If you pick a degree like international relations you need to have a specialized plan before going into it, Like for example you want to work in China or for a company that has business in China. All International relation students must take a foreign language. So you should become fluent in that language and specialize on that region for that is your job goal. If you have no plan when you graduate and haven't worked towards that plan you will not find a job. That is what happens to most IR students when they get out. Study abroad in the country of the language you are learning and take internships in a business that requires that language, also Joining the military and becoming an officer with an IR degree and favorable language like Russian, Chinese, Arabic will be great experience that will make it easier after you get out to get a great job since you aren't coming straight out of college with no experience.

Yeah, have fun being unemployed.

Ain't that the truth... Well if you go for a master's degree and pursue a career through academia then your chances go up substantially but I assume not everyone wants to do that

It’s a paid advert don’t expect truth from it

[@rushil505]

yeah lol, but I am curious to get into IR and what they teach, and then thinking to get an MBA on top of a bachelors in IR

[@kappa5809]

@@rushil505 Here is better idea. Get a Law degree and specialize in International Law. After that get some work experience and then go for the MBA. This will lead to better career prospects.

[@rushil505]

@@kappa5809 yeah but going for a law degree is a whole different then IR, I understand your point but then the grade requirement, admission rates, schools, pretty much everything will be different unless I am mistaken.

@@pragyasubedi1131 I hope you didn't listen to any of these people because it seems like they have no idea what they're talking about. If someone says a certain degree is for "future fries servers" or anything of the like, you can go ahead and ignore them. If I were you, I would go ahead and do your own research on the program. These people think a degree in a certain field = you must be employed in that field. That is absolutely not true. I guarantee you the department hosting your program can help you find internships, can help you network, etc.

@@pragyasubedi1131 I just realized my other comment is kind of all over the place, but seriously, just do your own research on the program. I know it's kind of ironic, but don't listen to random people on KZbin, especially the ones trying to tell you not to do the program. They evidently know nothing about internships, networking, or literally whatever they're talking about.
