Depends on your location.  Of course anything in the medical/pharmaceutical field is always going to be in demand.  Check out your classifieds in the Houston newpaper.  They might give you an idea of salary.

Really depends on which state.  My sister graduated last year, and she is making 56,000.00 at a local community pharmacy.  But you can make much more in a hospital or chain store

lunarob is a dirty tampon string.\n\nI have a MPH degree. I'm am epidemiologist. I like my job and I get paid okay (public health is not a money-making profession).\n\nMy classmates have gotten jobs with non-profits, state and local health agencies, law enforcement, hospitals and research institutes. If you study epi/biostat, you are marketable to pharmaceutical companies. They pay the best. You can run clinical trials and analyze data. I didn't wanna go into biotech. I wanted to do outbreak investigation, so I took a job with my local health dept. Bioterrorism is the hot topic right now. I have a friend who specilizes in BT and he's training to become Jack Bauer. Pretty cool job.

For acadamia, you typically start out with a postdoc position for a year or two.  The pay for these is low, 20k-30k/yr or so.  Then you have to get on as adjunct faculty or assistant professor.  Pay for this can be a bit higher, 40's range for state schools and much higher for private institutions.  Then after so many years you apply for tenure, and the pay goes up from there.  It really depends on the school.  \n\nMost major universities have a genetics department.  This info will be on the school's website under the departments directory.  Health Science Centers and med schools can get even more specialized within genetics.\n\nYou also might want to consider private industry, which offers better pay and benefits off the bat, sometimes even as a postdoc.  Merck, Pfizer, Novartis and all the other pharmeceutical companies are always looking for people.  You could also try a lab supply company like NEB.\n\nFinally, there are government jobs.  I know personally that the Air Force has a biodefense department that routinely hires postdocs to eventually become PI's.  The pay is okay but the benefits are pretty good and they get all the government holidays off.

Here is a good website that provides information on MEDICAL BILLING/CLAIMS EXAMINING/PATIENT ACCOUNTING :\n\nhttp://healthcarejobs.org/updts.htm\n\nThe article on the website covers:\nIntroduction \nOccupation List \nNature of Work \nWorking Condition \nJob Outlook & Employment \nTraining & Other Qualifications \nEarnings \nResources \n\nEARNINGS\nThese fields have a wage range between $8-$10 an hour to start and up to $30-$40 an hour for years of experience and responsibility.\n_____________-\n\nI had a friend who was interested in Medical billing and coding. The schooling was several thousand dollars US and the jobs in the area were paying only $8 per hour.  She went into another career field that paid more.\nI have heard it is one of the hot jobs, or in demand jobs.\n\nI hope you get many replys to your question.

Contact your local medical examiner's office. They may let you watch if you show an interest in the profession. It's an awesome experience. I worked in a funeral home for 8 years & loved it!

Careers with a high technology component require money: 1) get the latest equipment and, 2) get the proper technical skills to use it.\n\nWill you be paying the costs of such technology? are you financially stable to do so? if not, do you know where to get financial aid? what are the conditions of the financial institution?\n\nAnd of course, have you thought about the market? do you know any other optometrist? how fierce is the competition in your area? how well are they doing?\n\nI can only give you insight on money and related, i'm not familiar with the field, but my sister is a dentist and had problems with all the above. I hope i've helped

In a retail pharmacy, not much more than minumum wage.  In a hospital, in this area (Kentucky) I've worked as a pharmacy tech for almost 15 years and I only make $15/hour.  It's a fun job (in the hospital), but you're never going to get rich doing it.   Plus, you have to work weekends and holidays.  People always get sick.

I LOVE my job!!! I am Director of Nursing in a nursing home and have worked with the elderly for over 25 years. Right now nurses are in demand and wages are higher than ever. In my state, they have enacted a law where if you go to school in Iowa and continue to work for a period of time, they pay a lot of the school costs. It is well worth it. There are a ton of different areas in nursing that you could work and still make a great wage. If you love people and really want to help, GO FOR IT!!!
