Product Description

The only book that describes majors in-depth and lists colleges that offer them—four-year, two-year, undergraduate, and graduate programs

The Book of Majors 2010 is the most comprehensive guide to academic programs, with in-depth descriptions of 200 of the most popular college majors. This book answers the questions: What’s the major for you? Where can you study it? What can you do with it after graduation? This is also the only guide that shows what degree levels each college offers in a major, whether a certificate, associate, bachelor’s, master’s, or doctorate. More than 900 majors at 3,600 colleges are listed—including four-year, two-year, and technical schools sorted by state! The guide features

• insights—from the professors themselves—on how each major is taught, what preparation students will need, career options and employment prospects, and much more

• in-depth profiles of several emerging majors such as Homeland Security and Sustainable Agriculture

• inside scoop in the descriptions of majors such as questions students should ask when visiting campuses, and also professional societies and accrediting agencies to refer to for more background on the major

5 out of 5 stars Majors, Majors, and Just Majors   December 27, 2009
Alex (USA)
17 out of 17 found this review helpful

I really, really liked this book. It provided a detailed description of every major and even provided other majors you might like, prospective courses, and even what you should take in high school. In the back there's every major imaginable (seriously- if you want to study Reiki, it's in there) and every single institution that offers it. Community colleges, four-year, whatever. The best part is that it includes every level from Associates to Doctoral. This book doesn't try to rank colleges or even recommend them. Good job, College Board!

i found this book to be very helpful once i got past how big/thick it is. it was helpful in breaking down the actual majors, what they the are like and so forth. for a person not sure of what they want to go into...this gives them lots of insight. The listing of colleges that teach that major was very helpful. I will certainly share this with our youth.
