I dont know what i want to do with my sociology degree...in other words, i dont know what i CAN do with my sociology degree. I know i dont want to be a social worker or counsler, but other than that my options are open. Anyone know what i can do with a sociology degree?

Answer:
I am doing the same thing as you are and caught in the same loop. Since sociology is such a broad field, your career opportunities are at a great amount. Especially with a minor in journalism, you can really get far with those too. I know you can land jobs in education, government, law, business....and the list goes on and on. so no worries, you will find something...i need the same help also.

Can you be more specific about what interests you about each discipline? In the mean time, consider these questions: Which journalists do you admire, and why? What ideas in sociology are most interesting or powerful to you? How can you go about gaining experience (paid or volunteer) in one of these areas while you are still in college? Finally, your career counseling center may offer an alumni network directory where alumni have volunteered to talk with current students about their current work.

wait tables, make a lot of money. Seriously, I don't think there are a lot of careers that require a sociology degree. However, Jobs that don't require a degree will often hire college graduates just because that degree proves you have stick-to-it-iveness. But, if you're not too far along with your program, you might want to change majors to something else. Take a few electives, and find your passion. Photography, drama, communications, art, etc. In the end, how much you make will mean less than how much you enjoy your chosen profession.
