What is the most worthless degree?

DON'T FORGET TAG

Degree

The winner has to be Art History. Seriously, what does one do with art history? Maybe, they will be good at saying, "Do you want fries with that."

Maybe an art gallery curator, but how many of those does the world actually need?

"Do you want fries with that."

It is the degree of selfishness and immortality. All other degrees have a use except for these.

I suppose dance is quite bad, as is philosophy and theology. In the Library of my University their was a piece of graffiti on the toilet roll dispenser that said "Media Degrees, please take one" so I'm guessing that Media related degrees are up there.

Methinks you are unaware of what philosophy encompasses. Personally, it is by far my favorite subject.

Especially considering this is a debate site; it is strange that you would mention a degree in philosophy as being quite bad. There are many things within debate that utilize aspects of philosophy ethics and political philosophy to name a few, but more importantly logic. Logic is where we get the very art of debating itself with learning the ability to reason and how to be a critical thinker.

I humbly suggest you reconsider friend.

I'm quite aware of the importance of philosophy, and for the few skilled at it I bow my head.

The problem with taking Philosophy is that when you are finished, your options in the employment world are quite limited, and that is essentially what this debate is about.

Again I've no problem with it as a subject.

Sociology, I have a few friends who have obtained the degree and it has been worthless.

Although I just went onto to Google to search 'weird degrees' and sociology isn't even comparable.

I'm not sure a degree in a religious study would be much help in obtaining a well paid job either.

Bachelor of arts ;)

All degrees these days are worthless when there are more graduates then jobs.

This all depends on the field of study that you're in, In Ireland there is a big need for Biomedical Engineers and Biochemists, also Chartered Accountants.
