You might try IOSCAR; it's free.  It asks you questions and suggests occupations based on your interests, knowledge, skills, and abilities.  It also has a lot of information on opportunities in different occupations.

Biotech is an interdisciplinary field. After doing B.Tech you can do masters, Phd & research in a specialised field, get a job in a biopharmaceutical company or you can do a course in clinical research. If you do not like research you can do MBA after B.Tech and work as an MBA, maybe even in a biotech company. There are courses available for Biotech - MBA as well. As for Biotech you should be sure about what exactly you want to do since the courseware of biotech may overlap with many other courses such as Bioengineering, Biological Sciences, etc.

I would go with computing business coz this major will give you skills in computer and business administration and Management.  You need to realise the increasing intensity of competition with global markets has created an environmental where management is now seen as a crucial factor of competitive advantage.  The role of management is moving towards strategy not only in the implementation but also in the formulation.  But technology is not changing on a daily basis.  So in order to survive the employment sector, you will need skills in computer and business.

Right now, there is a great demand for both, but it depends on what you like and excel at doing.  Bio tech has a history of being a more volatile career setting, but can be very rewarding.  Pharm cannot be outsourced and jobs are and will continue to be plentiful.  What do you like to do the most, research or medicine?  The hospital I work at has a program that allows students to "shadow" the pharmacist to get a better idea of what the job really in-tells.

It seems to me that the best return on investment would be Physical Therapy.  The need for physical therapists would seem to grow as the population ages.  \nBiomedical engineering may offer a higher reward but the possibility of continued employment is lower. \nComputer science may be offshored and is somewhat stagnant right now. \n\nThe personal service professions -PT, nursing, medicine cannot be de-localized so positions will always be available where ever you may move.

MBA is best. But you can also go for physics. its interesting. i also have physcis.

I am an entering freshman at Temple University. My major is biomedical engineering (aka bioengineering). I am setting a plan on attending Medical School after completing 4 years of engineering. Biomedical engineering is a 4 year degree, and is an excellent pre-med major. Med schools and optometry love engineering majors.\nUT (Austin) offers a wonderfull program in biomedical engineering. They have a 4 year undergrad program as well as the graduate program.\nI wound highly recommend attending UT.

If u r ready to study for 10 years then go for MBBS..\n5yrs MBBS + 3yrs MD + 2yrs PG..\n\nIf not then go for Engineering.As u r interested in computers,take computers in Engg.Nowadays Its booming..After completion of 4yrs Engg u can start working..Its also a promising career as u want..\n\nIn Engineering,if u want u can also take Aeronautical Engg.. \n\nOr after Engg, if u do MBA for 2yrs then u will have a golden future..But choosing university for MBA is most important.Go for MBA through GMAT or CAT..\n\nIf u dont wanna do Engg then go for Commerce degree,and after that go for CA..Or after degree again u can go for MBA..\n\nAt last What i suggest u is go for Engg and then MBA..\nAll The Best..

It depemds on what you have taken. If you have taken biology try medicine or biotech. If you have taken computer science try doing that . Engineering is always an option.

Pleeeeease don't major in something and the think or hope you'll be able to find a career using that particular degree.  Instead give it some thought as to exactly what you want to do and then get a degree that will help you get there.  The days of employers throwing themselves at you just because you have a degree are over.\nBUT....to answer your ?.  Since those degree's are not related and your not going to have much "over-lapping" in courses except for your basic maths, English, history, etc....you'll probably have to get 2 degrees, and not just a double major. C/J isn't that bad.  Biology is pretty difficult.  Lots of Math, Bio, and Chem.  Biology is one of those degrees similar to Psychology that you cannot do much with unless you get your PHD.\nIf I were you I'd consider something in the Engineering fields.  Preferably Chemical Engineering first, and then electrical.  We hire lots of C/E's where I work and they start off in the 50 K a yr range which ain't a bad starting point.

i thing u should choose medical or engineering

You will need to look inward to guide yourself but here is something to consider.\n\nI am a mechanical engineer with a BS degree.  I was promoted to Project Management.  Technically, I should have an MBA for this job but my experience has helped me get to this level.  My peers who are not in management has upkept and increased their technical knowledge and also does quite well with their career and compensation ($$$).  They are also at lower stress level as well as they are responsible for smaller aspect of a large program.\n\nI find myself making more money but under more stress as I am responsible for whole programs, for direct report's performance so, i think I am not as happy as i could be if I would have stayed the technical course.\n\nI am basically a technical hands on guy.  and have missed that type of excitment.  Well, currently, I am making better money and to satisfy my hands on needs, I now build electrically assisted bikes/trikes and other neat projects on my own time for enjoyment and also to teach my 7 years old son on how things work in the real world.\n\n\nSo, do you see yourself wanting to be that irreplacable technical guru or do you see your self as a manager of technical people, resources with a technical background?\n\nI don't see one as being better than the other.  The main thing is to be happy so choose wisely.\n\nI hope that helped you.

For most jobs, having more applicable degrees will definitely help earnings.  You should look at job openings in your field and find what the minimum requirements are for jobs in health care management.  Having more than the minimum requirements will give you a better chance of getting the job and potentially increase your starting pay.

if your a logistical person, good at organising things but not so keen on disciplining other go for higher management. Strangely the psychological requirements for being a good upper level manager is the same as nursing. Problem solving and looking after about 15 things.\n\nlower level management is more people skills, less problem skills.\n\nTechnology?  hmm, if you like designing things and have a good imagination, so so on the maths go for industrial design or architecture.\n\nIndustrial designers do what i imagined engineers did\nengineers do lower level management

Well, if you mean which one is the best overall (not best for you) then i'd have to say Aerospace Engineering. Aerospace is the hardest degree to earn imao and covers so many areas of study in engineering that most Aerospace Engineers become "systems engineers" because of their broad base of information. Systems engineers control and oversee groups of people working on a project and ensure that everyone's ideas and subsystems create the desired product. Therefore these people are usually management level of some sort.\n\nSecondly, the job demand for Aerospace engineers has shot out the roof lately, with large government contracts being created at Lockheed Martin, Boeing's latest return to market domination, and the immenent retire of many aging Aerospace Engineers the market is great for any undergrad in Aerospace. Lastly it pays really well and you get to call yourself a rocket scientist.

Well, the choice is entirely up to you. What are you interested in?\n\nWould you like to pursue a career in medical sciences? choose biotech, it's a rising career.\n\nElectronics and mechanics are pretty old players of the block. You get into these through a good college, say IIT, or DCE, then you are bound to reach a rewarding place.\n\nBut the question really is - what interests you? \nBecause if you're just gonna do something just for the sake of doing it, then it wont work. because you're not gonna like it.\n\nFind out what you really want to do, and who you want to be for the rest of your life.

Engineering and management.  That's what I do.  And try to take courses in business and project management and systems architecture.  These are some of the things that companies are looking for.  They will make you more marketable and increase your earning ability.
