BS is Computer Science. I work for Symantec doing development on the Security Vulnerability Assessment team.
computer science at A&M, led to a full-time software engineering job in washington dc straight out of college.
first i came into college majoring in petroleum engineering. after 2 years i hated it and then i changed to a history major and i wanted to minor in french. the french minor was too hard for me since no one around here speaks french. so i changed it to a government minor. i am now a professional equity trader a year after graduating. so that shows you what my degree did for me!!! i didn't even need a degree to get this job, but all my studying about the stock market after i graduated helped me get it. i found what i really loved to do after i graduated.
General Studies. I am a jack-of-all-trades, and a master of none. Not really. I do what I studied for... it's in my profile.
Isabel: Let's shift this thread to one for complaints on chemistry/lab stuff.. [Chemistry Stuff] I am having some problems with GC these days, too, while running some quantitative analysis. BTW, I also have never had good luck with HPLC.... One "easy" way I find to have something published is to do some calculations: it always spits out enough data, not necessarily breakthough type, but always tells you one thing or two about the truth. Many softwares are commercialized. You may use your personal computer to do that or workstations in your department/college. If you have access to some supercomputer center, that'll be terrific and you will be very productive...
