PhD IT, $383 PCH, Bachelors entry, thoughts!?

I'm not arguing, seriously, thats wjy I left the CJ major everything is an argument based on falicies.

Lets think logically okay? How did the uni get its data? Was it qualitiative? Quantitative? In one state where the uni is located or was it across the country?

Well if a local university did a survey on current employees in lets say my local comm and telcom industries about which majors are popular in those fields CIS and IT would be a huge percent more then EEs adn CE majors! Since here CIS and IT is offered everywhere and is way more popular than CS. Most people dont knoe CS, they call everything IT. So when the Irish based Digicel came here and regional Bmobile started IT and CIS was the talent available, so they hired those persons and trained them to do the more EE and Comm related stuff. Now it the Uni says oh a CIS or IT degree gets you into the telcom industry. They wont be wrong.

Universites are not trade schools and everyone misses that. Universities educate you. The end goal of universities is to get a PhD and add new knowledge to the field. It all leads up to that. Yes every company wants that bachelors or masters for thr job, but universites dont care about that!

You really think a CJ program can prepare you for the academy!? No it does not! It gives you ideas on things but it cant prepare you for induction training.

What it can do is come up with a new theory as to how the socioeconomic status of officers affects their performance at the academy.

If the law enforment agency needs to consult someone on a developing a new training program, who will they consult? The high school grad with 20 years experience? Or the professor who did his thesis on training and teaches graduate level courses on the topic?

Isn't ACE an academic body that verfies workforce training and work experience? So who knows more? The body stating that you know what you are doing, or the guy doing the thing?

I get mad at this cause everyone says that Unis dont prepare you for the job. They're not meant too! Lets say you learn web development with ruby on rails and todat we use node.js will it be helpful!? No it will not! But a uni teaches you the knowledge needed to form an abstract point of view understand the principles of constructing interfaces and engineering principles for scaling and what not.

So if in 10 years we get a holographic interface, you know what!? You will know jow to learn it! Becuase you know concepts.

Ever watch shark tank? Dragons den? I did watch those after he told me that and he was right.

Well I guess if that's what the TV people say...

The guys I spoke to is local here and very successful, he became so successful his business became international and he migrated and he put me on to those watching those shows. I wish I was in the field his company does though, he would make an awesome mentor!

I want to work in the semiconductor industry though, so cant go that route.
