Academics: What's the Sexiest Field of Study

{ Life }

July 30, 2008

What’s the sexiest area of study in your esteem?

For me, these are at or near the top:

  • Geology
  • Niche history, like medieval European or Icelandic or pre-Spanish Mesoamerica, local history
  • Art History
  • Literature
  • Anything that allows you to do ground-breaking and obscure academic research that might lead to the cure for cancer.

    CS didn’t make it in your top 5?

    What about all the medical professions?

    Metallurgy. Also topology. And paleobotany.

    Mike was over tonight and expressed part of what I was trying to get at: anything that takes you into the field. You know. Pith helmets and the like. As my art history professor always said: “Travel broadens.” And academics of certain stripes are often some of the best-traveled folks out there.
