<p>I want to work in nanotechnology.</p>
<p>1) is it better to finish my chemistry degree (3 yrs left)</p>
<p>2) or switch to an IT program for 2 years. </p>
<p>degree route - learn more background knowledge of molecules etc.</p>
<p>IT route - learn more hands on with the machines in lab</p>
<p>think pay will be the same after a few years? job tasks?</p>
<p>also if i do the degree route i can double major in geology the same amount of time so if i don’t like lab work I have another career i can go into without going back to school. help me decide please I’m stressing out.</p>
<p>I would stick with chemistry or maybe one of the engineering - chemical or material science. You don’t need to change your major if you want to go the “IT route.” Just take some CS courses. </p>
<p>Why would you want to major in geology?</p>
<p>well, engineering is out of the question, I didnt make the GPA cut off. 
i thinking geology cause its something different, so if i dont like working in a lab I have another career choice without having to go back to school. and I’m better at classes where i memorize stuff instead of calculating stuff, but i like those (calculating classes, like chemistry) better. not sure why I’m not doing so well?! i dunno</p>
<p>The tech route is at a different school so i wouldnt just be taking extra classes, i’m in a different program. these courses from the tech program do not transfer to the university, but chances are i’ll get a job quicker i dont know.</p>
