Dictator Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Nursing. It's a recession proof profession, and one where you can get a job immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinfan2k Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 finance or accounting or logitics. I still would have done economics regardless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgold Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I might go for graphic design/annimation or I might actually really go for a writing degree now knowing how much networking within the right college environment could help. Heck, I'm still a dreamer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rincewind Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Two years ago I decided on history - I now realize that if I wanted to find a job (with the exception of teaching) I should have chosen something in the tech or engineering fields.

brianforster Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 One things for sure, I would not be getting a liberal arts degree. Probably Nursing, number one job in demand in MD right now and my friend is making 60k a year working at hopkins fresh out of college... Meanwhile with my same four years of schooling I can't make 30k in an office somewhere because my degree is useless. Oh the things they don't tell you during freshman advising..

I have a liberal arts degree and am making well over 30k Just give it a year or so struggling and you should be able to move up pretty fast. Anyway, if I went back I'd prolly major in poli sci and sociology again...Unless I went back to a school that had a public policy/administration program. The one thing I would do differently: I'd take more business/econ/management classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonnyRules Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I'd switch my major from Computer Science to "beancounting". The beancounters seem to run every company I have ever worked for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88Comrade2000 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Well, I just started college this month and will be getting a Health Information Technology degree. Anything in the healthcare field, because there will also be a job in the healthcare field or company that deals with healthcare in some way.

ECU-ALUM Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Library & Information Sciences...which is the Masters I am currently working on. If I had known then what I know about Radio & Television...I would've avoided it. Last Job I had cured me from ever wanting to go back into that field ever again.

The Brave Little Toaster Oven Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 International Business is my major....its been a great idea so far I wanted History so bad, but didnt want to have to study a foreign language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcunning15 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I went into college as a history major and came out with a recreation, parks, & tourism degree with a minor in management. I had a professor who really just ruined my love of history and at the time I was volunteering/working part time with a parks department I kinda just stumbled into that major. If I where starting today or all over I would have probably gone into either a hard science or just a business degree. If I actually talked to an adviser before hand I would have probably gone into Sports Education with a concentration in sports management. Oh well at least I have a degree.

WVUforREDSKINS Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I wish I was starting college all over again. I've screwed myself too much by not really trying. I thought that too my 1st semester junior year. Don't worry bro, I changed majors 3 times. I spent the first three semesters pretty much in a blackout. If I could start all over I think I would do economics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
