ever been truly interested to learn about. I read programming textbooks for my English class :P</p>

<p>how is the criminology program?</p>

<p>Criminology is one of the best in the country. Even before the Law School opened, the grad program consistently ranked in the top five.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>grad =/= undergrad! huge differences!
graduate programs are build around you and your professor doing original research and publishing it. undergrad is based around taking classes and… passing those classes.</p>

<p>^I second that.</p>

<p>They’re different, but to suggest that good grad programs are not related to good ugrad programs is also wrong.</p>

<p>Do you know anyone, personally, that is doing this program? I want to go to law school. But, if law school doesn’t work out I would like to have a backup plan. Advice? Hints?</p>

<p>double major in Quantitative Economics and Mathematics with an emphasis on Statistics. This will make you well rounded for a number of fields. I can’t think of a single job outside of health or engineering which you wouldn’t be qualified for if major alone were the single metric.</p>
