A polite player might call my card choices "interesting." At my budget, "interesting" is the only option.
Yeah, being a woman, getting a doctorate can be a tricky business if you want a family and all that.
But previous generations have done it!
I never said I wanted a family and its sad you expect me to want one or even consider one in my career path because I'm a woman. In the last century having children has gone from an expectation to a choice but you wouldn't know it sometimes. I may one day adopt some children(domestically if possible) but it will be when I can afford to do so and after my education is concluded.
I was referring to the years and years of research I'd have to do for a phD when I could be in the field doing the kind of work I'd like to do instead. My goal is to improve the array of services to the LGBT community, particularly the teen population. I want to reduce homelessness and pregnancy and encourage leadership and activism in Buffalo's LGBT high school students. If I choose research and a phD I may never get to do those things.
Sorry, I just noticed this. Yeah, the poll screws you over.
I guess, what with there being specialist master's degrees by coursework, such as the MBA, I should have added the option of professional degree and master's. Thankfully, you were intelligent enough to check both master's and the professional degree. Cheers.
interest in theology and possible interest in pastoral duties at some point
Ah! Sounds pretty cool and groovy as a professional degree. I considered it for all of five seconds but remembered religion, sadly, isn't really my shtick (no offence. I don't mean to imply that religion is, you know, farcical or whatever).
I mean shtick in the original, traditional sense, as in thing.
What would "Law Degree" equal to? I know in the US, it's a post-graduate degree, but in germany, it's actually a college degree with another two years of actual "real work" added upon and another exam (kinda sorta like the BAR, I guess?).
They also have that in Australia, New Zealand and England. Um, well, you posted, so that's all right.
I guess it would be a diploma rather than a professional degree. However, since it qualifies, or is part of what qualifies, you to practise, then it would also be a professional degree too.
Bachelor of Science in Journalism, Bachelor of Swing Jazz? I'm just guessing and can't really be bothered to Google.
We just call journalism degrees Bachelor of Arts, perhaps majoring in media and communication studies.
You are correct = Bachelor of Science of Journalism. Much to my dislike.
I should've went for an English degree, but some of my high school teachers and counselor persuaded to me to pursue journalism:
- "you can't pass up being accepted by one of the Top 5 journalism schools in the country." (at the time)
- "Journalism and English degrees are basically interchangeable."
Etc., etc.
Little did I know that:
- journalism studies practically beat adjectives out of a writer. PLBBTT!
- the Internet would blow up as it is now; thus making print journalism near obsolete.
- My freshman year was '96/'97
- in Fall of 2000 I took "Online Journalism" (I don't recall the exact name, but it was a new class added to the curriculum, as an elective).
I do have a "minor" in Creative Writing. Whilst getting my Journalism degree, Ohio U. required X amount of hours for "specialization." I chose English- Creative Writing. The amount of credit hours for it essentially amounts to a "minor." Or whatever.

Sorry, I didn't really get too many words of what you were saying. Internet: the bane of print media as well as journalism itself. That was more or less it, right?
Surely, those graduates holding B.Sc.Journ.s must adapt as others must to this brave new world or their skills are applicable to things other than journalism alone.
M / 30 / Bachelor's Degree in History which has me in a banking job interestingly enough. LOL.
Yes, I guess there are many other things that could be done, as could anyone else, but what else would you have done other than becoming a banking guy?
I don't mean to call anyone out; but, Catalmafie, what is it that you hold?
Yeah, sorry. You are correct. That's the standard abbreviation at the school I went to, as opposed to BTh (Bachelor of Theology), and BACSE (Bachelor of Arts, Christian School Education). They've added more programs since I left.

Man, you guys need to use periods for my sake.
Whoops. I guess I feel special again, then. I not read graph good. Looks like I read the BA/BS degrees as the MA/MS degrees.

Okay, really?
Anyway, FYI, I simply made a comment without it being loaded. I may have misinterpreted this during the dark of night.
Much appreciated.
Wow, that is a lot of studying!
Wow, an MDiv! The MSEE and PhD seems like a very logical progression from a BSEE, but what prompted you to undertake the MDiv?

The definition of university and college are clearly distinguished between in the United States.
university = master's/doctorate granting institution
college = bachelor's granting institution
OR
university = entire academic institution
college = one portion of the university (i.e. College of Letters and Science)

I know I have asked what are they good for and someone answered very well, but I don't think I asked how they compare, at least regarding their worth.
