    Nursing School here. I hope to get an advanced practice degree (NP, aka almost a doctor but not...it's complicated) and work internationally on the Mercy Ships/Doctors without borders kinda thing. 

    Edit: It's actually a Bachelors of Science-Nursing and the next one is a master’s level, Family Nurse Practitioner

    Hmm...I am graduating with a triple major in Broadcasting, Organizational Communication and Public Relations.  I am attending grad school for a Masters in Journalism this fall.  My goal is to teach at the university level.  Schools seem to be hiring candidates who can "pitch hit", hence the multiple focuses.  If I need to work in the field for a while, I would probably pursue PR/media relations with a non-profit or university.

    After this semester I will be ~24 credits from my BA in Anthropology (General concentration so Cultural) with a Minor in Museum Studies.

    Anthropology will basically supplement an understanding of culture but my efforts have been into my minor. This fall I'm applying to Masters programs for Museum Studies/American Material Culture to eventually work in a museum as a Registrar/Collections Management/catch-all.

    I have a bachelor's in accounting, and I'm finishing my MBA with a focus in accounting right now, graduating in August.  You can do all kinds of things with this education, supposedly, but my goal has always been to work for the federal government.  Ideally with secret service or FBI, but we'll see.  I'm also considering going for a PhD in accounting and becoming a professor, there's a huge demand right now.

    I'm in my last semester of a 2 year nursing program.  I will graduate in May with my ASN (I will be an RN once I pass boards).  I'm planning on going back to school and completing my BSN online after I find a job, maybe starting before if it takes a while to find a job.  My ultimate goal is either an NP or PA.  I haven't decided which yet.

    I'm finishing up my Doctor of Pharmacy degree and am starting a Master's of Public Health degree this summer.  I'm hoping to apply for a 2-year fellowship (maybe in health outcomes, but there are a ton of possibilities right now).  Eventually, I would like to work in academics (probably a focus on health-promotion program development/research and teaching).

    Bachelor of Arts in Communication. I'm currently a Copy Editor, but that's what I focused on through my college paper and an internship. With my degree I can do any number of PR roles, event planning, speech writing, reporting, edit, proofreading, work in the non-profit sector, teaching (I'm guessing there could be a certificate).

    Currently working on my BS in Biomedical Science, which is basically Cell/Molecular Biology. After that I plan to get my Master's in Microbiology and then a PhD in Virology/Immunology.

    With that I plan to work in a lab and if I'm lucky, get a job with the CDC or something like it.

    I have a BA in Journalism and am currently working towards my Teacher Certification. I also have a year of law school under my belt, but that's another story...

    When I graduated from undergrad, the journalism market was pretty bleak, so I decided to focus my energy on law school. Discovered that wasn't where my true passion lied, so I went into education. Love it! I'm able to use my journalism degree because I'll be teaching English (hopefully--if I can get a job in this also bleak market).

    @Tswife4ever: Sociology. I finished my undergrad and am now going back for my master's and then PhD.

    I pretty much need a PhD no matter what I do (if I want to make good money) but my options are: Teach at the university/Research, or work for a political think tank (preferrably with policy making).
