Germany started abandoning the Diplom in favour of BA/MA, which caused a lot of trouble and I heard Americans aren’t too happy with BA/MA either.

See our semester started in the fall and we got a few breaks then it ends Dec. 18th for the Christmas/New years season. Our spring semester starts on Jan. 14th and goes til early may, not sure on the exact date. We'll get one break and a few holidays for that semester. edit: then there is summer break for 3 months!

Wow, good for him. I'd love to be working in that sort of position. I'm currently doing a BSc in Psychology - will then move onto a masters in Psychology within a few years. I have a little bit of flexibility in the work I'm doing for the BSc, I can go down a neuroscience route within the degree itself. There's a few units on brain functions which I'm looking forward to learning about.

I've never seen so much work, apparently this term (first one) is the worst one but I'm barely staying on top of it. I have some short answer exams next week and a lot of coursework due before christmas. I'm pretty sure I'm going to fuck up one of the exams or one of the essays because I don't have time. Then main exams at the end of January. I'm banking on the three weeks christmas holiday to get myself together. I'm losing my mind over a metabolism lab report at the moment, got so much data in front of me I can't even remember what any of it means if I look away from the screen for more than a second. I'm trying to use statistics software that I don't understand and this new version of excel is making me want to cut my cock off. FUCK EDUCATION dude im almost in the exact same boat, different subject. right now im wrapping up the Historical Method course, which apparently is by far the hardest one in the program, by the time im done in a few hours i will have written about a 90 page paper....horrible Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide SR4's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/51404-college/page/2/#findComment-1185163 Share on other sites More sharing options...

What were you doing the first three years? Anything to do with climate change? geology, geophysics, stratigraphy, sedimentology, bit of geochemistry, petrogenesis, land surveying, blah blah. did a fair bit of climate stuff with the sedimentology, since rocks tell you what the climate was like innit. but done sod all Global Warming-esque stuff if that's what you mean. that's far too recent to be of interest to a geologist :P Edited December 11, 2009 by ezkerraldean Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/51404-college/page/2/#findComment-1185240 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, that human factors stuff is tres cool. I was in an Industrial/Organizational Psychology Masters program once and we dealt a lot with how human engineering can fight errors and maximize performance in a class called "Occupational Health." Well, now we know that in a few years, you will be constructing "smart tentacles" that are ergonomically engineered to various orifices.
