What major do you select if you want to become a Human Resources manager?
Q. I want to be a HR manager when I'm older, but I don't know if I should actually select "Business Administration" as my major for my applications. Isn't the business major a competitive major, thus making it harder for some people to get into the schools if they select the major on their applications? And also, is there a huge difference between just "Business" major and a "Business Administration" major? Please help.

A. Look at the modules of the course, and see if it offers HR. Some courses have a concentration in the subject. Business Administration, Management, & International Business are related degree's.

Should I major in computer engineering if the program is not accredited? How important is accreditation?
Q. The university that I currently attend offers Electrical and Computer Engineering and the programs are very similar except for a few different courses. I am in my sophomore year and I changed my major from computer science to EE. I was thinking I would Major in EE and minor in CS, but my advisor feels I should just major in Comp Engineering since I already have a little knowledge. However, the CE program is relatively new so it's not accredited as of yet. I really changed my major because I didn't want to limit myself to computers. But my advisor says the same jobs an EE can get a CE can get. How true is this? And what should I do major in Electrical Eng and Minor in Computer Science or should I just major in Comp. Eng.

A. If you want to go to some really high rated grad school it is important. As long as your school has ABET accredited engineering programs, the individual department accreditation is not that important. The most important thing is passing the PE when your done. But major in EE because its in demand. With EE you can still be a computer engineer anyway.

A. Chemistry, for sure. But I would also consider process engineering, or chemical process engineering, since all the brewing is done in large fermantation tanks, which have to be correctly built, set up, maintained, controlled (and the controls have to be put in at the correct places...), disinfected and planned and upgraded. That is a huge process that needs careful consideration, the right techniques and maths to do, and a high amount of economy too, if you want to be successful. You might also look into spending a semester uproad in Germany, at either the University of applied sciences in Wiesbaden at their Geisenheim campus, where you can study brewing, or the TU Muenchen (Technische Hochschule Muenchen) at their Weihenstephan Campus,… [cont.]

A. An interesting quirk of BYU is that you can't major in religion or get graduate degrees in it. If you're interested in being a seminary teacher, I think you can go in and talk to the Religion Dept., but I'm not sure. If you want to become a religion professor at BYU, you'll have to figure out what you want to teach and start aiming toward that. If you want to teach Family & Relationships you'll have to get a Ph.D. in psychology or social science or something up that alley. Church History? Probably just normal history and a Ph. D. focusing on a relevant subject. If you're into Old Testament or New Testament, then Near Eastern might help. Once you have your Ph.

A. Yes. BTW most federal agencies, or other agencies that require a degree do not care what your major was. Both of these, as well as numerous other degrees, will benefit you in a law enforcement career. I would suggest SOME criminal justice classes and maybe a minor in criminal justice, especially courses like Constitutional Law.

Asked by yohahn k - Sat Feb 27 00:44:19 2010 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. You can major in whatever you want as long as you have the proper pre-reqs for PT school. When you look at colleges they will have "pre-professional" programs, but they aren't majors. When you are assigned an adviser (same as what a counselor does in high school) you will tell them you want to go to PT school and they will be sure you have the proper classes along with whatever major you choose. For example, if you're interested in music you can major in that you just do your prerequisite classes too. I think the most popular major for pre-PT students is kinesiology, most just pick the most popular major (I think choosing a fun major makes you stand out though). Biology is another fairly popular one.

A. Ehh, some ok answers but nothing great so I guess I have to throw in my 2 cents in an attempt to "clear things up." First, you can major in anything for law and med schools. Neither "require" any particular major. For law school, pick whatever interests you the most and you can get the best grades in. Doesn't matter if it's science. There are all kinds of lawyers out there. Getting a BS qualifies you to get a job as an intellectual property lawyer. IP law is one of the "hot" law fields right now, but IP firms normally won't hire you unless you have, at a minimum, a BS in something math or science related. The patent bar requires a BS as well I believe. For med, there are a list of required courses you need to take before you can… [cont.]

A. What kind of web developer do you want to be? Do you want to focus on design & layout, or do you want to program and work on the logic that runs the site? I would suggest you take classes in both areas, but choose a major that fits the side you're interested in. Computer science will give you a good background on programming and software development, which will be good for building web applications (think the sophisticated web apps that Google provides). It *won't* prepare you for making nice-looking, customer-friendly web sites -- you'll want to take digital media classes for that.

Q. I'm going to major in Economics. This is certain. What I'm wondering about is if I would be more valuable to an employer (or any other helpful insights experienced persons may have in this area). Should I double major in history as well or major in economics and have two minors in history and political science? The amount of time and credits are almost exactly the same in the two situations.
Asked by messenja - Tue Dec 5 20:42:34 2006 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. No point in doubling in history or poly sci unless you just want to study those things. Those extra majors or minors won't add any value to your resume that economics doesn't already provide. If you have the opportunity, consider adding another major that in itself would make you more marketable and might qualify you for some job somewhere along the way -- maybe finance, accounting, statistics -- or if you're really got the time and talent computer science, EE, or chemical engineering. Now THAT would be double major. That may not make sense to you now, but could really pay off someday when you're 30 or 35 and interested in job mobility or switching careers.

A. It sounds like you are thinking of a Social Work career. Many schools offer Bachelor of Social Work (BASW) programs. Once you have completed one of these undergrad Social Work major programs you will most likely need to continue on through a Master of Social Work (MSW) program. It is very hard to be a legitimate practicing marriage, family, etc type counselor without completing a Masters program. Both the undergrad and graduate work is very intensive and includes many hours of training in the field. This profession is growing at a staggering rate and is expected to keep growing. If you are willing to put in the effort to complete all of the necessary schooling you will have a very secure and rewarding career. good luck!

A. biochem is great for a patent lawyer because some of the biggest business is in pharmaceuticals right now, you'd be in high demand as a lawyer with a background in biochem. Incidentally, after your first year of law school, you can take what is called the "patent bar" so that you get it out of the way before taking a state bar exam.
