Weekly Journal 10 Majoring in Political Science and College Debt political science homework help
Dear all,
For this journal I would like you to do some some basic internet research about political science degrees. Next I want you to learn about student loan debt and explore recent data from the New York Federal Reserve bank about incomes for recent graduates. This journal requires you to listen to a 53-minute podcast, so give yourself some time to prepare.
- According to the American Political Science Association (APSA) (Links to an external site.), what are some of the careers that people with Political Science degrees go into? What are some example career paths? What are some of the qualities that make Political Science a good degree?
- According to the New York Fed (Links to an external site.) and the Georgetown “What’s it Worth” (Links to an external site.) report, what are some of the benefits of a college degree? What are some of the significant differences in benefits depending upon one’s degree? What are the specific outcomes of Political Science majors when they enter the labor market?
- According to the Reveal investigation on student loans (Links to an external site.), who is making money off of student loans? How have tuition costs changed over time, and why? How do student loans impact people?
In your write up, please share what you’ve learned and your personal reflections on your college goals.
