What can I do with a Science degree?
Your science degree opens up many career options. To choose a career, you need to consider the extent to which you would like to use your scientific knowledge in your future career. You may choose to work in pure science, applied science, an alternative career requiring an understanding of science or use the general skills you have acquired while studying.
Also, you have gained a high level of technical ability alongside general skills which will make you more employable.
Careers for science graduates fall into three main categories:
-
Careers using your specialist science knowledge
-
Careers where an understanding of science is an advantage
-
Careers using your other skills
Those of you who have thoroughly enjoyed studying your major* at the university may like to continue to work in science. Science is a kind of an industry with new doors opening all the time. If you want to find work in a specialized area related to your major, you may find that you need more than a pass degree*. Professional scientists usually have at least an honours degree but more likely a PhD, particularly if working in research areas.
Occupations which would allow you to work with your expertise include:
Research - university academic, environmental researcher, agricultural researcher, marine scientist, biotechnologist, physicist, research scientist, laboratory research technician, etc.
Analysis and investigation - forensic investigator, IT systems analyst, statistician, clinical research associate in pharmaceutical industry, nutritionist and/or dietitian, analytical chemist, geophysical technician, etc.
Consultancy - environmental information consultant, agricultural consultant, IT
consultant, IT systems developer, information services officer, geoscientist, etc.
Quality control - environmental health officer, resource manager, toxicology consultant, water treatment consultant, quality assurance officer, etc.
Product and process development - pharmacologist, industrial chemist, product designer, etc.
Scientists are found in such industries as biotechnology, telecommunications, IT, electronic-design-automation as well as in academic institutions, hospitals, pharmaceutical and utility companies and research organizations.
The industry you choose will have an effect on the type of work you do. Many industries require the application of scientific knowledge to solve practical problems such as utilising resources, developing new products or ensuring safe use for humans.
