What is the best career for me?

Question

I have always enjoyed solving math problems. Science, however, did not really interest me a whole lot. Communicating with people is one of my weaker qualities. I am pretty good with computers, but would not like to work solely on a computer for my career. Is a type of engineering the best choice for me? Or perhaps something that uses only math is a better choice? Please leave your input. Thank you.

Answer 1

A good choice for you could be the area of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) in engineering or medical science. Try searching in the net about careers in this field.

Answer 2

I think you will be better in a career that involves math because you enjoy doing it. I mean don't go for engineering or any other career if you don't like or enjoy doing what you are supposed to do because once you complete your career you will be doing that your entire life, so go for what you enjoy doing rather than for the one that make the most money or what is considered a better career. Hope this advice helps you and good luck on deciding.

Answer 3

OK. that IS a hard pick. But mostly you like math. which science and enigineering has math in it. If your not very good at communicatign with people, then teaching isnt the choice...maybe you could be an engineer. who works with tons of stuff. Try looking up cambell scientific. (i think thats how u spell it) Its a great job, I know alot of people who work there and they really enjoy there job! But at cambell scientific theres tons of different choices for jobs and different things to do. Well hope i helped!

Most states have Job Centers or Employment Security Commissions where you can go take an Interest Inventory Test for free. It will really help you narrow down what your interests and strengths are. It will then give you a list of all the jobs that fall into those categories. Most Job Centers can also assist you with doing market research to see what the job market is like in your area for the jobs that you are interested in.

Answer 5

Engineering is a great direction to head. It is purely mathematical and depending on which field you enter (and there are MANY), you WILL work on computers.

You can get involved with Mechanical Engineering and end up in designing cars, Civil Engineering designing and testing bridges, Aeronautical Engineering testing and creating airplane design, Electrical Engineering creating complicated electrical systems in skyscrapers, or even Chemical Engineering figuring out the oil industry's complex systems.

Simply going to school as undeclared Engineering, you will quickly find what you are looking to do, and YES I would recommend graduate school after undergraduate school- you can almost double your salary with those 2-3 extra years.

GOOD LUCK!

Answer 6

If you like math but aren't thrilled about people go into aeronautics. That is a challenge with the practical math, not this theoretical stuff. Then you can get into anything with planes, including flying. From just the little description you gave, I am really discerning this would be very good for you

Answer 7

How about being an accountant or doing research for a professor. There are several types of engineering you can pursue. I would suggest checking out engineering societys to see what fits.

Answer 8

Computer programming would probably be a good choice for you. Lots of problem solving.

Answer 9

Go with what makes you happy. Or what you think you can still enjoy while still supporting you and your family with money. Don't get a job with long hours even if it pays alot. It would seem less enjoyable and you will get to spend less time with your friends and family.

Answer 10

maybe a math teacher? or some type of engineer???
