Thatβs wonderful. Iβm glad education is accessible.
Iβm going to go cry in the back corner now, because hahaβ¦ America #1β¦ in student loan debt.
The government is offering advanced degrees
You can get any graduate degree, masters or Ph.D. in whatever you want.
That's how it works in my country
It took me 6 seconds to realize OP's statement was an hypothetical.
The answer would be nothing. The best day of my life was the moment I exited my last exam room.
I want a PhD in procrastination and busywork.
You just need a bachelor's in finance or accounting, and then go work for the government.
You don't get that from school, you get that from practice. I know cause I'm a 3rd-dan black belt procrastinator.
PhD in electrical engineering. Only thing stopping me is that I can't afford it.
Physics.
Do you still need prerequisites? Not like I could do an advanced PhD in physics even if it was free.
Horticulture
Hey! When I was little, I wanted to be botanist.
If there was a course in carpentry, I would take that.
I started to learn some of that during the pandemic. With a good square, circular saw, and drill you can get started. I've gotten into building some relatively simple furniture now and am basically just using those tools still.
I have a circular saw, a miter saw, a small table saw, an oscillating saw, a square, and a drill. (Among other tools.) I've been able to learn how to install trim and flooring, replace deck boards, and build shelving.
At some point I'd love to learn how to make a bench.
Either computing science or psychology.
system analysis
Kinda need my undergrad first...
Ooo, in what?!
Dunno. I dropped out 30 years ago.
Wanted to teach high school.
