    "Studies" is just code for unemployable.

      @Mik said in I wonder what the job market for this degree is.:

      Not necessarily. I know a few people who did graduate degrees in Soviet and East European Studies and Strategic Studies who did very well employment wise. All retired with great indexed government management pensions; one was even a full Colonel in the CAF and had various diplomatic assignments including NATO HQ and Washington.

      Depends what the “Studies” degree was about.

      Elbows up!

        I'm honestly surprised they haven't rebranded to "science."

        Women Science
        Cultural Science
        Black History Science

        Please love yourself.

          Mine very nearly ended in suicide, which would also have made me unemployable.

          A degree in mathematics is very useful in that it enables you to count how many times in your career you've actually used those skills. So far, I'm up to zero times.

          I was only joking

            Start with a medical or engineering or law degree than specialize in cannabis and I suspect it will be a whole different ballgame.

                You have completely mis-used that oft-quoted phrase. What are you, a business-studies major?
