What are jobs you can get with a political science degree?

What kind of jobs can I get if I have a degree in political science and minor in Criminology or Sociology?

  • See I am a senior graduating in December 2010 and unsure of what I want to do after graduation. In the beginning I was considering law school. As time winds down I am thinking that is not for me anymore. So today I heard I could do a minor in another arts and science concentration and that way I could have two degree. What should I do? What kind of job can I should be applying for if I were to get a minor in either sociology or criminology. Whats a student to do? PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Answer:

    I personally would not recommend you get another degree. You don't sound like you need one anyway. Speak with someone who is skilled at helping people with liberal arts degree's find ways to apply their knowledge. Honestly, I think what you have is good. Why did it take you so long to research what you could do with it? Go to a career center quickly! You still have a summer and a semester to get things together. I would suggest you figure out what interests you. Read books and keep a list of positions that sounds interesting. The best thing to do now is try to launch your career while in COLLEGE. This means internships to get a feel for work, understand how to fix problems perhaps by researching under a professor, developing strong communication skills and network. One trick is to figure out what you like, where you might want to work, and get find out who is in charge of hiring. Figure out what industries you like and Read trade manuals to understand where those industries are going and come up with your own idea's on how things work. You need to visit your local career center and do practice interviews. Figure out how to build a resume Take a variety of aptitude tests. Those help.
