What can you do with a double major in Biology/Political Science

<p>Hey so I was planning on double majoring in Bio/PS for two reasons:

  1. I have always been good at bio and I really enjoy it. And PS has always been very interesting to me
  2. I can look different to Med schools when I apply. However, this is second on my list because I really enjoy both fields</p>

<p>So, if med school is not an option, what are some careers that entails a degree from both fields?</p>

<p>Thank You!</p>

<p>You’re better off majoring in Economics, Engineering, Math, or Computer science. There are no careers for Bio/PS that are secure. </p>

<p>Based on your interests, I would major in Economics and/or Biomedical engineering. Or major in Biomedical engineering with a minor in poly sci.</p>

<p>You could be a lawyer. You could go into environmental law or other science law type things.</p>

4

<p>If you’ve got graduate or professional school in mind…
Law, Political Science or Public Policy (science policy, environmental policy, health policy), Public Health (health administration, health policy), Bioethics, Environmental/Science Journalism</p>

<p>Both of those degrees entail strong candicacy for med and law school (provided you have a high gpa and lsat or mcat scores) you could overlap the two fields and do something in law related to biology or medicine. However fresh out of undergrad there arent really any jobs for both aside from teaching at a middle school or high school and teaching the two subjects (keep in mind if you were going to do this you would need to do a teacher route but it doesnt seem that you want to be a teacher- just throwing ideas around) My advice is shoot for both and try for grad school (law, med or go for a Ph.D in bio or something) If grad school is not something you want to do realize that there are careers for you but not ones that intertwine or require the two majors.</p>
