<p>The safest things to study are vocational in nature, especially something like engineering where there is a coop program.</p>
<p>Chemistry and biology are good if you want to go to a vocational training program likely for a health profession.</p>
<p>You have to go to a top school and perform very well there in all respects for the job market to be truly good. The median chemistry PhD is going to be searching for a job for 6 months to 2 years after graduation. The job search will likely yield a job teaching nursing students at a community college. Why? This is one of the biggest employers of chemistry PhDs.</p>
