What am I Supposed to do with a WSGS Degree?
What Are You Going to Do with That? is a podcast that explores the dreaded question many students majoring in the humanities get: what will you do with that degree, or how will the humanities get you a job? Look no further because this exciting podcast debunks the myth surrounding humanities majors' career options and explores everyday folks’ decisions to study the humanities as undergraduates and their pathways to fulfilling careers. Each week features a new and diverse group of young professionals with a background in humanities reflecting on how their choice to receive a humanities degree was highly beneficial to their professional life. There is an episode for everyone that will trace various career paths that benefit from a background in the humanities. Click "visit" to listen to the podcast! VISIT -
