Answer:

Japanese is a skill, not a profession. Tell me what kind of jobs involve Japanese? Secretary in a Japanese company is just about the only one that anyone can do without training. Bilingual accountant, bilingual engineer, bilingual nurse, bilingual legal aid, Japanese teacher, legal or medical interpreter, translator: These are all common job postings you will see. They all require separate training. Japanese as a major will teach you about Japan. And if you are crazy enough to want to be a Japanese Historian, that is probably the way to go. But you will not become bilingual in 4 years of college Japanese. So, you will have a degree that really means nothing.

If I can offer you some advice, choose an area of study that you are interested and learn Japanese while you major in that. You will probably end up being better at the language than you would if you "majored in Japanese"
