>science degrees
>besides CS
Not including CS is implied in the phrase science degrees

>>11730410
Being a science is implied in the word computer science

>>11730473
So is social science yet it's just a big fucking nothing.

>>11730358
pajeet web shit

>>11730511
You know Im talking about STEM

>>11730513
Do you have a better option? I dont want to spend years of my life trapped in the same city like a wagie in a cagie

Not really man. Work is easy as shit, so you get lots of free time and it's easy to freelance. Not a fulfilling career but you can use that free time to travel n shit.

One of the big 4 in engineering
>Mechanical
>Electrical
>Civil
>Chemical

Every functioning society needs all four of those to thrive. They also let you specialize because they're so generic. An aerospace engineer is stuck in one industry and if you find out you hate it good luck. A mechanical engineer can work on anything that has physical parts (everything). If you really want to specialize into something like aerospace get a bachelor's in mechanical and then your masters in aerospace

Yet, its difficult to work on different countries. If I graduate in one of these in Latin America, Im pretty much trapped in this continent. I really cant find something universal that gives you this level of freedom like CS.

What work are you talking about?

pajeet web shit - front end, back end, web dev.

> mechanical engineer can work on anything that has physical parts (everything).
this'd be great if mechE wasn't the most oversaturated entry level engineering fields with not enough job growth to handle the new grads. Seriously, they're still having recruiters sell old stats on employability, but the fact is that most engineering grads go into fields of finance and software than their own engineering fields just the lack of availability.

So yes, engineering students have employability, but funnily enough it's for other fields they typically try and shit on

don't ever get into CS
if you don't have at least 3 years of experience now there's no way you can get a job if you don't have any connections because of oversaturation
just look at all these bloggers complaining about sending out 1000s of resumees and not getting a single call
anyone can learn programming in a week
and it's only gonna get worse

As a chemical engineer the only remote work I ever didwas low paid freelancer software dev during gradschool. Now I'm researcher raking a good salary while working from home, but that's due to the coro meme.7

I dont see how software and big data could stop growing, anon. At least give a good argument.

>>11730713
Changing the subject a bit, what are some interesting careers if you want to work on cool researches like those guys from NASA in Antarctica?

>I dont see how software and big data could stop growing, anon. At least give a good argument.
code monkeys get pumped out 10 times faster than the demand is growing and the jobs require skills attainable over a weekend

>>11730600
Get an American degree. If you have to get into a community college and transfer to a 4 year university

>>11730746
Second poster here, but would also like to comment that yes software and data is here to stay.

Also a lot of the high paid jobs are reserved for engineers with a special skill, but there is high paid low skill paths too.

I don't know about NASA, but they asked me to apply to a 6 month position to an Antarctic base once. Even if I got it I don't think I would've gone. Only do it if you don't have any relationships etc.

So again, not CS
