      The best country for college education is the USA. The Best major to study is Medicine. The best country to make money in is China, but for foriengers. The best country to live in for an English speaking person is Canada and new zealand in 2021.
      Try to study medicine, if you don't like medicine then go for CS or CE. you can do MBA later but don't go for undergraduate business degrees. if not these 2 then become an airline pilot. start from early age because every year you are not making money you are wasting it. the money you make early life is worth X2 of what you make later in life, both because of enjoyment and because if you invest 100k now you will get 761k back in 30 years. now this is my advice for you, use it or leave it. it is up to you. you can use the investment calculator online to calculate your investment, the average return rate is 7% a year. good luck.

Much cheaper to employ skilled professionals in India, China, South Korea, Japan, Pakistan, Indonesia, Eastern Europe, etc. It's often much less expensive to employ professionals in the markets US companies want to sell to than in the US itself.

      @prairie mark I think I know what you're talking about. I felt my HS 20 years ago was harder than my college. I'm just finishing up college at 41. It just seemed dumbed down and so easy to cheat or instructors just pretty much giving you all the answers to tests. I remember taking advanced bio in HS and we were constantly taking notes and going over slides and other things. The entire class period every day was spent taking down tons of info and then we would go over it the entire week. Quizzes would be out of nowhere and they called them pop quizzes. You didn't know they were coming. It's not like that now. I bet I didn't take one note in class or feel I had to. They just never piled a lot of stuff on us really. I had plenty of time to do homework . It would be like one assignment a week if that. Sometimes none at all. HS was harder. It was an assignment every damn day just about. Luckily for me I know how to research things from my HS days and can figure out stuff on my own to help me understand what I might not know right now, which still seems like a hell of a lot we were never taught. I'm assuming a lot will be learned while working in the field, but some things I'd like to know now. Some things we seem to learn backwards too. Things I think we should know from the beginning isn't coming up until now after I'm almost done with all my classes.

    For a very long time, I wanted to convince my son to do a Computer Science degree. He chose Civil Engineering instead.
    He was right. Today, you can learn coding from the internet much cheaper and much more efficiently, than by doing a degree. You won't have a degree, but skills are more important than a paper. Most jobs will do skills interviews anyway, and if you have good skills, you will beat the ones that only have a degree.
    On the other hand, to do any civil engineering, you need a degree, otherwise, you won't be hired in the field.
    Smart kid.
    The moral is: do a degree in something that REQUIRES a degree and acquire skills more efficiently when you can do it from somewhere else.

    I believe universities have the obligation to publish the percentages of their graduates who can find employment in their studied fields. This will greatly help the student applicants to decide if they can pay back the student loans after they graduate. Moreover, nowadays universities r run like businesses, students & their parents (the consumers) should not be charged tuitions (price) that outweigh the values (jobs & salaries graduates will get) from goods (degrees) they pay for.

    Good video. I agree about number five, mathematical degrees such as statistics. My sister studied applied mathematics, statistics. Before she graduated recruiters would asked her department counselor to supply them with a USB stick of all the graduating seniors. They didn't care, they just wanted to know names, email addresses, phone numbers. She got emails weekly. Come recruiting day, instead of setting up in the gymnasium and all majors come, the statistics department had its own setup. Wow. I accompanied her to see the job prospects. So many companies setup just for "statistics recruiting day." Healthcare (Kaiser Permanente), technology (Oracle, Cloudera, Facebook), insurance (Liberty Mutual, State Farm Insurance), sports (ESPN), education (school districts, US Dept. of Education), automotive industry (Tesla, Hyundai Motor Group), agriculture (Monsanto) and others were there. I was both so proud yet so darn jealous of her. It seemed like every industry was looking for a statistician. It is a relatively unknown yet powerful degree programme.

Even though I had a degree, they weren't accepting officer program candidates, only AIT training which was essentially enlisted foot soldier . I investigated every branch at the time and they were on a recruiting freeze because so many individuals at the time were signing up because the economy was in shambles. I applied for every job I could. Stood in day labor lines that was over 5 blocks long for a possibility of only 3 jobs available at that time. Like I said it doesn't matter if you have an engineering degree from a top school if no one is hiring. It's all about the timing to be able to have those opportunities present.

      @The Algorithm Depends on the reason. If you are getting the degree for a career and to get a job, I would say no because there are many other paths that would do that for cheaper/free that you don't have to deal with the BS of the gatekeepers and the student debt. See it would be all about timing and if you end up graduating during a recession or depression, it would screw up your life. Because of the student debt and not having revenant work experience. If you want to take a path of an Electrical Engineer, I would suggest first getting a job in something relevant then going to get the degree or go to trade school first and have a trade that you could make a living. However with that said, the knowledge, critical thinking, problem solving, and the theory is really useful and can be applied in multiple ways like in software engineering, wiring and electrical work, and the technical areas. Just because it difficult degree with current demand doesn't mean you will be valuable in the marketplace, because what matters the most is work experience in the niche that a employer is looking for. Education doesn't mean jack to employers, only proven history and results.

