[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Don't spend big dollars on a sociology degree even from Yale or NYU[/quote] Well, according to this chart, sociology majors make a median of 45K, which is better than counseling psychology (29K), about the same as English (48K), and worse, but not an order of magnitude worse from even some STEM majors (biochemistry 53K, biological engineering 50K, chemistry 57K). From this chart, it looks to me like all this angst about what to major in matters little. In less you are in a hot engineering field, likely getting a degree at all means that your earnings will cluster around 40-55K without grad school. You know who was a successful ivy league sociology major? Michelle Obama.[/quote] So....good major if you are a beneficiary of affirmative action at every step in your life. Otherwise, not so great.[/quote]
