Some advice?

College Majors Science Majors

<p>I recently graduated with an associate of chemistry transfer degree from a local community college. I love the subject, but the past couple of months I've been really reading into the lack of work in the science-related and engineering fields. It's really disheartening since I enjoyed a lot of the lab work. As a result, I don't think I want to pursue science any more. </p>

<p>I'm 20 years old, have no debt, and I have a lot of my math covered. What would be a good major to pursue, possibly math-related that may be in demand in the foreseeable future? I want job security above all. Science seems very volatile and I am in no position to slave myself into debt and never have hope of paying it back. </p>

<p>Thanks for your time.</p>

<p>I’m somewhat biased, but Computer Science is a pretty good field to be in right now. There are a lot of good opportunities available, and the tech industry is very fast-moving. Have you tried programming before?</p>

<p>Math and statistics may be in more demand than chemistry and biology, mainly from finance type of jobs (e.g. actuarial; see [Be</a> an Actuary](<a href=“http://www.beanactuary.com%5DBe”>http://www.beanactuary.com) ).</p>

<p>Why not look at going into an engineering field. Both Chemical and Materials engineering will draw on what you’ve learned in chemistry. (Plus Polymer Engineering if it’s offered as an individual major anywhere.)</p>
