  1. That sounds great !! Good luck !
  2. arf09, would you mind me asking which schools you have in mind ?
  3. Ah ! Thanks !! But are there any for MPH ? The SOPHAS website shows the deadlines for MPH and MHA have passed :-(
  4. Are there any public health schools still accepting applications ???

  6. http://www.nextscientist.com/job-in-industry-after-your-phd/ and posts like these don't make me feel good about future at all !
  7. Okay ! So here is the deal. I love studying biology, especially genetics, immunology, oncology and everything related to gene expression ! But I am not sure if I am wired for research. If it was on me, I'd remain a student my entire life and keep studying and learning more about these topics. Unfortunately, I gotta pay bills. Now I am in a fix if I should do research, or switch to industry and do something not so research based (I have no clue what exactly). And after spending 6 years working on Molecular biology it is getting really hard for me to blaze another trail for myself.
  8. Hey MidwesternAloha ! Thanks for the prompt reply. I think reaching a stage of not having to be in the lab much can take a very long time in academia. I could be wrong too but that's what I have mostly seen. What kind of work is usually available in industries ? Does anybody know of any good industrial phD programs ?
  9. I recently finished my masters in Molecular Biology and I am trying to make up my mind between starting a phD or switching gears and joining Industry. I want to eventually leave academia and either join industry or do consulting even after phD but I see all sorts of concerns online, like getting a job after phD is more difficult because you're over qualified in a super narrow field of study. Also, if one thinks of making the switch this early how does one go about doing it ? All sorts of suggestions are welcome, I am really need to make a decision asap !
