Week 3: Option 1

A college major that I would most likely want to have is cultural anthropology. Three jobs that are common to people who have had that major are cultural anthropology professors, corporate anthropologists, and senior resources specialist.
The average pay for a cultural anthropologist professor ranges from $41,000-$129,000. A cultural anthropologist professor in California makes an average of $55,000/year while a cultural anthropologist professor in Texas makes an average of $49,000/year. About 79% of cultural anthropologist professors have doctorate degrees while about 21% have master degrees. It is recommended that cultural anthropologist professors are ready for a challenge as well as high achievers.
Corporate anthropologists make an average of about $54,230/year. The states with the highest average salaries are mainly located in the east and northeast regions with District of Columbia having the average salary of $93,620. Most jobs require either a masters or PhD where you included research and studying abroad in your college experience. Skills needed include being able to take surveys and examine social problems.
Senior resource specialists make an average of $72,492/year. In California, the average salary is about $78,000/year while in Texas it is about $70,000/year. Most jobs require at least a bachelor's degree. Skills needed include respect, collaboration, and innovation.
