What can science lead you to?
akira88:
Wow I was going to make a thread exactly like this one, but now I don't have to, haha.
What career prospects could a masters in science get you? In fact, are there any career options besides being a researcher/lecturer?
Russ:
There are a lot of options, researcher/academic are just the big two.
If you look at UoM's masters site, check the different options for an idea of what each one offers you (it'll be pretty similar for any other uni)

yesssss...though still not sure what course(if any) to do after haha
ah well, science is really broad anyway i'm sure it's normal for many science students to not be entirely sure what they want to do in the beginning of their degree.
medical research sounds appealing though can't really comment too much on that at this stage.
