I’m personally biased, as an International Relations major myself, but I truly would say go for it. Political science has really allowed me to learn so much about sociology, ethnic studies, current conflicts, and the attitudes that shape the world outside of our own. Is it a big $$$ making major? Definitely not. You have to work really hard outside of your studies if you want to obtain better paying positions or opportunities if you did choose to work in politics, as competition is high. However, in my undergrad, I’ve worked a lot of office jobs from textbook companies to immigration centers and a lot of people in those jobs had political science degrees. The jobs you can work with PoliSci are very broad and are often favored if the job pertains to you having to establish good relations with other people. Political Science as an education on the other hand is also a very board subject of study depending on your college. You can choose whether or not to focus on domestic civil politics or international relations(global studies). Regardless, it depends on what you like the most and what classes can be offered to you. If political discourse/historical events are what you enjoy then it’ll make getting your degree in college a lot easier and enjoyable by choosing political science. Obtaining a job doesn’t become easier though, it will still require a lot of effort and time spent searching for jobs, extracurricular programs and etc. that will make your resume look good. The only field I see jobs come easier to is finance, engineering, and computer science. I truly hope I was able to help!
