[Raioken18]

I have cert 4's for Economics, Business Admin and Software Design.
I worked in a economic consultant agency for a while, got bored,
and the people there hated me because I kept writing macros to shortcut most of my work.
Towards the end all I needed to do was turn up for an hour, make sure my macro worked properly and then sit on my hands for the rest of the day...

So now I'm doin a BA in Psychology.
I love experimenting, and cuz of my previous experience, programming spreadsheets to analyse statistics is a breeze.

But... I still don't know what sort of job I want to do afterwards...
I love Psych, but I only have a credit average.

the one i'm studying now is in IT but it's called the Bachelor of Information Technology (Computer Games), my course goes for an extra year because i did general IT first then into games so i only got a Year's worth of credits out of 3 years, already did 1 1/2 years in the degree, only got a year cause i'm doing one course at the end of the year because it doesn't run at the start, supposed to be hardest programming in the entire uni as it's Engine work using the Uni's own games engine and Ogre (what ever that is).....he, he, can't wait to prove them wrong, love programming and spend most of my time helping everyone else because i've finished my work

 

[Scarim Coral]

I got a BA (hon) Digital 3D Design. The course is pretty much computer graphic although we were also taught some flash interactive presentation. Like time I check the course got rename to D3D Digital Media which make it far more suitable name.

 

[VampiresDontSparkle]

I'm starting Bachelor of Medicine, Surgery and Science... next year. Hopefully. >.>

 

[blankedboy]

Well, I'm in fifth form at the moment, doing 2/3s of my work a year above my level. My main three subjects are Chemistry, Biology and Information Management (effectively computer studies with a fancy name), so I'll find out what I'm best at and make a merge of two subjects to get into say, biochemistry, bioengineering, artificial intelligence, etc. So I'm setting myself up with a cone attack ^^

 

[Halceon]

Baltic philology, specialised in linguistics.
Optimally i'd like to work on cognitive linguistics, but that's in the unforseeable future.

 

[Ashendarei]

Associates in Computer Networking, in school again workin for my BA.

 

[Fetzenfisch]

I'll be a Master in germanistics and anglistics, hopefully followed by the doctor. Plus im getting some thingy for studying irish

 

[Ensiferum]

I'm also pursuing an English degree with a focus in creative writing. I love writing stories and I'm currently working on my first full-length dark fantasy novel.

 

[Stevey M]

BSc Film Technology. In my second year at the moment.

 

[irani_che]

also known as one of those real degrees.
summer jobs already pay more than many leaver would get

 

[Airthey]

I'm in my final year of a BSc Information technology and education with QTS. Thats right, i'm gonna be an ICT teacher!

 

[Sarynroth]

First year of an MEng in aerospace engineering.
Hopefully going to america for my third year.

Oh, believe me, walking into a job is not going to happen. Regardless of my degree. There are literally no jobs around at the moment, and the only firms hiring Maths graduates at the moment are the exact type of company I don't want to work for. Finance groups, banks, accountancy firms, actuaries, that sort of thing.

Suck it up and work there for a while. You'll be getting two things that are really valuable: a better looking resume when you leave and a source of income for however long you're going to work there.

The man has a point.. There's loads of jobs for Mathematicians, you just need to know where to look! Teaching is a great one if it interests you (and currently you get quite a lot of money for even considering teaching Mathematics!). Other than that it all depends on what you specialised in (pure, applied, statistics, OR).

For me I'm in my Masters year of a Mathematics degree, considering doing a PhD in London in pure Mathematics.

 

[cicaba]

Medical physics, but I almost failed.

 

[Dimensional Vortex]

I'm curious as to what my fellow escapists have degrees in. I am currently working om my Bachelor's degree in English, I intend to teach High School.

What is your degree? Or what subject do you intend to attain one in? And, what do you intend to do with it?

Wow good luck with teaching at a high school, I have a question though, do you see yourself as a strict or lenient teacher?

I don't have a degree yet, due to my age but I was thinking about getting one in Theoretical Physics or Chemistry or Medicine.

 

[zhoominator]

Have been studying a BSc joint Physics and Maths, but because of the grades I got the other day, I may well get my wish of switching over to an MPhys Theoretical Physics and Maths. Exciting stuff.

I'm looking into Summer Internships just now to if if research would be my bag. My teachers at school said they could see me as a researcher, I had much enthusiasm for my science subjects.

 

[Rickyvantof]

I'm studying Industrial Design Engineering, in my second year. It's pretty nice, but I don't know yet what I'm going to do with it.
