TOP 10 COURSE OPTIONS IN USA

The courses that are offered by universities in United States and that are popular among International Students.

If you're currently pondering on subject to chose as your major or even if you're just curious about what tomorrow's global job applicants are majoring in today, here's a top 10 list of course options in USA for you.

Business Administration and Management

This major offers training in accounting, finance, marketing, economics, human resources, and decision-making. You'll learn to budget, organize, plan, hire, direct, control, and manage an organization. You'll find more chances for career growth if you go on to earn your MBA.

Psychology

Psychology is the study of the way humans and animals interact and respond to their environment. In essence, it's the study of behaviour and the thoughts behind it. Just don't expect that four years of college will get you a private practice where people lie on a couch and tell you their troubles for $95/hour. You'll need an extra five to seven years of schooling and a PhD before that will happen.

Elementary education

From tracing a little hand on coloured paper to help in making cookies and to taking a field trip to the local science center with your fourth-graders to learn about static electricity, you are excited about working in a grade school and shaping young minds before they develop the attitude. Some college programmes offer an area of specialization, such as early childhood, language arts, or mathematics.

Biology

Biology majors focus on the living world--that's everything from single-cell bacteria to whales. You may take classes in which you learn about calculus, microbiology, cell biology, genetics, evolution, physics, and organic chemistry. In addition to being a stepping-stone for medical school, biology major can lead to a job in the field such as genetics, biotechnology, or medical research. Veterinarians, optometrists, ecologists, biochemists, and environmentalists all may have majored in biology.

Nursing

Generally, nurses help people meet basic health needs, adapt to physical changes, recover from illness, and die with dignity. They are employed in clinics, hospitals, schools, corporations, the military, and in private practice. We need nurses now more that ever and job prospects in this field are bright. If you major in nursing, you'll take traditional science and liberal arts courses as a first-year student and probably begin clinical rotations at hospitals and other health care facilities during the second semester of your sophomore year.

Education

Although much of your coursework will be general education material, most laces require you to choose a specific grade level you'd like to teach. Choices usually include some variation of early childhood education (Preschool), primary education (kinder-garden through twelfth grade). Some education majors choose to specialize in special education. Your student teaching experience, in which you spend a semester or more in gaining practical experience in a classroom, will be in the field of your choice.

English

You'll find English majors in countless types of jobs. Many of them are communications-based careers as you'd expect-author, reporter, journalist, editor, radio broadcaster, advertising and public relations executives--but plenty of them aren't that obvious. English majors also become teachers, lawyers (after law school, of course), film directors, politicians, actors, you name it. English majors become well-rounded, well-read individuals who have studies life in words across the globe.

Communications

In this programme, students learn how certain messages influence individual and group behaviour. You'll spend a significant amount of time studying different kinds of speaking and writing and strategies people use to make their points. You'll take a look at verbal and nonverbal messages, audience reaction, and the varied effects of different communication environments. Communication theory will play a part too, as you delve into speeches, revolutionary political campaigns, radical social movements, and the trends in news reporting. With your degree, you may choose to pursue a career in business, public relations, advertising, human resources, government, education, media, or social services.

Computer Science

Your friends are always coming to you for help when they experience computer problems, and you know it's high time you got paid for your efforts. Solution: obtain a degree in Computer Science. In this programme, you'll focus on how computer technology can be applied to any number of fields.

Included will be classes on how to develop business applications, perform system analysis, and the process of developing software (from designing to programming to testing). Programmes may also include instruction in robotics, natural language recognition programmes, artificial intelligence, programming languages and numerical analysis. The knowledge you gain from a Computer Science major is absolutely applicable to the real world, and to real jobs within it.
