Major

[Anonymous No.8550136]

I'm a freshman right now, majoring in biology. I've discovered there's tons of people who do biology to go to medical school, and as a result, it's a very saturated degree. What are my realistic job prospects if I continue on with this? i'm interested in more than one field of science, and it's not too late
for me to change. What is my best choice financially? I just want to enjoy what I do in life, but still be able to sustain myself.

Also how soon should I start looking for internships?

Biology is barely even a science.

[Anonymous No.8550172]

if you want to work in biology as a career you're going to need at least a master's degree if not a doctorate.

some options:
>academia
research
>industry
research, lab tech, QA, sales, project management
>teaching
high school, also requires certification. uni-level teaching jobs are fucking rare and nigh impossible to get
>writing
editing papers for ESL researchers, scientific writing consultation
>journalism
start a blog i guess, or apply to a newspaper.
>law
patent law doesn't require a JD but it does require an advanced degree. soul-killing work, lots of competition from burned-the-fuck-out phds

If you really want to do biology look into a biomath degree

nigger i am a biochemist and half of what i do constitutes biological science

medicine itself is a discipline of biology with organic chemistry added in
