What jobs could one get with an English major?

Question

I'm currently a sophomore psych. major, but I'm thinking about switching..But I was wanting to know what jobs I could get w/ this major..And do you think its too late to switch?

Answer 1

author, editor, publisher, teacher (if you get a minor in education)...

basically anything book-related.

and it's never too late to switch. that's what college is for, changing your mind and finding out what you want to do.

Unless of course you've had to declare your major already.

Answer 2

The last I heard, the average college student changed majors 2-3 times over their college career and the average college student took 6-7 years to complete the four year program. Give yourself a chance and do what you want to do.
As far as English majors, my brother was one, and he works in construction. Really! Of course that is because he is the only one who can write up an estimate, a report, or a proposal. No one else he works with can do that.
Anyone who can write is going to be a value in just about any job. Sure there are the obvious ones: teacher, writer, public relations, journalism, etc. But every bank, corporation and factory needs someone who can read, understand, and then put it all into writing.

its not too late to switch, just make an appointment with the adviser of the english department and talk to them about switching and where you stand.
