What is the best Army officer branch to commission into?

Agree with COL Halvarson, Cyber is very promising. If you want to stay in service and reach higher rank in the Army, then consider Infantry or Field Artillery. To be competitive in Infantry you will need to be Airborne and Ranger qualified. If you go light infantry you'll also need to be Jumpmaster qualified. I like Military Intelligence, which was my branch, and it has some promising post-service opportunities that would work with your economics degree. CIA is very interested in people with economics and business acumen. Logistics is very important and has some great opportunities after service as well, in shipping and inventory management (Wal-Mart, Amazon, etc.)

If you want a job with civilian potential, intell or signal is your best bet, but if you want a career in the military and possibilities for promotion, choose any of the combat MOS's, special forces if you can make it in.

Everything now touches Cyber. I think logistics is the most versatile. If I did it all over I would look at Intelligence closer. After a few years you can move to a functional area given the needs of the Army. You can potentially transfer branches as well. Branch details also provide great experiences. It’s a tough decision. Good luck.

I'm partial to Armor.

Anything in the NAVY!!!

As someone that got out as an E4 and then got a Comouter Science degree if you are trying to enter tech I would strongly recommend you look into the 17A mos. it’s extremly competitive and they are major specific. I believe IT might get you in the door, but I know they prefer EE and CS majors. It’s a tough interview process, but you’ll be doing cyber security with the NSA and other government organizations in DC. If you don’t know how to code I would also recommend you pick it up if you are looking for the higher paying tech careers.

One word. Cyber.

Cyber. Hands down. That takes of you, but remember you will be responsible for those Soldiers under your command who you will be accountable for. Keep that in mind and them. Wax on, Wax off.

Was a 70K Medical Logistics now 90A. Logistics. Opportunities are endless in Logistics field. Full time jobs, bonuses (20K) and deployments.

Go Air Force instead.
