Oh no, another "best college majors" list? Best is definitely an ambiguous word, one that doesn't really mean much without context. What may be the best degree for someone else may not be the best for you. Some people value money, some value fun, but I think that we can agree that we all value actual employment opportunities. A degree is pointless without employment, so we found which college degrees are most likely to land you a job.
