That's pretty bad advice to give after graduation. Anyways, I think I'm fine in the life sciences sector.


I would not have guessed that your degree was in the life sciences based on what your thesis is about :lol:

What concentration is your MS degree? Mine is neuroscience.


Well the degree is called 'biomedical sciences', and as a major I chose management and communication - it prepares more for the industry than for research, hence the pharma-economic subject of my thesis!

It's good advice to give to someone who has yet to choose what they are going to study, but it's weird to say that to someone who is about to graduate, that's what I meant :smile:

It is certainly better advice for a first or 2nd year student but considering most people in o ur working career will need a masters for any mid-level or higher jobs it actually will remain viable for as long as continuing education/training is conducted- which should be always! Complacency and apathy are the forerunners of defeat. I do congratulate you though. I myself was the first in my family to ever graduate college (Biology). Being the first means I had to figure out everything on my own. My degree is only good formed school or masters programs so far despite being much harder to get than a business or marketing degree. I wil go back for my masters in Bioengineering or something other to increase my competitiveness on the global market of which we are all now a part (except maybe Britain haha- jk).

I'll be getting my bachelor's degree in civil engineering next year. However, I don't think I enjoy having a job (the schedule, hours, etc) so I think I might just keep staying in school.

My thesis was on Intercultural differences between Dutch (fastest in EU) and Korean (fastest in the world) Internet infrastructure Investments. It did get me a job at Hyundai.

I think the responsible way to do it is to get my masters while having a job, and having them help me pay for it.

It has nothing to do with apathy. You have to commit yourself to a certain field at a certain point. If I would choose to specialize in 3D printing right now, my previous 6 years of studying would go to waste (your grade is only valuable on the job market a few years after you've graduated), and employers would see me as an 'eternal student'. Also, a lot of employers will hire from a large range of diploma's. You will receive additional training on the job anyways, as I will get (just signed a contract to start as a clinical data manger).

Oh ok I am starting to understand now :smile: I had to look up pharmacoeconomics- very interesting sounding field of study. Certainly comes up a lot in discussion of common anti-depressants like fluoxetine, which aren't efficacious but are far cheaper to use compared to paying for therapy.

My last thing to do before getting my degree is to first finish up my internship (of which half is spent on ESOC), write up 40 pages of bullshit about my internship, make a 20 minute presentation about my internship and get a good mark on it all.
