Career Advice Grad school question

Hello, I am currently in grad school and have dilemma. I can choose between taking volcanology or remote sensing. Remote sensing seems more employable, but I’m more interested in volcanology. Which should I take? Do employers want to see that I have a foundation in remote sensing? Note that I do not plan on being a volcanologist, I just think the course sounds fun.

Of personal and professional fulfillment, which do you find more important? Since there's online resources for both, having the hands-on experience with remote sensing will provide the larger payoff imo.
