网上有个段子：选专业、选对象、选外卖，是人生中最必须认真做选取的三件事。
尤其是选专业，影响之深远，常常另没数职场打工人半夜梦回、捶胸顿足：假如当年换个专业，此刻的我会不会更快乐？
并不止咱们，老外其实亦常常为专业这个问题发愁。
In arecent surveyof job seekers by the job-search platform ZipRecruiter, 44% of respondents with college degrees said they regretted choosing their major — with English, communications, sociology, and marketing management falling under the most regretted majors.
在求职平台ZipRecruiter近期对求职者进行的一项调查中，44%的大学毕业生暗示她们懊悔选取了自己的专业，其中英语、传播学、社会学和市场营销管理被列为最懊悔的专业。
Within each field, the survey found, the highest-paid respondents were more likely to be happy about their college-major choice.
调查发掘，在每一个行业中，高收入者更可能对自己的大学专业选取感到满意。
While many college advisors will tell you that no major is truly useless — even ZipRecruiter found that of those who regretted their choice of major, 72% said they would choose it again — job experts caution against certain majors that limit your career options and salary potential.
尽管许多大学顾问会告诉你，无什么专业完全没用的——乃至ZipRecruiter亦发掘，在哪些懊悔自己专业选取的人中，72%的人暗示她们会再次选取这个专业——不外，就业专家警告不要选取某些专业，这些专业会限制你的职业选取和工资潜能。
01
扮演或戏剧艺术
Acting ortheater arts
谁能想到外媒竟然会把扮演专业放在第1位？！这要是搁国内，能考上中戏北电上戏的扮演专业，还愁以后赚不到钱吗？日薪不是高达206万吗？
不外，能大红大紫的毕竟是少许人，亦要思虑到哪些学了扮演但最后没法从事演艺工作的人。
Brianna Doe, a marketing manager at Inventables whos also a certified career coach and mentor for Arizona State University students and recent graduates, told Insider acting and theater degrees werent likely to providetransferable skills.
布丽安娜·多伊是Inventables的市场经理，亦是亚利桑那州立大学学生和应届毕业生的认证职业教练和导师，她告诉Insider杂志，扮演和戏剧学位不可能供给可转移技能。
She said the new graduates shed mentored who studied these fields had struggled to find roles outside theater, especially in the current economic climate, and an internship at a local theater isnt likely to boost your résumé for a corporate role.
她说，她指点过的戏剧专业应届毕业生都很难找到戏剧以外的工作，尤其是在日前的经济环境下，在当地剧院的实习不可能加强你的履历在公司中的竞争力。
02
电影
Film
和扮演专业同样，它的尴尬之处便是：科班毕业的学生不必定能吃演员这碗饭，倒是有非常多非科班出身的人在该行业“大放异彩“。这个专业与上面同样，都必须丰富的实践经验。
Film is similar to acting in that you dont need a degree to succeed in the field,Kelly Donovan, whos been a career coach since 2008 and is the principal of Kelly Donovan & Associates, a firm that works with job seekers nationwide, told Insider.
凯利·多诺万告诉Insider，电影与扮演类似，你不必须学位就能在这个行业取得成功，她从2008年起始担任职业教练，是为全国求职者供给服务的Kelly Donovan & Associates机构的负责人。
"Racking up massive student-loan debt for a film degree is risky," she said.Instead, she said to think about the degree after getting some in-the-field experience.
她说：“为了一个电影学位而背负海量的学生贷款债务是有危害的，”她暗示，相反，能够在得到有些实践经验之后再思虑这个学位。
03
人类学
Anthropology
人类学，能够说是最奥秘的专业之一了，可能非常多人都不晓得人类学到底是学什么的？详细来讲，人类学是科研人及其文化的学科。人类在区别环境中创造出区别的社会、政治、经济制度和宗教体系，而人类学者则经过比较科研，找出这些文化制度之间的异同，从而探求人类存在的本质。
If you want to get a job as an anthropologist, youll likely need to go to graduate school. Otherwise, Donovan said, your bachelors wont be useful.
倘若你想找到一份人类学家的工作，你可能必须去读科研生。否则，多诺万说，你的学士学位就无用了。
04
文明科研
Civilizationstudies
文明科研又是什么专业？感觉有点类似考古学，而考古学这个专业亦是够繁杂。在中国，考古学是历史学的分支，而在美国和加拿大则被视为人类学的分支之一，在欧洲被当作独立学科或历史学的一部分。
Unless youre going into the field of archaeology, Doe said theres not much you could do with a major in civilization studies when trying to land a job because its such a specific area of study — the degree focuses on how the world and civilization have evolved and is designed for those who want to work in archaeology.
