First, any college degree, no matter what your major, increases your chance of getting hired. College degrees improve writing and communication skills, if nothing else, and these are extremely important in the business place.

A Mythology degree can be somewhat limiting on the surface. Of course it will help if you are going into anything associated with the arts: writing (novels, screenplays, plays, poetry, anything really), music, visual, plastic and performing arts. And of course, you could teach. It is also a useful background for historians, museum docents, any sort of tourism in areas where famous stories took place.

A degree in Mythology can also greatly enhance other degrees you may wish to pursue, particularly English, Psychology, Anthropology/Archaeology, International Studies, History, Religious Studies and any of the arts.

Joseph Campbell is a good example of someone you can look up to if you are pursuing a degree in Mythology. He did pretty well for himself as a teacher, speaker and writer.

Similar degrees to this are Classics and Folklore.
