Lawyer
SOC 23-1011
Lawyers advise and represent clients in courts, before agencies and in private dealings — researching the law, drafting documents, negotiating, and arguing cases. In Florida the route runs through a Juris Doctor from an ABA-accredited law school, the Florida Bar Examination and the Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination. ⚠ There is no required or preferred undergraduate major: law-school applicants arrive from every field listed below.
Psychology — 3,850 applicants, 5.2% (LSAC, 2018–19). The second-largest single major.
Data Scientist
SOC 15-2051
Data scientists turn messy data into decisions — cleaning and preparing it, building and validating statistical and machine-learning models, and explaining the result to people who will act on it. ⚠ There is no licence, no entrance examination and, for most people now working in the field, no data science degree: the occupation is older than the major.
Psychology — 10 institutions, 6,549 completions. ⚠ Listed because experimental design and inferential statistics are its methods core; the quantitative track is the part that transfers, not the degree as such.
