How do you feel about Liberal Arts degrees?
I am a junior in high school and apparently I have to start thinking about the future and what not. My question is what types of jobs can you get with a liberal arts degree? I’ve heard it’s the type of degree for people who don’t know what they want to be… Is this true? Is it frowned upon? The thing is, I don’t know at all what to major in. Any tips on how to determine what I should do with my life?
Any comments and opinions are greatly appreciated! Thanks to everyone in advance!
The liberal arts include everything from art to English to math to physics. You can get any job with them depending on your specific major except for those jobs which require specific training – like nursing and engineering. However, a ‘liberal arts major’ as in not picking a major and just taking random classes is pretty useless; anyone who picked a major is more qualified than you.
I’m actually getting a Liberal Arts degree so I can be a history teacher. What you do with your life is your choice though major in something you know you will enjoy.
