Prepare for a Meaningful Career 

A GWS major or minor prepares you for careers that value critical thinking, communication, cultural awareness, and the ability to understand complex social systems. Graduates with a GWS major or minor often pursue opportunities in journalism, law, social services, education, public policy, business, politics, nonprofit organizations, and many other fields.

Whether you want to understand how society works, pursue a career serving others, advocate for social change, or bring a deeper understanding of people and institutions to another profession, GWS equips you with the knowledge, skills, and experience to make a difference.
