Hello All. I am a rising senior undergraduate student in intercultural communication. This fall, I will make final decisions regarding my transition to a graduate program in ICC. I am strongly invested in the discipline and have had no second thoughts about pursuing a higher degree. However, as I prepare for this big step, I find myself questioning what I will be able to do with an advanced degree in the discipline. Originally, I believed I would like to use my advanced degree to conduct ICC research and teach at the university level. After completing a theory-laden senior thesis project this summer (and barely remaining composed throughout), I have reservations as to whether I would like to continue on that path. This difficult project has led me to believe that I would be better suited for an intercultural communications career with a more applied, less research-based focus. I have recently stumbled across Intercultural U and would like very much some advice from fellow, more established interculturalists who have made these difficult decisions time and time again. My question is: with an advanced degree in intercultural communication, what types of applied careers could I pursue? It is my mistake that I have not considered (until this point) alternate careers in ICC. I am seeking a more focused outlook on potential careers as I make this huge transition. Thank you for your consideration. Krishna
