<p>Hey everyone! I am a community college student and would like to get at least a BA/BS in on of these fields. The reason I am here today is that I like these three subjects the most of what I have studied at college. Is there a field that can have all or some of these fields that I could be interested in? For computer programming I know a bit of C++, Know BASIC, and teaching myself SQL. Biology I am interested in Molecular biology and evolution. Also for Anthropology I like human evolution and the cultural aspects like religion (Norse Mythology is my I the rest at this moment). I am just trying to get an idea on what field of work and major I can get with my academia interest. </p>
<p>If you want a job, go with computer science. You can always read books to satisfy your interest in anthropology and biology.</p>
<p>Ah yes, you are a bioinformatician.</p>
<p>Are there good fields in bioinformatics? The only issue I have is that I have not reach the math skills to succeed in bioinformatics.</p>
<p>Geo1113 - I would do but I do not like working in cubicals. I rather work in a lab with a team. Thank you though for the advice.</p>
<p>Are you interested in field work or working in a lab? Either way, if you’re ultimately interested in working in academia, you’re likely looking at graduate school, probably to the PhD level. Try to get involved in research as early as possible to see if it’s the right fit for you, either after you transfer or now if you are near any research universities or other research groups. Research is very different to actually do than to just read about, and graduate school is very different than undergraduate school. Get some exposure to both, and see if it’s a path that you’d like to go down. At whatever schools you want to transfer to, look through the faculty research interests or lab pages to get an idea of what they’re doing, and try to get involved in projects that interest you.</p>
<p>Thank you for the reply, I will look into it</p>
<p>Bioinformatics/statistics seems like a good choice for you. You don’t need to major in biology to become a biostatistician or anything like that either.</p>
