Pros and cons of these two career fields?
I’m not sure on which career field to enter I’m debating between getting a bachelors in human resource management/ business administration or getting a bachelors or degree to become an ultrasound technician. I’ve tried doing research on these careers and have not been able to find average salary, job growth, exact job duties (other than the obvious) I live near Chicago Il and I’d just like some pros and cons on each as well as any school suggestions. The shorter the schooling and the least expensive route would benifit me the best. So any advice, facts, job responsibilities etc would be appreciated. Thanks

tech will actually give you a job, the biz/hr doesn’t guarantee anything

Sonographers make on avg $63k/yr. Here is a link with all the info you are looking for: http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos273.htm
There isn’t really a shortcut into ultrasound…most common is a 2 year associate’s degree after you complete the requirements. Technical schools are the best bet, and also the most affordable.

You should really look into job shadowing both of these to get better insight on them. Good luck -
