A Bachelor's of Science in Chemistry is the minimum.  Beyond that, each field requires something different.  I am a paint and coatings chemist.  That requires organic chemistry for reactions, polymer chemistry for understanding the macromolecules being used, inorganic chemistry for pH adjustment of water-based systems, analytical chemistry for analyzing reactions and designing experiments... most of the things that the BS degree requires one to learn.  Plus some higher math skills.

It is considered a "science" degree at most schools, but the profession is a combination of both.  I would agree --more art than science.

I would say just get your degree.\n\nI've spent my entire career in the high tech sector - an area for Bachelor of Science degrees.\n\nAnd I have all my degrees in Bachelor of Arts...\n\nWhat really matters is just having a degree - from there, you can do what you want, as long as your dedicated.\n\nJust my .01\n\n-dh

There are two schools of approach for careers in geology or environmental science.  Both entail graduate school!  One is the technical root (which I took), with lots of science, including sub disciplines of geology, along with chemistry, physics, and biology.  The other is the non-technical pathway of business and sociology, which can get you nice jobs, but leaves you short when it comes time to address the sticky scientific issues (I am showing my bias here for the first root, aren't I?).  Good luck!

That is precisely the degree I have. \n\nDNR\nWastewater\nWater Quality\nForestry\nWildland fire suppression\nSurveying\nWildlife\nNRCS\nBLM- Dept of Interior\nLCD\nPrivate company environmental monitoring and planning\nFisheries\n\nThe possibilities are too numerous to post them all here. It's a fabulous degree.

Biology and life science would be good majors; here's a list of links to related occupations:\nhttp://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos076.htm\nhttp://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos183.htm\nhttp://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos168.htm\nhttp://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos176.htm\nhttp://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos168.htm\nhttp://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos047.htm

An undergraduate degree (sometimes called a first degree or simply a degree) is the most common and lowest academic degree available and is normally studied at a higher education institution, such as a university. \n\nOnce you have obtained this degree Associates, Bachalor Etc . you can go for your Graduate degree such as...Masters, PhD Etc.\n\nHope this helps.

Well, in chemistry, the difference between a BA and a BS is math courses....the BS has more.  Probably something similar in Business admin.

As an area of study it is commonly referred to as information technology management. The study of information systems is usually a commerce and business administration discipline, and frequently involves software engineering, but also distinguishes itself by concentrating on the integration of computer systems with the aims of the organization. The area of study should not be confused with computer science which is more theoretical in nature and deals mainly with software creation, or computer engineering, which focuses more on the design of computer hardware.\n\nIn business, information systems support business processes and operations, decision-making, and competitive strategies.

Electronic engineering (sometimes synonymous with Electrical engineering) is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the emission, behavior, and effects of electrons (as in electron tubes and transistors) and with electronic devices, systems or equipment.

Me - I have a bachelor of science degree, but I work as an office administrator.  My boss in Human Resources has a PhD in Chemistry - go figure!\n\nIt's more about what makes you happy and what fits into your lifestyle - it's very difficult to predict what you would like to do when you are young and in college - I would guess that a lot of people change their careers.  Also, though, any amount of education, in any field, will give you tools for learning which can be applied in any field.

Most colleges offer a BS in portapotty science.\n\nDon't go to Brown University to get it though... I hear it's kind of sh*tty.

A Bachelor's degree is usually a four to five year course of study with very few options and little room for original work. \n\nA Master's has much more flexiblity and requires more original thinking and some amount of research. The time required to complete a Master's varies with the school and the program. \n\nI went through summer sessions and finished my Bachelor's in Biological Science at Baylor in 2 1/2 years, my Master's in Applied Nuclear Science at Georgia Tech in a year and one summer semester. But that was after Viet Nam and things were easy for me then.

In electrical engineering, it's the study of electromagnetic fields which are combinations of electric and magnetic fields that propagate in transmission lines or in space. Read about "Maxwell's Equations" to get the history of field theory. It's probably the toughest subject to study and understand in electrical engineering because Maxwell's Equations use differential and integral calculus to develop field theory.

Faculty of Science.  It's an advanced degree, apparently like an M.S. in the U.S.

Physics (from the Greek, φυσικός (phusikos), "natural", and φύσις (phusis), "nature") is the science of Nature in the broadest sense. Physicists study the behavior and properties of matter in a wide variety of contexts, ranging from the sub-nuclear particles from which all ordinary matter is made (particle physics) to the behavior of the material Universe as a whole (cosmology).
