I am currently studying to get a degree in Interactive Media and Game Design, but would it arguably be better just to get a degree in computer science?

I'm currently studying at WPI in order to go on to become a game programmer. What is one of the hardest things about that job, whether it be a part of the job or part of actually landing it?

I am asking due to the fact the it is common that work conflicts can occur in any given situation no matter the job. Us as humans do not usually pay attention to the fact that our tone in voice or the structure of out sentences via email or verbally can have drastic impacts on our daily lives....

I’m gonna need a job immediately when I go to #college otherwise I won’t be able to pay. I emailed administration about it but never got a reply. Should I email them again? #work #career

My passion is dance its my whole life. It’s how I’m able to express myself to people without actually having to talk. I want to major in dance so much but my family says it’s unrealistic and I’ll have no future. What should I do?? #dance

My dream is to become a ceo for a company, but I’m a very quiet person and I don’t know if i will be able to have successful career in business since I don’t talk. I see shows of business people and there always giving presentations and talking in front of bigwudiences and I’m willing to try...

Where am I able to find support when I am falling behind in a class or do not understand something? I have decided to go to a larger college and I'm worried about feeling lost and alone. Will there be peer mentors or professor mentors that will be able to help guide me to make the most...

I'm used to relatively small and quiet classes. I want to know what the transition is like and how you adapted to it. Was it harder to learn in large auditoriums and was it difficult to hear and understand the professor? #college-advice #classroom #learning

They say its not what you know, but who you know...is this just a saying or is there more truth to it than I think? #networking

I'm newly returning to school after taking a few years off and completely changing my degree to finance. I'm good with numbers, but still not entirely sure which route to go after college. #finance

Taking 6-7 classes in a row in one day for high school can be a grueling task, but I have heard that most people take far fewer in college with breaks in between. What should I expect going into freshman year? #class #freshman

I am currently a high school senior anxious to get out of high school and pursue a major in finance. I have received many mixed messages regarding the workload of an average college student (which makes sense), but I would like to know more specifically what the workload would be for my major?...

Many teens struggle to decide between attending a public or a private university. Should one be valued more than the other? If so, why? Personally, I believe it depends on the major one is pursuing.

It always seems as if the most interesting and thought- provoking people that I meet are those who have traveled the world and had many experiences. Do you think traveling is essential to becoming the most educated, influential and intellectual person one can be? #travel #education #importance...

At home I have my own room and it is my safe haven. I’m an introvert. I love spending time with other people, but I need the time to recharge and take a break every day in order to keep myself going. In college I will have at least one roommate if not two or three. I’m doing my best to find a...

I’m only 18 and a senior in high school. I’m young and every day I learn more about myself and my interests, challenges, and strengths. However, this coming fall I’m going to college to pursue a degree in nursing. As much as I feel confident in this choice now, I worry that this will change....

I’m worried about getting physically lost and not knowing where I am going, and therefore being late or missing a class. How quickly do you get the hang of it? And what are some tips for learning your way around? #campuslife

Money is important. We all want to be able to live comfortably. If I get an opportunity to have a stable job with a steady income that I’m not necessarily in love with, real talk should I take it? Or try to find what makes me “happy.”
#dreamjob #moneyversushappiness

I am very committed to the close friends that I currently have, and I’m really scared about having to start all over with that. I don’t know how to start conversations with new people or how to make sure I don’t just lock myself away and not talk to anyone... tips? #friends

I’ve been very interested in Greek Mythology for a few years now, and I would love to learn more about it, but I have no idea what types of classes would teach about that sort of stuff #greekmythology

I'm asking because I cannot imagine myself in the future at the moment, so I am curious about when that feeling comes and what that feeling actually is. #success

I'm asking because I am currently undecided about my major in college and ultimately, what career I want to pursue as well. #clueless

If we are getting the same degree in different colleges, whats the point of going to a state college rather than an Ivy League college? #college #career-decisions

I put the major I would want on my application as Physics but I don't think it'll be the right major for me but I don't know what major is the right one for me.

I"m curious when a college student should start looking for internships. #internships

My degree will be a Bachelors of Music with only room for a few liberal arts classes. I hope to get advice on what courses are good to round out my knowledge. #vocalperformance

I am not sure what classes are available to me as a freshmen besides English 9.

I'm not sure exactly what I want to do with my degree when I get out of college, but I know Mechanical Engineering is the broadest of the engineering disciplines. There are other majors at my school that I could have chosen, like Robotics Engineering or Aerospace, but I don't want to limit...

I'm a junior in high school and I am interested in becoming a Dental Hygienist. I have a 3.2 GPA. I am not interested at all in going to community college because I want a bachelors degree. What colleges are there in the United States that would prepare me to go into this field and what majors...

I've taken the SAT once, during june of my Sophomore year. I am planning on taking it again, but I am not sure what time (or how many times) I should take it this year.

My latest score is in the 1300's range.

Thank you for your help,
Jeffery P

I plan to develop/improve medical devices as part of my career, but I know that people can realize it isn't a good fit when they go to college. I am a strong student in math and science, and really like technology, so is there another field that would be another option? #engineering #technology

Is there down time or is there constantly things to be done? #cyber-security

For some industries, graduate school is more important that others. I may consider taking a graduate program over the years once I finish undergraduate school. However, after undergraduate school what's the best route? #film #entertainment #film-production #movies #cinematography #film-editing

At my school, all the seniors have to do a senior project. As a Junior who is interested in majoring in film and animation, I do not know whether to make my senior project Career Exploration or a new skill. Which one would be best? A note: Students at my school have different opinions on...

Some people apply to a lot of colleges while others apply to just one. What's the difference? #college #college-admissions #applying

I am a college student. I was in a community college, doing my prerequisites for the nursing degree. I am done with most of them so I transferred to a 4 year college. I have 3 more years and I am done with BSN. I am starting the nursing classes just this fall semester. If you were giving the...

As I continue to decided what I want to do with my future career, I think of how the average work day is for each career. What are the average work hours? The average pay? The average amount of projects being worked on? etc. #computer-science #career #computer #technology #computer-engineering

It's a well known fact that colleges look for many extracurricular activities while viewing an individual's application. At my school I am involved with the drama club and due to the intense schedule of productions, whenever I have free time in the year it is at an awkward time (only December,...

I've had a dream to be a filmmaker for as long as I can remember, and make my own films whenever possible. It's no secret that getting into the business is extremely hard, and often times if you do not have the right networking or connections your dreams can quickly seem unreachable. For this...

As a computer engineer, I am very excited to learn anything and everything I can about the engineering space of computers. However, we know how difficult it is to find high end internships in our majors. Living in New York City should make it easier to find internships, but It's still difficult...
