[quote=Anonymous]I think of history, political science and IR as pretty closely related. Anthro I think of as more human science related. At UVA in the 90s I was a “foreign affairs” major, I had a choice between that and “government” on my degree, and it was only 1 class difference. I qualified for both. Common degree paths for that were working in fed or state government, law school, or trying for the foreign service. I tried those careers for a while, hated them, and then went on to get my MBA and have had a great 25 year career in Fortune 500 companies, so I definitely see the whole C suite thing, but it is more due to graduate degrees now. Being an IR major taught me how to read and write well and about how different countries are set up and have evolved. It was great training for my career, and I would hire a strong person from one of these majors for an entry level business job. [/quote]
