Career Paths for Humanities Graduates
Like other undergraduate degrees, Humanities is not a training program for one particular career. Instead, Humanities students become intellectually mature and confident, and are able to speak and write clearly and effectively. They are very good at learning new and complex tasks. They easily master the skills taught in a subsequent professional degree, postgraduate degree, or on-the-job. Consequently, they typically move quickly into positions of responsibility in their organisations.
