<p>If you are getting a degree that many consider to be a non-marketable degree, tell us what the degree is and what job you plan on getting with the degree.</p>
<p>Arguably everything except engineering or the hard sciences are non-marketable in this economic climate.</p>
<p>I’m doing a Law and Economics double degree, plan on working in foreign affairs.</p>
<p>I studied political science and am happily working in commercial property insurance. I didn’t study political science to do political science, I studied political science because I enjoyed it and knew I’d be able to market the skills I gained from that education toward almost anything. And now I found something I like even more. :)</p>
<p>English Lit and Mass Communications-> Lawyer, maybe even a judge one day.</p>
<p>I am majoring in theater and don’t give a damn about what career path that may or may not lead to. I’m doing exactly what I want to be doing at this point in time and when I graduate, I’ll find some way to be doing what I want to be doing then as well.</p>
<p>International Studies and German. Not really interested in a real “job” as most people would consider it.</p>
<p>Residential College in the Arts and Humanities (yes, that really is the name of my major) and anthropology, concentration in bioethics. </p>
<p>I want to work in public health or be a professor. I’m really not all that worried about my degree being “marketable” or not since when I graduate (at 22), I will have had at least two internships and a 7 year work history along with at least two full time job offers that are waiting for me if I can’t find anything else. I’ve learned that connections and work experience will get you farther than a specific degree will, unless it’s a very specific degree (engineering, nursing, etc).</p>
<p>djamieson, the Australian economy’s a lot better at the moment than the US one, so I’d hesistate to make that claim in Australia (within Australia, I think a range of degrees are marketable). Try and sell your skills from your degree and your experiences, in any case - if you think about it, most Harvard and Yale graduates don’t have “marketable” majors, but many go on to great success.</p>
