Flying is our main mission, however, the Air Force would not be able to carry out flying missions without help from those behind the flight lines. For almost every civilian job, there is an Air Force counterpart performing a similar job. For example, doctors, lawyers, law enforcement, engineers, meteorologists, food service, and supply management are just some of the many careers that are out there in the Air Force. Of course, there are other careers that are unique to the military such as space and missile operations. Every officer in the Air Force must have a bachelor's degree.
Some careers require more training.
Some careers have educational requirements meaning that you must have majored in the area related to the job. There are over 120 AFSCs. Check the AFSC Index for an alphabetical listing of AFSCs. UMass Amherst has a thorough listing of jobs and benefits. There are also pay charts, and career guides available at Air Force - Careers .
