wine-ing Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I like the sound of my own voice, in more than one context. (I study speech, hahahaha.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to go back to grad school for something if I wanted to make a living! Ah, well it's a fantastic trajectory to be on. Good luck with your apps!

sfling Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 This will hopefully be my second round of graduate school. I loved everything about my MA program (at least in retrospect) but grew more and more discontent with the work I did afterwards. I miss the culture of learning I found in higher education! Now I know that's where I feel most at home. The obvious choice is to go back and hopefully never leave again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razan Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I'm switching fields / careers from IT to Architecture (The building kind, not computer architecture!!) and will need an M.ARCH to do that. However, more broadly I also want a design degree. I've come to find IT too mundane. I do hope that I can leverage my IT background though. My dream is to design cutting edge office spaces for start-ups and technology companies. Can't wait to have a business card says Computer Architect & (Building) Architect. Good luck to everyone! Hard to believe we'll be finding out in a matter of weeks how much our lives will be changing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sorawit Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I got into public policy field because I want to bring my science background and interests into policy making process. I also love to think about practical solutions that science couldn't satisfy me. I worked as an environmental consultant/researcher for awhile but ran into some regulations that I think didn't make sense. However, what really pushed me to pursue a PhD in public policy is my love for teaching, I really hope someday I could inspire my students to be holistic problem solvers. I kinda feel like I'm being selfish for not exploring other career choice or "get out of school and get a real job" (according to my parents), but I just know this is what I want to do.

CacheM0nster Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Childhood dream: being a scientist. I guess this is a very typical reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
