Every company needs employees to hire
and train other employees. A degree in
human resources focuses on organization
behavior, social psychology, employment
and labor laws, and “Business 101.” Data integration is
changing the field of human resources, so other technical
skills are being added to the curriculum. Graduating with
a degree in HR can land you a job working as a human
resources manager, compensation/benefit analyst or
labor relations specialist, to name a few.

free lunch” resonates, a major in

heavily focused on a combination of
critical thinking and math and lays the groundwork for
graduate studies in law, public policy, or international
studies. Positions include actuary, lawyer, financial
analyst and international business consultant.

Buildings are constantly being
constructed everywhere you look. A
construction management professional
ensures that projects are completed on
time and on budget, and jobs can vary from commercial
to residential buildings. A major in this field requires
studying engineering and architecture, followed by
hands-on construction experience.
7. Psychology
A psychology major can expect to focus on
human behavior, learning, emotion, mental
disorders and personality. This degree can help
graduates land jobs as therapists, counselors, or
even teachers or lawyers, with continued education.
