Here it is, folks. As college students, we know we fall into certain stigmas by our parents, extended families, friends, co-workers, basically anyone whom you tell about your major. So what does your major say about your television preferences? Or what TV show best represents your area of study? This definitive list of common college majors as popular television will give you (and others) a little insight into what makes each major tick.
Political Science: "House of Cards"
Because we know you can't resist this ruthless political drama that you wish (or maybe not) your life was like.
English: "Sherlock"
No English enthusiast can resist this classic, even in TV form.
Math: "Numbers"
An oldie but goodie. Plus, there are very few good shows about math.
Communication Studies: "Criminal Minds"
It's all about how you communicate.
Psychology: "Shameless"
What psych major wouldn't jump at the chance to psychoanalyze this crazy cast of characters?
Sociology: "Brooklyn Nine Nine"
Their interactions with each other are priceless.
Engineering: "The Big Bang Theory"
You can hate me for it if you want, but Howard needs some attention for his accomplishments, too.
Parks and Recreation Management: "Parks and Recreation"
I think this one speaks for itself.
Pre-med: "Grey's Anatomy"
Again, no explanation necessary.
Theatre performance: "Portlandia"
The eccentric "Portlandia" appeals to the more creative mind.
Anthropology: "Bones"
Duh!
Education: "New Girl"
Jessica Day is the best teacher.
Environmental Science: "Survivorman"
A true environmentalist, Les Stroud is all alone out in the wilderness for weeks, showing what it's really like.
History: "Outlander"
No show has made history quite so interesting...or attractive.
Nursing: "House"
Even though House hates everyone, including nurses, he wouldn't be able to do his job without them.
Musical Performance: "Nashville"
What all music majors aspire to be as popular as.
Food Science: "Bob's Burgers"
Foodies need a little, lighthearted humor, too.
Biology: "The Walking Dead"
Because Biology majors are the ones who can tell how zombies are created, and maybe how to fix them?
Chemistry: "Breaking Bad"
Obviously.
Business/Finance: "Mad Men"
Even though business sometimes has nothing to do with it.
Management: "The Office"
This slightly unrealistic show might give you some high expectations.
Construction Management: "Fixer Upper"
Everyone, especially construction management majors, wishes they were as cool and creative as Chip and Joanna Gaines.
Sorry if your major wasn't on here, I did my best! What did I miss and what show would they be?
