I’m not interested in a health profession. What kind of job can a Biological Sciences/Biochemistry & Molecular Biology/Bioinformatics & Computational Biology major make me qualified for?
That is a very difficult question to answer! The kind of job that you are qualified for at the end of your degree depends a lot on you. You have choices to make about your learning experiences, both in and out of the classroom. Do the research and get some experience to help you figure out what you do (and do not) want to do. Don’t think that majoring in the sciences only qualifies you to work in science, either. You’ll learn and enhance collaborative, critical thinking, and communication skills through your major and general education requirement courses. These kinds of skills can be applied in whatever career you choose after you’ve completed your degree at UMBC. If you’d like more specific information about the kinds of jobs that may interest you, UMBC’s Career Services Center is a wonderful resource for all of our students.
