Career Guide

Majors to Careers

When deciding on a major as it relates to a possible career, it often helps to see what HMC graduates have done. OCS has created career monographs, also known as “What Can I Do with a Major,” to show you which employers have hired graduates and from what major; what their job titles have been; what the average salary has been; where they have found internships and the average internship wages, and where they have been accepted to graduate school.

Studying Abroad
