Prior to beginning work on this discussion forum, review Chapter 1 in Power and Society: An Introduction to the Social Sciences and the Why Social Science? (Links to an external site.) website, both of which you read in Week 1, and any other resources from the last five weeks that you found particularly interesting.
Throughout this course, you have examined five different social science fields (anthropology, sociology, political science, psychology, and economics) and considered the ways that these fields come together to give a more complete understanding of societies. In this discussion, you will think about how the skills and information you have learned in this class might apply to your major, your chosen career, and your personal life.
After reviewing the material throughout the course, identify your major and your long-term goals, and answer the following questions:
Where would you like to be one to five years from now?
What is the industry and role you would like to pursue for your career?
How can your knowledge of the social sciences contribute to your major?
How can your knowledge of the social sciences contribute to your current or future career?
How can you use your knowledge of the social sciences to enhance your personal life?