    • @eberronbruce1328
      @eberronbruce1328 3 роки тому

      @The Algorithm That would depend on the employer. When I was getting my degree, a common tactic employers would do is offer internships or co-ops for juniors and seniors. And before they graduate offer them a job to force them to drop out so the individual didn't have the degree and thus could move to another company so easily and pay them cheaper. But that was during a good economy before things went to crap. What I notice is work experience is king, and the magic numbers to hit is 3 and 5 years. You will see a lot of entry level/ junior level jobs requiring 3 years at least. One of the major factors of college regardless of degree is to consider cost and debt. If you take on $40k+ debt to go to college expecting to make $70k/year, but end up working at Starbucks for like $10/hr because all the employers are telling you take a hike. That can be one of the worse positions you can find yourself in as you become essentially a debt slave as student loans cannot be forgiven even if you file bankruptcy. You have to understand this, it is not what you desire it is what the employers desire. For career paths particularly when it comes to employee status is dictated by the market. Hence things like getting hired, promotions, pay, ect.. is really controlled by the employer. Unless you have the cash to afford 4+ years of university (which has gone up like 400% in the last 10 years) and can work for free for at least 2 years to have the work experience, I would rethink my plan. The EE knowledge and skills are useful and get you to see the world differently, but I would have a backup or a guarantee job (like from a relative or friend who has deep connections in the field) relative to your studies before diving in. And by the way, depending on the job/company they may require a BS in EE along with EIT and PE license.

It is an extremely tough and difficult program that requires a lot of late nights and weekends of study. And not everyone can make it. So, you will extremely determined, sharp, and function without sleep. I suggest not trying to work a full time job and studying full time because that is a recipe for disaster. Make sure your funding and your time is in order first. Least things you need is to have things outside your study to occupy your mind.

    For me, the settled trifecta of degrees worth the cost of rising college tuition is medicine-engineering-law. Tech is obviously a fourth that has come up recently but I think in time, it'll settle into software engineering vs technician like other industries. The general consensus is to go into tech so as more people are able to do the grunt work like coding, the more it'll start trending towards middle tier salaries. With a formal software engineering degree keeping the "six figure tech salary", it'll be back to being medicine-engineering-law once again.

    Great video - very informative. Too bad not enough young people get this type of information. Seems the society pushes everyone towards college without any direction. That results in many kids taking the easy way out with useless degrees just to get the 'college experience'. Parents need to get involved in their children's decision as they are shelling out thousands of dollars and providing their kids with an opportunity. I used my GI Bill along with many part time jobs to get my engineering degree. I am so glad that I took the more difficult path than just copping out with a 'communication' degree like so many others did. Four - five years of studying my butt off and pulling all nighters resulted in a very comfortable life.

Although at the time I thought I would probably go into counseling but I changed my mind and fast forward to now, on this small island so many ppl have a psychology degree. Now that am thinking about advancing my studies, I don't even know what to do. I feel kinda lost. Am trying to figure out how to get away from minimum wage.

Can you find any problem solving methodology by your program(or any skill to take from there)? For example a programming course of mine gave me a software development cycle: 1. Requirements analysis 2. Design 3. Implement 4. Testing 5. Maintenance. Aka 1. Shorthand notes from the source 2. Make a chronologically ordered chart 3. Step to step break it down into simpler steps 4. Check for continuity either at design or implementation 5. Troubleshoot outside of code, debug inside code. Either way, I would consider not going down a road you do not want. I'm sure a masters degree in engineering looks good, but what does your heart desire? (Ecclesiastes 2:24)

      Pharmacy is not that useful anymore.

The money you get usually depends mostly on your research and specialization. Biotech is doing great right now, molecular biology and biochem are always great options and there is always the MBA route after doing a bio bachelors with a business minor or double major. The end goal is usually getting into management because scientists can only make so much unless you have a great idea or discovery.

    I think it's a bit oversimplified to say that "the combination of math and economics is econometrics".
    Econometrics is essentially a field of statistics that focus on inferring causal effects without being able to make specific experiments. All economics students are taught this (unless you are in a really bad program), though some specialize in it more than others. Sometimes it is a degree in it's own right, though usually only at the masters level.
    Mathematical economics is often a seperate major/path, and while you can specialize in statistics/econometrics, you can also specialize in lots of other things, such as axiomatic microtheory, finance, or even some math intensive macroeconomics.

      In MIS youll have to take up to calculus 1. So the math is not hard.
      In addition, the math you’ll take will be in your accounting, finance and econ classes you gotta take in MIS. Thats the business acumen.
      Then on the tech side, generally you’ll learn python, SQL and in some cases Java depending on the school.
      You’ll learn database architecture, systems modeling and design, data analytics and computer networks.
