<p>Well if the list is in order of preference I would say to go by the number one. But if you like comp sci, business, and government you can become a patent attorney. A patent attorney reviews and litigates patents of a certain science there are biotech, chemistry, and electrical (comp sci) patents issued and there are attorneys who handle these cases of patent infringement when one corporation accuses another of stealing a technology. On another note the pay for a comp sci patent attorney from a good law school is WAY better than a computer programmer. Like 160K FIRST year out of law school, but alot of hours, but it only takes three more years of school past undergrad.
It is a good career bc it combines history and government (got to know the laws), but also business (bc you are handling business transactions for large companies), and also comp sci. So look into it.</p>
<p>I wish I could a Professor of Astrophysics at Cal-tech that happens to be the CEO of a large technology company that engineers stuff all while trying to find a cure for cancer.On top of all this, I am the chief adviser to the President and the CIA.</p>
<p>But you can only get so many degree and there are only so many hours in a week.</p>
<p>im in the exact same boat as you. same interests. i was looking for a job that I thought would be the most meaningful that would have the greatest effect and that I could do to benefit the world the most. look into government jobs. every major government organization needs computer professionals. and each of these are extremely important.</p>
<p>Go into computer engineering, electrical engineering, or mechanical engineering. You could always get into business without a business degree, and this probably applies to the social science majors also. With the physics/astrophysics, engineering is more marketable and you still learn physics along the way.</p>
<p>Here are some questions to think about:</p>
<p>Which do you prefer?</p>
<p>Bio, or physics?
Math/science or social science?</p>
