Asked by Mas - Sat Sep 12 08:46:15 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Major doesn't matter much as long as you take (and do very well in) the pre-reqs. Those are two very different fields so you might want to shadow a PA for a bit to see if you would like it. That said, my first degree was in Business Management! You will also need to get some hands-on patient care experience, almost all schools require this. Also, you should start using the correct title for the profession. It should be Physician Assistant, with no 's at the end. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

What subject should i major in before i take up an architecture major?
Q. I was wondering what subject I should major in before going into the architecture major so that once i get into the architecture major, i will already have a good background...Do you suggest English, the Arts, Physics, Art History, etc. I'm only doing this because the school I'm applying to has the architecture major available only to junior level applicants..Thank you so much for your help! ^^ 10 points for the one with the the best answer!
Asked by hi^_^ - Sat Nov 28 15:12:56 2009 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. If it is available, the best background is probably civil engineering or a related engineering field which teaches about the physical aspects of structures. If that's not available, consider an undeclared major if possible and take some classes in art history and business. If you are interested in owning your own architectural firm some day, business would be a good background. You will probably spend most of the first two years fulfilling your general education or breadth requirements.

Asked by Cool Chaser - Sat Jan 9 12:28:03 2010 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Max Weber illustrated how social institutions are dependent on each other. In his major work, he showed that when a change occurred in the religious institution during the sixteenth century, it contributed to a change in the economic institution. Previously, most people thought of religion and economics being autonomous and completely separated from each other. Weber showed how the emerging values of Protestantism (especially as taught by John Calvin) supported the development of modern capitalism. He also introduced the idea that bureaucracy would be the wave of the future. He distinguished three types of legitimate authority in societies: traditional, charismatic, and rational-legal. He did not favor Traditional (the son of the… [cont.]

A. Ehh, some ok answers but nothing great so I guess I have to throw in my 2 cents in an attempt to "clear things up." First, you can major in anything for law and med schools. Neither "require" any particular major. For law school, pick whatever interests you the most and you can get the best grades in. Doesn't matter if it's science. There are all kinds of lawyers out there. Getting a BS qualifies you to get a job as an intellectual property lawyer. IP law is one of the "hot" law fields right now, but IP firms normally won't hire you unless you have, at a minimum, a BS in something math or science related. The patent bar requires a BS as well I believe. For med, there are a list of required courses you need to take before you can… [cont.]

A. Do you just want to translate the scripts, or do you want to do the actual voice overs? If you want to do the script thing, I would suggest that you take some English type classes. Along with that would be classes which correspond to the foreign Asian language you want to work with. Even if you are fluent with the both languages now, you still need to show that to any future potential employers. A college degree/certification of this shows written proof that you are good with the languages. If you want to do the voice overs, I would tell you to look into drama and theater type areas. Since you will be the heart and soul of a character, you need to get the emotions through to the audience. Theater/drama will help you do that. One more… [cont.]

What kinds of jobs could a herpetology major get?
Q. I love reptiles and would love to major in herpetology. However, I would like to stay in rural northern california after college and can't think of any actual jobs that a herp major could be applied to.

Asked by chelsea - Thu May 29 13:55:50 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Hey there. Marketing is a very broad category and includes a number of disciplines, two of which are Promotions and Event Planning. If I were you, I'd major in Marketing. That might provide an entry to other courses, such as Public Relations, that you might find equally enjoyable. If you want some additional advice, I'd also strongly encourage you to take some Web marketing classes. The Web has had a tremendous influence over the field of marketing the last several years, and that is only going to continue. I am not suggesting that you become a techie or a computer programmer, but the better you understand the Web and how it functions as a marketing tool, the more marketable you will be upon graduation. Good luck to you.

A. A genetic engineer is ultimately a geneticist. A geneticist needs a strong background in biology. Biology major is your answer. Try to take as many genetics/biomed courses as you can - courses such as "Mendelian genetics", "molecular and cellular biology", "immunology", "endocrinology", and "microbiology" will all be strong requirements for any graduate school who wants to train a geneticist.

The good thing for you is they are both liberal arts majors so you won't have to take any extra courses outside of the extra degree's upper and lower division courses.

A. biochem is great for a patent lawyer because some of the biggest business is in pharmaceuticals right now, you'd be in high demand as a lawyer with a background in biochem. Incidentally, after your first year of law school, you can take what is called the "patent bar" so that you get it out of the way before taking a state bar exam.

A. What kind of web developer do you want to be? Do you want to focus on design & layout, or do you want to program and work on the logic that runs the site? I would suggest you take classes in both areas, but choose a major that fits the side you're interested in. Computer science will give you a good background on programming and software development, which will be good for building web applications (think the sophisticated web apps that Google provides). It *won't* prepare you for making nice-looking, customer-friendly web sites -- you'll want to take digital media classes for that.

A. It sounds like you are thinking of a Social Work career. Many schools offer Bachelor of Social Work (BASW) programs. Once you have completed one of these undergrad Social Work major programs you will most likely need to continue on through a Master of Social Work (MSW) program. It is very hard to be a legitimate practicing marriage, family, etc type counselor without completing a Masters program. Both the undergrad and graduate work is very intensive and includes many hours of training in the field. This profession is growing at a staggering rate and is expected to keep growing. If you are willing to put in the effort to complete all of the necessary schooling you will have a very secure and rewarding career. good luck!

Asked by anthonyzubi - Sat Nov 28 20:24:46 2009 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. As mentioned above, I'd start by picking a major that can lead you in either direction. For pre-med, you'll definitely need to take something in the hard sciences. You will need a lot of science for PT as well, but it will be more varied and more general. Either way, your first couple years will mostly be your general education anyway. As you start to decide what it is you really want to do, you'll need to start narrowing your focus by the end of your sophomore year or so. At that point, you can change your major if you need to. If you soon decide you want to be a PT instead of an anesthesiologist, then you can switch from the hard sciences to a softer science such as health care sciences, kinesiology, etc.
