If you want to get a job, get one of these degrees:
1. Computer Science, Data Science
2. Information Systems / IT / Information Science
3. Engineering
4. Medical
5. Business Administration (top universities only)
6. Law (top universities only)
Other majors will suffer greatly unless they're lucky.
It could be that other majors were created to torture your life and steal your money.
95% of people should go to college to get these "employable" degrees.
95% of people shouldn't go to college to get other degrees that make them unemployable.
...
But, even if you get one of the less "useful" degrees, you still have a better job outlook than someone without a bachelor's degree. The average college-educated bachelor's degree holder earns 1.75x more than the average non-college-educated person over a lifetime.
