What type of jobs are available out here? I don't think I can do the medical or dental route. I'm looking for employment now.

The local zoo? :manny: That's a worthless degree unless you go to graduate school IMO. It's like saying you graduated pre-med, I want a job :childplease:

Yall stop trying discourage dude. I got a bio degree and I'm making over double the median U. S. salary. There's plenty of jobs that require a 4 year bio or chem degree. Threadstarter keep looking.

You have 3 options

Research
Teach
Medicine


All require at least 4 more years of schooling

You can teach science with just a Bachelor's in most states I think. I thought about teaching biology, went down to the department to talk to them and they needed science teachers so bad they were near begging me to apply. It was sad.

Eventually, this is what I want to do once I get my degree. I gotta show these minorities how easy and cool science (chemistry) can be.

Trust, I'm great at public speaking and I aint no slouch / push over. There are good and bad teachers.


With that said, I know sh*t aint easy. I remember my political science teacher in HS, had teaching down to science. He kept the room cold 24/7,
lectured for about 10-15 minutes. Kept reemphasizing points, and knew exactly when he lost students during the lecture.

It is what it is :manny:

check out Masters programs in urban planning (environmental planning as a specialty), landscape architecture...look for schools that have classes at 5 pm or 5:30 so you can still have a regular 9 -5 in the day time...
