I applied to University for Marine Biology, but I'm wondering if it was a good decision.
As I do want to work with the the protection and the study of animals. I've always been wanting a career that allows me to study and protect our world and its inhabitants. I decided to focus on the marine life, as water is our main resource for life... many more reasons why...anyways;
For the Marine Biology program, it would be more focused and I would have good internship field program options with my studies.
However, with zoology, it is not focused on the marine life specifically, which is fine. But, it also seems like it might be easier to obtain a job after school.
Not really too sure, on what a zoologist could do, how much easier/harder it would be to get a job, etc.
The program I applied to is a general science first year. So, when accepted, I believe I can still make the switch to a different university or choose another major instead of it being so specific on the marine.
I also have the option to do a double major or a major/minor with Earth Sciences, which would be awesome.
