This is when students “question” their college choice.  It is normal for some students to question their decision but encourage your child to give it a full year.  Many students have a hard time readjusting to college life after the long holiday break.  This is normal but if it become a concern, college health services have wonderful guidance facilities on hand.

College students, take note: There are at least six fields of study whose graduates are virtually 100 percent employed right now. That’s right–certain majors, such as pharmacology, produce graduates who face a zero percent unemployment rate.

That’s not bad considering last month’s joblessness rate for people with a college degree or higher was 4.4 percent.

Check out the rest of the most employable majors, below.

Majors and their unemployment rate:

1. Actuarial Science—0 percent

2. Astronomy and Astrophysics—0 percent

3. Educational Administration and Supervision—0 percent

4. Geological and Geophysical Engineering—0 percent

5. Pharmacology—0 percent

6. School Student Counseling—0 percent

7. Agricultural Economics—1.3 percent

8. Medical Technologies Technicians—1.4 percent

9.Atmospheric Sciences and Meteorology—1.6 percent

10. Environmental Engineering, Nursing, and Nuclear Industrial Radiology and Biological Technologies—2.2 percent
