In the field of environmental science, how relevant will a Ph.D or Master's degree be?

I just finished my undergraduate career and will be entering into a Master's program this fall (2016). I am attempting to figure out whether a Master's degree is sufficient to begin a career or if it would be better to persue a Ph.D immediately after the graduate program. I know it's a little...

Is having a very specific career goal putting to many limitations on my future?

Becoming a video game developer is all I've ever wanted to be. I'm concerned that being so specific will limit my options down the road. Should that not pan out, I worry about what other careers will I be qualified for. I want to have something to fall back on. #career-path #guidance-counselor...

I am debating on whether to study teaching or psychology. I know that if I put my mind to it I can do which ever one, but how can I come to a conclusion on which major to focus on when I love helping others?

If you could only choose between pursuing a career that has a high salary, or pursuing a career that you always wanted to, which one should you choose and why?

I'm still deciding my major. My parents want me to select a major that would help me acquire a high paying job, however the major I want to go into is not that high paying. #financial-planning #personal-development
