Top 10 Weirdest Majors

After experimenting with different elective classes and talking over your goals with an academic advisor, it’s time to settle on that one major that will ultimately get you your dream job. Many college students choose the traditional route, such as accounting, engineering or pre-med, but others aim for more off-the-wall jobs. Pick up one of these majors to steer off the beaten path:

No. 10: Egyptology Offered at all Ivy League schools except Dartmouth, this Cleopatra-themed major will up your knowledge of the Nile, pyramids and all things mummified. Just steer clear of the asp.

No. 9: Bagpipes Head to Carnegie Mellon University to channel your inner Celt -- kilt and all.

No. 8: Viticulture and Enology At Cornell or UC Davis, stray from your classmates’ daily keg-stand activities, and instead focus your college years on making wine. Classy.

No. 7: Bowling Vincennes University offers a program in bowling industry management and technology. Learn how to use a Vacu-Jig drill and Kegel Sanction SE lane machine.

No. 6: Comic Art Always doodling during class? That’s the whole point with this degree from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. Sketchy.

No. 5: Equestrian Studies Remember that childhood dream of owning a horse? Giddyup at William Woods University! Note to self: Pack riding gear.

No. 4: Wig and Makeup Design Hey, maybe Kim Zolciak of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” should have signed up for this program at Webster University before pretending to launch her line of fake hair.

No. 3: Nanoscience Studying normal-sized objects isn’t exactly your forte? Turn to Massey University to study matter and other stuff that measures out at one billionth of a meter. Don't forget your microscope.

No. 2: Bakery Science Who can resist a co-ed who smells like cookies? Maybe you can have a bake-off with the Cake Boss or Ace of Cakes after earning your degree from Kansas State.

No. 1: Sexuality Studies Further your (sexual) education with a master's from San Francisco State. Just tell your late-night hookup you're doing some extra credit.
