The career path for an individuals with a degree in social studies is a bit limited, and really only will prepare you for a job working as a teacher.

Now that is not to say you cannot pursue careers in other areas, it just means that the typical path is teaching.

Other areas that may be of some interest, including:

Anthropology, archeology

Communication studies

Cultural studies

Demography

Economics

Human geography

History

Linguistics

Media studies

Political science

Psychology

Social work

Sociology
