How did you figure out international law was the pathway you wanted to explore?

I plan on studying Political Science in college; however, I am unsure on what I should minor in. In the future I would love to work with spanish speaking countries, so I thought maybe a spanish minor would be perfect. I am bilingual, but I believe my grammar skills could improve immensely. On the other hand, I've also heard that sociology is another minor that is extremely helpful in understanding how people act the way they do. Lastly, a minor in international- affairs/relations would be beneficial in the way that I do plan on working internationally eventually.

Carlos’s Answer

As a recruiter in this field, I've seen many candidates start their journey in international law by picking courses in diplomacy or international relations. These programs often include language electives, which can be a great advantage. Some people gain work experience first and then decide to pursue law. Early career roles like program coordinators and managers can open doors to becoming legal counsel for international firms or even diplomats.

You have plenty of time and opportunities to explore different areas. Minoring in subjects like sociology, languages, tech, or organizational theory can be very beneficial.
