Cognitive Science?

Is anyone a Cog sci major? I'm just wondering since I want to know what jobs are available if I do major in this.

My mom is an english prof who focuses on cog sci a lot. She has even written a pretty famous (in the academia) book about it called "Why We Read Fiction". I'll ask her for you

She said that any job from Law to Sales to anything else is open for cognitive Science majors. SHe also said that Cog Sci is "the next big thing"

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful

Yeah, cog sci is very interdisciplinary, from what I've found. As such, a wide array of jobs would probably be open. Then again, maybe not, since there might not be any real specialization... but probably some good jobs.