多伊说，除非你要进入考古学行业，否则在找工作时，你的文明科研专业能做的不多，由于它是一个非常详细的科研行业——该学位侧重于世界和文明是怎样演变的，是为哪些想从事考古学工作的人设计的。
05
哲学
Philosophy
Philosophy is another niche degree that isnt much use outside the field if you dont pair it with a graduate degree. According to Doe, its not worth spending the money if you dont plan on working in that field. While some skills the degree teaches, such as critical thinking and analysis, are useful, it might be hard to market yourself outside academia.
哲学是另一个小众的学位，倘若你不读到科研生，在这个行业之外无什么用处。按照多伊的说法，倘若你不打算在该行业工作，就不值得花这笔钱。虽然哲学所教授的有些技能，如批判性思维和分析，是特别有用的，但在学术界以外可能很难找到工作。
06
心理学
Psychology
Many roles in the field of psychology require graduate degrees, so if thats not in your plan, Donovan said, its not the right move because the earning potential is much lower without a graduate degree.
多诺万说，心理学行业的许多工作都必须科研生学位，因此倘若这不在你的计划之内，就不举荐选择心理学，由于仅有本科学位的话，收入要低非常多。
"You could still use your knowledge of human behavior to build a strong career in a field like sales, but you could also just earn a business degree and take a few psychology classes as electives," she said.
她说：“你仍然能够利用你的人类行径知识在营销等行业大展宏图，但你亦能够只修个商学位学位，并选修有些心理学课程。”
07
传播学
Communications
Building a career with a communications degree alone can be challenging, Ronnie Green, a retired career counselor forJewish Community Services, told Insider. She said communications was one of the most common degrees among people who sought career counseling from her.
犹太社区服务的离休职业顾问罗尼·格林（Ronnie Green）告诉Insider记者，仅凭传播学学位不太拥有职业竞争力。她说，在向她寻求职业咨询的人中，传播学是最平常的学位之一。
08
英语
English
Majoring in English can be a smart move if you plan to be a teacher or a writer, but its hard to carve out a lifelong career from this major without going to graduate school, Green said.
格林说，倘若你打算作为一名教师或作家，主修英语可能是一个明智之举，但倘若不读到研究生，很难从这个专业中开辟出一个终身从事的职业。
An English degree can serve you well in careers related to writing and content creation, such as journalism, web-content writing, copywriting, technical writing, or grant writing. But students who arent sure what they want to do after graduation should go with a business major because that comes with more-transferable skills, Doe said.
英语专业能够在与写作和内容创作关联的职业中得到很好的应用，如资讯、网络内容写作、文案写作、技术写作或帮助写作。然则，不确定毕业后想做什么的学生应该选取商科专业，由于能够学到更加多的可转移技能，多伊说。
09
历史学
History
Like an English degree, history is useful only if you want to get a job related to history. You might also need a graduate degree for some of those roles, such as professor, librarian, or lawyer.
与英语学位同样，历史学仅有在你想从事与历史相关的工作时才有用。有些工作还必须读到科研生学历，如教授、图书管理员或律师。
10
室内设计
Interior design
Interior design is another specific degree thats useful pretty much only if you go into the field.
室内设计是另一个特定的学位，几乎仅有在你从事室内设计时才有用。
"Youre not going to get your return on investment," Doe said, adding that youre better off going with a graphic-design degree.
“你很难得到相应的报答，”多伊说，并弥补说最好选取平面设计学位。
10
市场营销
Marketing
There are plenty of career options in marketing, but Doe said the field was rapidly changing." You cant even really read a book about marketing and expect it to be completely irrelevant by the time youre done," she said.
市场营销有非常多职业选取，但多伊说这个行业正在快速变化。“你乃至不可真的读一本关于市场营销的书，并期望在读完时它完全不关联，”她说。
12
摄影
Photography
Photography can be a great career path, but Donovan said you didnt need a four-year degree to get work in the field.
摄影能够是一个伟大的职业道路，但多诺万说，你不必须一个四年制的学位就能在这个行业得到工作。
"You could take a few photography classes on an ad-hoc basis rather than going into debt pursuing a degree for four years," she said.
她说：“你能够临时上几节摄影课，而不必为了一个四年的学位而负债累累。”
