![]() Employment outcomes for this major are garbage. ![]() Businesses want business/data analyst/econ/math/science majors. I was shooed-away at the career center with a "we cannot help someone with your major." The truth is businesses want someone who is natively bilingual, and they can easily fetch someone who is Chinese and grew up here with the right skill set. I have to say this was probably the worst possible decision I made, but it was due to the fact that professors who had zero clue about jobs or the economy convinced me that this degree would be "valuable" and that "companies really need people who speak Chinese." I had more than one person tell me this, and since I did well in my classes that were Chinese I thought "why not?" I graduated with honors, participated in an extra language program, and well - there are NO jobs for people who major in this field. "I attended CSULB for several years and received a degree in Chinese studies.
