Health Care Career after degree in Agricultural Business?

My entire life I grew up around animals, on a farm, joining the National FFA Organization. So when Senior year of high school came, it was no question what I would be going to college for... AGRICULTURAL BUSINESS. Now, don't get me wrong, I love my major, but I'm having some major problems with my future. I'm worried that perhaps, I chose the wrong major (I'm thinking that I may have just chosen my major because it was in my comfort zone, and because I know nothing else) and I should just graduate with an associates instead of my planned bachelor's degree and then transfer to an unrelated major.



I would really love to graduate with my bachelor's degree in Agricultural Business (and possibly an associates degree in something like Horticulture or Floral Design for kicks), and then go to graduate school for a career in Health Care. The job security and pay scale is what is most enticing (I'll have at least $60,000 in student loans).

Ultimately, your job history is going to shape your career more so than the actual degrees you obtain. If you are really interested in a health care career with a masters degree, try getting a masters in health care management. It will be the easiest to obtain with the least amount of doctor-patient responsibility. Your primary function will be working with different health insurance agencies or government health care programs. The salaries for someone with this degree type can start around $60,000 per year and cap at around $125,000 per year. There are no long hours, there are no "on-call" statuses. You work an average work week.
