As an environmental engineer, do you feel as useful as you thought you would before you chose the career?
The reason I'd like to pursue a career in environmental science is because I am genuinely passionate about being educated about the ways in which I can improve our environment. I'm curious as to whether or not most environmental engineers fulfill this passion during their careers. #environmental-science #environment #environmental-engineering
For those interested in pursuing a career in ecology and evolutionary biology, what types of jobs are available that involve working in the field with real organisms?
I have always been very interested in biology and animals, so when I discovered the ecology and evolutionary biology major at most prestigious schools, I thought it would be perfect! However, I know that I am a very hands on learner who would prefer to be out in the environment as opposed to at a desk, so I was wondering what types of jobs would allow me to do this. #biology #animals #environment #ecology #environmental-services #evolutionary-biology #field-work #animalscience
What are some effective and progressive jobs in the environmental sustainability field?

Why is it that only a small amount of colleges have a material science major?
I live in southern California and noticed that only a small amount of colleges offer material science as a major. This confuses me not only because that's what i want to major in, but also the fact that this career can solve many environmental problems. #science #environment #materials-science #materials-engineering

It is often thought that business growth and environmental growth cannot go hand in hand. However, this is not true, it is just a topic that has been little explored yet. What background would I need to pursue in college to encourage this?
I believe that industry has a whole has the power and minds to start the clean revolution. Creating products that not only don't hurt, but are beneficial to the environment is not easy, and requires a lot of different perspectives. If I want to grow up and start businesses that not only don't hurt the environment, but nourish it as well, what background should I consider? I have thought about business, economics, law, environmental policy, environmental engineering, or a mix of a few. What skills will I need to make this dream a reality? #finance #management #social #environment #non-profit #spanish #busines

What are the steps that a virologist under goes to investigate an unknown virus?
My interest career wise is investigation. I'm less than 3 months away to start my bachelors degree in Biology and I have been thinking into what branch I'll be delving in to once I finish it. One of them is virology. I understand that this studies the deseases that viruses cause in an organism. But what exactly does the virologist do in the lab that brings him/her more knowledge about the specimen. I'm intrigued because the virus itself is dangerous due to its effects. I want a response that highlights the processes done to the virus to acquire more information about it. Thank you. #biology #chemistry #environmental-science #environment #laboratory #life-sciences #microbiology #virology

How to make a transition from fine arts to design?
Hello, I am studding plastic arts and recently I rediscovered my passion for geometry and spatial expressions, I would love to pursue a career in design rather than becoming an artist. Even though plastic and applied arts are similar disciplines to study, I worry that requirements in job market differ widely. I wonder if there is a way I could use my degree (skill-set, portfolio,) in "fine arts" to acquire either job or (master) study placement in industrial or environmental design. What are must-have skills, knowledge and experiences to qualify for the design positions without a bachelor's degree in design? Thanks in advance #art #design #architecture #environment #industrial-design
What should I major in if I want to work in a field that allows me to raise public awareness for environmental issues?
So far I have completed two years of community college credit towards a degree in Psychology. However, I am unsure about my choice to major in psychology based on the job market and amount of schooling required to get a job. Recently I began reading about environmental issues such as our overuse of plastic (that keeps being created but cannot be destroyed and is killing our coral reefs), the addition of BPA to multiple items including receipt papers (even though research believes it causes health issues), the addition of unsafe chemicals to our food, and the overconsumption of sugar in our society. I feel passionately about issues such as those listed above, and would like to work on a team of people that would try to fight big corporations, encourage people to sign petitions, and raise awareness in general for healthier eco-friendly living. #psychology #social-work #social #environmental #environment

Studied Architecture - now I don't want to work in that field. Any related fields?
Hello. I have finished a degree in Environmental Architecture. I have one month left to graduate, but I don't want to work as an architect. I realised that it is not the field for me around a year ago. However I thought it would be a waste to let go of the 3 years I finished when I am so close to graduating so I didn't switch programs. Now that I have a bachelors in Architecture, I don't want to start over again with another bachelor, what other fields of study can I pursue that are related to Architecture? #health #design #architecture #environment #bachelors #talent

I am interested in Global Climate change. What career can revolve around trying to find ways to tackle this issue?
I find global warming so interesting. I would like to find ways to find ways to give clean water to third world countries and I'm interested in food hunger and how to prevent it. I think that using cattle as one of our main food sources is so ineffective. I want a job where I can go visit these countries and find ways to improve these people lives. I would also like to help in Chinas air quality pollution, for it's terrible to see that people are dying for this reason. #environment #water #climate-change

How specialized can the field of environmental engineering be?
I am a senior in high school and wish to look into environmental engineering with a focus in aquaculture. I am looking into the process of specializing the subject of environmental engineering to aquaculture engineering but am unsure how I should go about doing this. I was wondering if this was possible or if I must study general environmental engineering and then specialize, and if so what steps I should take to do this. #environment
