1. foreign affairs, languages, etc
2. languages, political science, and a good internship or two. Don't get into any trouble with the law, because nearly all of those jobs will require a security clearance.
3. i wanted to go into foreign service when i got out of the air force and was told i needed to get a degree in political science with another major in french language. probably don't need french now, but foreign language study is probably still required.
4. its diplomatic relation course or foreign affairs
