When deciding on a major or looking for experiential learning opportunities, the first question you need to answer for yourself is, “What can I do with this major?” Careers where the knowledge, skills, and qualifications developed within your major are highly valued will offer the best and most fulfilling opportunities for internships and full-time positions. The W. P. Carey Career Management team has created an easy-to-understand resource that shows the areas, functions, and terminology within the fields you may be exploring.
Utilize the Law, Global Politics & Public Service Public Policy Map as a starting point for learning about the career paths common for your major, and then visit other resources like the Labor Market Insights to continue your research. By analyzing the map and digging, you may discover that you are prepared for positions and functions you had not previously considered, and you may want to explore more than one sector of the economy in different industries.
After doing this, you will be well on your way to performing solid market research in your areas of interest. Schedule an appointment with your Career Coach today to learn more about leveraging this resource and follow the links below to continue your research.
