College Plans...

[MilitantB0B]

I figured since most of the people of this forum are probably high school age, like myself, I would start a thread for everyone�s college plans.


I have been giving thought to what I want to do for college/rest of my life and I have come to the conclusion that I want to work in the video game industry. I have researched it quite well and decided I am going to get one of those specialty degrees built for the video game industry, then get a Masters in something traditional, like computer sciences or programming or whatever. That way, if I don't get into the video game industry, I won't be homeless and sad. The only thing I don't know is who is considered to have a good video game school (aside from obvious choice like digipen that are incredibly competitive). If anybody knows, I would certainly like to share in the knowledge...

So that is it for me, what is everybody else college plans?

Engineering degree...comp engineer.

Possibly look into programming...I dunno.

I plan on going to ucla for Computer Science(a.k.a. programming and lots of other cool stuff )

I'm attending Cal Poly (SLO), studying English and getting my Technical Communication Certificate so I can keep working with those engineering sweeties as a tech writer. It'll bring in good money, and I can do contract work, which means flexible hours for family life. And it will allow me to do my creative writing on the side!

Ahh, I'm glad college is almost over. I'm graduating Spring or Fall 2005, depending on my internship.

Bachelor of Arts.


Then proceed to bitchown the Game Journalism field.

I plan on begging.

I'm currently attending the University of Dayton and am studying to be a civil engineer, focusing on structures. After that I'm probably going to go to architecture school.
IMO you would be better off going for computer engineering rather than computer science, but its up too you.

[Smaug]

well technically the course is called computer science & engineering, so its all good

Whatever floats your boat

[FlakMan]

I'm planning on going to a local community college for two years and get an Associate's Degree in computer graphics. I'm gonna talk about what happens after that with my counseler in the next week or so.

I have no idea other than i want to desine things, something to do with computer chips, or weapons desine, or meterials, you now making things like teflon, and balistic ceramics.

[Everay]

thinking of West Point, its my goal, but im too young right now to start my plan to get in, IE take the ACT and SAT. i have to wait a while, because im still not close to being done with HS, and the info that i still need to learn.

[SkunkPunk]

I want to get into alchemy/chemistry. But ultimately I want to be a part of the Canadian Special Ops(Yes we have them) I believe they call themselves red(?) berets. But in the end I think Im going to end up with a career in aggressive rollerblading. And if all the above fail - Drug dealer.

[Dharkbayne]

Is there a passive/neutral rollerblading?


Whenver I think of "aggressive rollerblading" I picture a bunch of dudes going GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR while riding on rollerblades.
