Whats yoru degree in and what do you do with it?
Kinda curious what kind of degrees are held around here and are you doing what you want with them.
I hold 2 associates and a BS in Poli Sci.... as far as doing with them what i wish i was doing no. I went back and got my paralegal degree and done some work but not a lot to gain the exp i want. SO i run the family franchise business daily ops from home. Though were in process of selling the entire thing so now i am frantically searching for a position in a firm to be a family law paralegal |
My B.A. is in English. I'm a trigonometry class away from an A.A. in Business Administration. I'm starting that class next week! Yay! Currently, I'm working on applications to graduate school...I keep changing my mind about my field of study, but I think I've decided on Public Administration.
Edited for Spelling:p |
I didn't finish my degree...yet. When I left school I was working towards a general B.A (no major), when I return I am going to complete my general B.A was with a specialization in Political Science.
I am going to Seneca College (a community college) in september to get my Law Clerk Diploma. Then it's back to Guelph to finish my degree which I am so close to getting. ETA: I am working as a clerk for a media company (actually Rogers Communications for the Canadians...I'm sure you have heard of it ;) ) I don't have an exciting job, and it's certainly not what a want to be doing with any sort of post secondary education. I'm not sure what kind of law interests me as of yet, but I am also looking at family law. |
I have a BS and an MS in computer science. I am a software engineer for a computer hardware company. I write software that writes test programs.
|
I have a degree in political science with a minor in sociology and I'm currently in law school. I have to say though, with the demand for patent attorneys I wish I had an engineering degree!
|
I have a degree in Liberal Arts, and I'm a receptionist. But really, I'm too lazy to get a *real* job, so I don't fully blame my crappy degree.
|
I have a BA Economics and Poli Sci with a second major in Ancient History/Classics, an MA (Oxon) (Taught) in Comparative Law and Legal Systems, and I am currently in Law School (2L second semester).
I am seriously considering Army JAG since I have had two tours of active duty, first: in Europe just after finishing my undergraduate degree, and second: last year in South West Asia where I had to take a leave of absense from school to report for duty. If I decide not to go Regular Army I will stay in the reserve and see what opportunities might be out there. Although my grades are solid and I did well in Moot Court during first semester 2L, my Army call up meant no Law Review. To be honest I'm just as happy as Law Review types weird me out. In the UK they would be good Solicitors but very poor Barristers and Advocacy/Litigation is my first love. Well, actually, the Theta who got away was my first love, but you know what I mean. |
BS Computer Engineering. I write data replication software for a backup/storage software company.
I'm also working toward a Bus. Admin - Accounting degree, and after that it's on to law school. |
I use my J.D. to do legal work in the areas of real estate, wills/probates. etc. (no litigation for me!). I primarily do title examinations for a title company (we have alot of oil & gas to worry about in West Texas, so it's an interesting puzzle sometimes), and then I do alot of the curative work involved to clear clouded titles.
Trying to grow my business to include foreclosures and am thinking about getting my license to become an Escrow Agent so I can do my own closings as well.... Before law school, I used my BS in Speech Comm to be a corporate trainer and contract negotiator for a major managed care company in Dallas. |
I have a degree in Information Systems, but I'm currently working on my JD.
I'm going to take the bar, but I don't know if I ever want to practice. I hate law school, and I hate my job as a law clerk. I'd like to get back into IT, actually. |
I have my BA in History and I work for a historical museum here in L.A. in the education department.
|
I'm wrapping up a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies: K-6th grade concentration with a minor in Political Science... I will be teaching any grade between Kindergarten and 6th grade.
|
My degree is in English & Psychology, with an Early Childhood Education Certification. I'm now a geriatric counselor. It's not a big leap at all! :)
|
I have a B.A. in Music and a B.S.B.A. in Business Administration & Law. I work currently as a labor & employment law paralegal. I do plan on going to law school within the next 2-3 years, but I think I might either obtain my M.B.A. first or do a dual-enrollment program whenever I start law school.
|
My degree is in Journalism. I am currently unemployed. Go figure. *heh*
|
My degree is also in journalism, and I write for a newspaper.
|
I have a B.S. in Business - Management Information Systems. Right now I am a supervisor on a Help Desk. I like my job, but I am not really using my degree. I will probably head off to Grad School as soon as I figure out what I want to do with the rest of my life.
|
Another Journalism degree here! At Pitt, though, it is technically a Bachelor's in "English Writing - Journalism Concentration".
I have done very little newspaper writing. None since college, actually. Instead I took my degree and went to work in Public Relations. I'm "retired" now, but I still freelance when I feel like it. |
I have a B.A. in Sociology and Criminology, but I don't do anything with it. I am the Marketing Director at a small plaintiff's law firm.
|
I have a B.S. in Psychology. The B.S. stands for Bull Sh*t because that's exactly what this degree is ;). Needless to say I am doing nothing with my degree. I got married back in September and have been taking my time looking for the right job.

|
My degree is a B.A. in Political Science. Not much you can do with this degree thats not as boring as a box of rocks, so I currently work part time at a small law office as a paralegal/secretary. The other part of the time I live the life of leisure :) I start Law School in the fall.
|
I have a b.s. in chemical engineering. I work for a natural gas company as a project engineer installing gas gathering systems and also as a process engineer working on our natural gas processing plants.
|
I have a BAH (Bachelor of Arts, Honours) in Drama and History and I'm currently working on an M.Ed in The History of Education. Next year, I'll be taking a certificate in Human Resources Management. So yes, I'm a professional student! :eek:
|
I have a BA in Geography and Environmental Studies and a JD. My practice is primarily focused on real estate, securities and general litigation and securities transactional work.
I only really use my undergraduate major when I am dealing with real estate matters. |

I have a B.A. in Poli Sci, History, and Communication from Pitt. Currently in the 2nd year of my JD at Pitt. My undergrad major did give me a bit of background in constitutional law and helped my writing. I will be employed this summer and next year as a law clerk at a popular plaintiff's firm here in Pittsburgh.

I have a B.S. in elementary education, a MLS (master of library science), and a Ph. D. in library science. I'm an elementary school librarian. I have also done some teaching at the college level, but the money is better in the public schools (go figure)
But I really want to be an actress!!! (well, I'd like to make money at it. Community theatre doesn't really pay) |
Romance.
-Rudey --Graduated with honors |
Sorry, but in your own mind, Da!
Sounds Like a BS In BS!:rolleyes: |
Tinydancer, I feel your pain. I too have a doctorate--as well as a master's and bachelor's (all 3 in horticulture)--and can get paid about $20K more for teaching secondary school than I can teaching college.
I'm not teaching hort--I'm teaching Spanish, which I'm ABD in--but paywise, it doesn't matter in the public schools. If you can pass the rough certification tests to teach in GA, you get the salary commensurate with your highest degree. |
Sorry, But Teachers are under paid, for being probation officers, seregate parents, Baby Sitters, Law Enforcement or anything else you can call them but teachers!:mad:
I at one time wanted to be a Instructor, College only! Thank god I changed My Major! Fuc*ing Thank You ACLU, You Fu*ks!:mad: |
