Material science has enormous potential I think as a getting on the ground floor type of thing. I worked before going to college, so this is a second career for me, so I’ve got my age working against me no matter what my GPA and standing are, it’s just a fact (no good arguing).
To my thinking, no matter what your major is (or your age), you should have something to fall back on which isn’t reliant on a lab full of expensive equipment.
I don’t think you can go wrong with Communications. That’s one of the few things my school is plowing money into right now.
Wishing you and your the best, and happy New year to you :)
Thank you, and happy New Year to you, too.
I assumed you were the same age as my sons. I have no idea what your age is, but many people return to college later. After high school, I went to a two-year college, earned an A.S., and then just worked. At 26, I went to a university - I thought I was so old back then. I soon came across many other students in their late 20’s, not to mention middle-aged students including one mom with grown children and one guy who was old enough to be a grandpa. I stopped one semester short to raise a family, and now at 51 (cough, cough) I’m looking into finishing my degree. (It’ll probably be a degree in English, too, though I’d go for an IT major if I were younger.)
So, yeah, I hear ya’ on the age factor. lol Good luck to you, whatever your age. I hope we both find good-paying work!
