Education and Training Requirements
High School
Since you will need at least a bachelor's degree to find work as a demographer, you should take college preparatory courses, such as social studies, English, and mathematics (algebra and geometry) while in high school. In addition, take any statistics classes that your school offers. Training in computer science is also advantageous, as computers are used extensively for research and statistical analysis.
