Counterterrorism

Hello board! First time being here and can’t wait to interact with the board! I’m going to be declaring my major by next semester and I had a question. I want to enter the counterterrorism field and I’m not sure which major will give me the best path there. I’m going to choose between Political Science or International Affairs. Which of these two degrees would best equip me to work in the field? My school also offers two minors that may be of interest. A minor in Security and Conflict Studies and a minor in Middle Eastern Studies. Which of those two would look better on my resume? I already have three semesters of Arabic and plan to enter the advanced levels of Arabic while I’m in school.

International Affairs. Either of those minors sound good too, but the ME might focus you onto ME terrorism where Security might offer more on a macro lens.
