help choosing a college major/future career?
Hello. I would like some suggestions on possible majors and even future career paths involving those majors. I am having trouble pinning down one specific subject matter. I enjoy a very broad spectrum of subjects. I will be as specific as possible. I enjoy British literature, language, variations from around the world in music (mainly the instruments and use of vocals to create melody, rather than using actual words), history (especially ancient history), science (specifically zoology (or less specifically, biology) and some chemistry), food (in it’s relation to health and culture), botany (specifically medicinal herbology), astrology, astronomy, and theology (religion and it’s influence on various cultures). I do enjoy politics, but that is far more leisurely. I am fairly accomplished in drawing with charcoal (mainly portraits and landscape). I believe that I have listed everything…

Leona,
MIght I suggest that you consider selecting a career path first? Once you’ve narrowed down (or combined related careers) you’ll find it a bit easier to select a program of study to take you where you want to go.
An excellent source of information of the sort listed below in regard to just about any career that you can think of is available at the Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook, 2010 – 2011 link.

This sounds like you would love Anthropology. It’s the study of past cultures and civilizations, and it ranges alot. People often go on to work in museums, libraries, and studying other cultures. If not that, then look into Humanities, like history and Lit, many schools have great combo Humanities programs.

just in case you didnt know, you can always major in what youre most interested in, and minor in something else, even if its not related. and then after your bachelors degree, you can just get a masters in the same subject, or in something totally different. good luck!
