What College Degree?

Are post-graduate degrees included or just bachelor's?

Good question well I already got the college degree I dont think I could get another one as it was hard slog. Mine was in librarianship.

What Ive done with it, well loads of things but as for the proper paying job at an established library it hasnt helped in that respect lol.

I find I had to create my own branch so Im pretty free to do that anywhere. Just nobody pays me to do it. I do book evangelism and set up church libraries.

I've always wanted Chemical Engineering.

Quite many of the things I'm tinkering with is begging for a degree in Chemical Engineering.

If you could obtain any college degree in the world what would you get and what would you do with it?

I myself would like to get a degree in Outdoor Leadership Studies and use it to start outdoor studies at Churches. We need to get outdoors more to be a healthier society.

I will never get this degree because as we speak I have somebody at the local sheriffs department watching what I am doing on here and when they found out I was wanting to take this degree program they contacted the school to see if I was going there and have ruined any experience I as a free man may have and they do it out of hate not because I have done anything wrong within a time period that they can prosecute me.

I will probable get on online degree from some other college instead.

What do you want to get and what will you do with it.

I would get the one I'm ~14 months away from graduating with: BA in Media Arts. That's what I can use to help change the world.

For creating a very strong electric field in one project relating to a next generation of spacecraft propulsion technology that uses electricity and nothing else unlike electric ion engines that still require a supply of gas.

Three things could create incredibly strong electric fields, confinement with powerful magnetic fields or using special dielectrics or nanotechnology. The development path with the last two would produce a much simpler engine but would require a strong background in chemical engineering.

Another project is relating to the next generation of thermoelectric converters that works simultaneously as energy converter and airconditioner. Most of the literature I'm dealing with that one is applied quantum mechanics in the field of chemical engineering. The initial concept is too complicated to build and still trying to make it simpler.

Would have been a bit easier if Chemical Engineering is actually my degree but no matter. Most of it are experiments, very little math is involved until we actually reach production stage then, we'll hire real engineers to do it.

I used to work in an engineering library. I was always fascinated with the books engineers took out to study with, they were so fat and indecipherable for me to read.

In our faculty we had chemical engineering, mechanical, electrical, civil and computer. Or maybe computer was with electrical, I cant remember it was several years ago. That was the first library job I had.

My brother did mechanical engineering, but I never saw him at the library. Lol.

I did read up on some basic quantum mechanics but ive forgotten most of it now.
We were encouraged to read New Scientist all the time although we had journals (electronic) that were more technical.
I also catalogued standards.

In librarians college do you have to tale a class on how to be quiet in the library? Do you have to take a class on how to shush loud people without disturbing others?

No, but I did do a management paper on how to boss other library workers around.

Most of what I deal with is the macroscopic effect of QM which can easily be modeled by classical science anyway.

Things are not as complicated as you see in those books or journals

Meet Conan the Librarian!

They make out things to be more complicated than they really are in those journals.
Its because of peer review. Lol

Also book publishers like their books to be fat.

Are we just talking about a piece of paper that makes me money (assuming I would have its requisite knowledge), or a field that I actually would be interested in studying?

The field you are interested in studying. There is no piece of paper that makes you money unless its a winning lotto ticket.

I'm in the process of obtaining a computer science degree

I'm pursuing pretty much the only degree I can see myself with right now: a form of engineering.
If I go on to get a master's, I want it to be completely unrelated. Probably writing or something. Writing lab reports is one of my favorite things so that would be useful. I guess.
I could go on a rant about how even though I'm in a major I really enjoy, the things associated with actually having a career as an engineer are unappealing to me and I therefore have no idea what I really want to do with my life, but that's for another time
