Do-over - what career would you pick?
#25
ghwang808 Wrote:Although I don't currently have the career that I want, I'm pretty much going for what I want right now. I've finished up my math degree and am planning to complete the Computer Science degree at TESU this year. I also plan to complete engineering degrees as well a little later.

However, if I had to choose then it would be pursuing a double Bachelor's degree in AE and Astrophysics at Embry-Riddle in Daytona Beach and maybe take a few flying classes there. Masters degree in Space Studies at UND then I'd do my Ph.D. in AE at UC Boulder or something. My dream career is working for NASA, then eventually into science policy for the WH or some gov. org. and teach at a college.

Wow! That's awesome. Haha, my dream was to go study something in the field of Neuro-Science OR work as a research scientist and conduct clinical trials for Cancer. I took the TESU BSBA as a check the box degree as it was cheap/easy/fast. I was debating and thinking of a TESU CS/Math double major degree, but finally decided on Bio/CS as Biology is my first choice.

Just wondering, if you're really close to completing the CS degree from TESU, you may want to see if you can get it all done by late August. If my guess is correct, you need only a handful of CS courses that can be done entirely through Study.com, it'll save you from doing 24 credits in CS later and an extra grad + residency waiver fees.

I would recommend a TESU Double CS/Math major vs two degrees at TESU and then getting a third degree for Engineering. (Having a double major looks better (that's what I would go for instead if I had the choice, wait, I am!!) From looking at your previous post, you should be close. Do you think you can do 5 Study.com courses a month? If you can, just two months and you're done with your BA Comp Sci as well...
