“What Jobs Can I Get With My Degree?”

Nov 27, 2023 | Blog

At Grace Christian University, we know how hard it can be to decide on a degree path, especially when it’s your first year and everything already seems so overwhelming. So many colleges keep it vague when it comes to telling students what they can do with a degree, making the decision all the more difficult. It can feel like your whole future’s on the line and that one wrong choice could lock you into the wrong career path. But that’s not the case. We’ve compiled a list so you can clearly see what jobs you can get with your degree. Take a look!

Degree Programs at Grace Christian University

Before you can decide on what job you want, you need to understand the different degrees you might need to meet those job requirements.

  1. On-campus Undergraduate – Our on-campus undergraduate program offers our most traditional college experience while pursuing your Bachelor’s degree. You’ll attend classes in person, connecting with your professors and peers as you experience college life.
  2. Online Undergraduate – Our online undergraduate program offers the same educational experience but from the comfort of your own home. This is the perfect option for those who live a distance from Grace but want the degree offered at Grace, or can’t meet in person during regular hours. Online programs are generally also more affordable than on campus.
  3. Online Master’s Degree – With our master’s degree program, you can earn your graduate degree from anywhere. While most jobs only require a four-year degree, it’s important to note that some jobs may require further specialization in your chosen field.
