Program Analysis
A general Social Sciences degree from Charleston Southern offers a broad academic foundation, but without specific vocational training, you'll likely find yourself competing for entry-level roles that don't always require a specialized degree. This can lead to significantly lower earnings, as the Charleston job market, while growing, often prioritizes candidates with highly specific skills in fields like tech, healthcare, or advanced business, or those with direct experience from robust internship programs. The high AI risk for general social science roles further complicates the landscape, suggesting that many common tasks are susceptible to automation, increasing competition for available positions. Your initial career path might involve administrative support, non-profit roles, or further education. To improve your outlook, you'll need to proactively build a marketable skillset, perhaps through a strong minor, practical internships, or by planning for graduate school early to specialize your knowledge.
