What jobs can I get with a International Relations Degree?
I assume that you’re talking about a bachelor’s degree, in which case you might think about a graduate degree in political science, public policy, public administration or law. Many law schools have specialties in international law. As for other career paths, you could do the Peace Corps or join an NGO or IGO like the UN. You could also get a business degree, learn a language, and make yourself useful to businesses who want to expand internationally. Finally, teaching English is always a good option. There are lots of programs in Japan and South Korea that pay English teachers. And even if you’re not sure about being a diplomat, you may as well take the Foreign Service Exam anyway and see how you do . . .
