xxxxxxx: What science careers incorporate knowledge of foreign languages?
I’m looking at colleges and wondering what to major in. I’m very interested in science (specifically biology, genetics, chemistry, and astronomy, but science in general as well), and I’ve been studying Spanish and French. I’d like to pursue these topics in college, but I’m not sure what practicality they’ll have together in terms of future jobs. Are there any science careers that require or can benefit from a knowledge of multiple languages, and if so, which are they?
