Data Analytics or Information Systems will generally offer broader career opportunities and higher salary potential compared to Digital History.

- Data Analytics: Best if you want to work in data-driven roles (e.g., data analyst, marketing analyst) across industries. Strong demand and competitive salaries.
- Information Systems: Ideal if you're interested in combining technology and business (e.g., IT consultant, business analyst). Also offers good job prospects.
- Digital History: Suited for those passionate about humanities, research, or cultural institutions. Career paths are more specialized and often academic.

With your background in Political Science and Library Science, Digital History aligns well if you want to stay in humanities, but for broader employability, Data Analytics or Information Systems is recommended.
