1. My plan was to complete my master's in political science and then head to law school. I wasn't necessarilly interested in being a trial lawyer, but I wanted to work as a legal researcher or legal anlyst. I just lost interest as I made my way through grad school in political science.
2. I probably should not have writter 'computational scientist.' I'm basically interested in statistical computing and visualization of large data sets.
- bendmorris 16y agoStatistics is an area where they generally take students from all fields into master's programs. The most common second master's subject among the grad students I know is statistics - in fact, half of the lab I'm in (biology) are Biology PhD/Statistics MS dual degree students, because they're interested in working with large biological datasets. You might look into that. See if you can find a stats professor that specializes in computation and large datasets.
- brudgers 16y ago>"I'm basically interested in statistical computing and visualization of large data sets." IMO, there are two paths by which you can pursue that: experience and academia. The best experience route is to continue to grow and expand your business. The best academic route is a Phd, not another bachelor's. In an important sense, they're similar because either will probably take at least 5 years. And of course there is nothing to keep you from doing both. Good luck.
