What do you study?

[willemvanoranje]

Just to give myself an insight on what people are studying or have studied in university. Of course multiple answers are possible, and of course there will be some people thinking it's funny to click all options (party poopers; that's you MjM, Bungholio, and Tank_Guy#3).

I chose to include just the basic courses, if you wish you can name any specific subdiscipline you might be studying. Due to limited poll options I had to leave out some possibilities of course, but feel free to mention them. I do admit that it is possible I might have forgotten an incredibly important option, but hey..that's life!

This is NOT about high school courses.

 

[Abaddon]

Biology-Zoology-Biofuels.

I beat the poll when i posted this...

I started doing a Biology Degree, Specialized into Zoology and am doing my Research paper on Biofuels.

 

[Red Door]

I'll do high school.

English (Literature and Writing), Algebra II and Trigonometry, Computer Tools, Biology, AP European History, Scripture (Bible) and Spanish.

 

[puglover]

Sophomore year of high school:

Algebra II, Philosophy, Creative Writing, Spanish

That's because it took me so long to make the poll.

Ok, so that would be one vote for biology.

 

[Kal'thzar]

mhmmm Physics; at Edinburgh...

uhh go me?

I'm done studying (for now, anyway). What I did was first a graduate degree (roughly equivalent to a Master's) in applied mathematics. A bit later I started taking completely unrelated classes for fun, part-time -- history, Latin, classical philosophy, that kind of stuff. After that I did a one-year teaching certification programme (an add-on for people who already have a degree in something or other). Altogether enough credits to add up to eight years' worth of full-time studies, though spread over a bit longer than that.

Given the right circumstances I'd consider taking up part-time studies as a hobby again.

Did you complete the mathematics undergraduate/bachelor and graduate/master?

 

[Erik Mesoy]

Mathematics and programming, although I'm not formally immatriculated yet despite having taken five courses.

 

[Winner]

International relations and/or political science

 

[willemvanoranje]

International relations and/or political science

Haha I knew it. Too many detailed insights. I'd count IR as a subdiscipline of political science though.

 

[SuperBeaverInc.]

Geomatics. The closest thing on that list is Geography, so I voted for it.

 

[The Last Conformist]

I study theoretical physics ... which apparently didn't merit it's own option.

 

[Quinzy]

i've noticed a severe lack of anything art-related there...
no graphic design, no fine art studieas, no sculpture, ceramics etc.. tut tut.

by the way, i'm in Secon Level (i'm 15) not college and i do physics, geography, art, german, english, irish, maths and computers.

It counts under physics. The applied can be left out.

True. I meant to include all of that under 'Art'.. but if it is true what you say, I forgot. My bias.

 

[Quinzy]

with all the art course bar fine art you're GUARANTEED a job in ireland, despite common myth you know

 

[puglover]

Now that the poll is up, I should mention that I plan to go for an English major in college. You don't have that as a poll option, so I put communications.

 

[Godwynn]

Economics, History, Business, Geology, Psychology, and Architecture.

All as actual university majors??
