<p>as warblers points out, you don’t need to be a journalism major to become a journalist. Experience and internships are going to be the key, not your major.</p>
<p>And for that matter if you have an aptitude for science or languages it would be better to major on one of those fields AND pursue journalism via the school paper and internships. Lots of humanities majors are scared of numbers and science, a reporter who can cover the science beat or businesses that have a tech product are much rarer than journalism majors. Same with foreign languages; how many reporters in this increasingly international world can speak anything but english?</p>
