I have a bachelor’s degree, business admin with a secondary emphasis in hr. I am, however, still employed in the RIF workplace we have today.
Criminal justice might get you a decent salary, depending on what you do with it. Sociology might be good if you become a counselor in the private sector. But social work and hr…social work no money; hr too unstable.
You might want to ask each of these questions seperately (assuming you are not looking for someone who has all these degrees).
In general a BSW makes 20-40K right out of school and 30-50K 5 years out.
An MSW makes 40-60K right out and 50-80+K 5 years out.
In general if you work in human resources in the for profit world you will probably make the most (especially if you can work for a fortune 500). If you work in some area of the human services you will make the most with an MSW at the MA level and BSW at the BA level.
