Will it blend ? <| sep |> It also explains why a vast majority of scientific research is not applicable to real life . <| sep |> As far as money making goes , you gotta hand it to the guy . Ethics ? Not so much <| sep |> Engineering , computer science , nursing , and accounting are all high demand careers that can be done with a relatively cheap degree from a state school . Yet people choose to major in communications and history . Why , if you want money , would you major in history ? Discuss . I dunno about you but I went to a a college that is not known for its engineering , business , or nursing schools . People I met in accounting , engineering , and nursing outnumbered those in communications or history easily 3 to 1 . Even the National Center for Education Statistics backs this up Of the 1 , 840 , 000 bachelor ' s degrees conferred in 201213 , the greatest numbers of degrees were conferred in the fields of business 361 , 000 , health professions and related programs 181 , 000 , social sciences and history 178 , 000 , psychology 114 , 000 , education 105 , 000 , and biological and biomedical sciences 100 , 000 . Sadly Social Sciences and History is an incredibly broad subject in my school Social Sciences ranged from Art History to Economics , but they are still beaten out by business and medical students . Engineering and Computer Science are underrepresented in this case , though , so I can ' t logically contest your point there .
