I think an IT course would be good, alot of employers look for computer literacy. History would also be good as that shows you enjoy learning. I also think English would be good, shows you have good communication skills.

A good liberal arts education provides a sound general basis for a lot of careers. I would suggest though, that you supplement this type of education with courses that are specific to a particular career ie: if you think you may want to be in business, take business electives -- if you think you may want to teach take teaching electives, etc. In other words, get the most out of your education dollar.
Note: Your college may also offer Certificate programs that can be taken in a specific subject area in conjunction with your degree. Taking one or more of these certificates shows an employer that you have a specific concentration in a marketable area in conjunction with your major area (which may be "interesting" to you -- but offer less employment options).

Business Studies, depending on the University, the course should give you information about lots of different areas of Business, and you will have the opportunity to specialise later on in the course. And if you're lucky you will have the chance to do a sandwich placement which gives you some valuable work experience that will set you ahead of other graduates with a purely theoretical degree.

Probably just a type of liberal arts major -- or something in the area of Journalism, or writing, or English.
Then also Business or Marketing are general enough and would apply to many areas in the work field.

Business Degree. Gives lots of generalised input on loads of different areas including IT, HRM, employment law, contract law, accounts, team working, etc, etc. Really good basis for going on to specialise in one of the areas covered.

An arts degree is sort of a 'Gateway' degree because you can always explore other avenues with it. I suggest you work on your grammar first. Internet and sms 'talk' like u (you) and 4 (four, for) etc is ruining the English language!.

once you get the choice to decide on your important, a demonstrate screen with each and every of the classes will pop up (you ought to use the laptop or telephone at uni to decide for). once you click on each and every undertaking, it is going to instruct you the careers that it is stable for.
