What are career options for someone interested in international relations?
Katie M asked:
Right now I am a undecided on a career choice, I am in college and considering declaring a major in media studies/ journalism. I was going to do an international relations major but my school no longer offers that. I am very interested in communications, social sciences, and the French language.
Some people have suggested a career as a Foreign Service Officer, I am a little concerned about being assigned abroad. I would not mind relocating inside the US or Europe.
Are there any careers like being a Foreign Service Officer only with more flexibility on location?

you might be able to get a job with an american company that does business in parts of the world where your language skills would be useful. anywhere that french is the main language would be a possibility but you will need strong language skills and a high overall grade point would be beneficial as well.
