I appreciate the video and do agree with some of things as a Neuroscience Major. However, the idea of " what degree to avoid" is quite disturbing. If everyone becomes a CompSci major, an Engineer, or a Business major, then we probably won't be able to function as a society. We need people with different skill sets to perform different functions.

I know neuroscience isn’t the best degree, but I’d also like to mention that Harvard has a 3 part neuroscience class online for free (pretty sure it’s free anyway). So if neuroscience is really interesting to you, I’d recommend looking that up

[dustinmchalffey]

The problem with niche degrees like neuroscience is that they produce jobs that are not as well known, and therefore hard to find data for when doing an analysis like this. I have a BS and MS in neuroscience (never needed the MS tbh) and happen to have found a great career doing neuromonitoring during neurosurgery, but it's hard for outside observers to know that really well paying jobs like neuromonitoring exist. Additionally, I think any job that requires a bio degree can be filled by a neuroscience grad, as well as not-so-science related jobs like statistical analysis since those skills are learned by neuroscience grads too.

Nothing (except from computers) is a viable career option according to you. That is depressing.

[thor]

To be honest, I don't think they'll be many people doing a Neuroscience degree expecting that to be it. Further study in this field goes without saying.

[somethingnew]

Every goddamn time I look for a major I am interested in I always see this goddamn channel oh my god

[bwhit]

I knew someone that had a PhD in neuroscience. This caused him to learn a lot of useful data analysis skills. This segued into a great career in Silicon Valley. Obviously a major and a PhD are very different, but the basic principle still stands.

Your girl will be studying for 15 years 😗✌️✨

I'm about to start my senior year of college at Columbia University finishing up my BoS in Neuroscience & Behavior and this video just reminds me on all that I have left to do and definitely helped me lean towards what path I should take going forward a year from now. Thanks :).

[yeukleicheung]

You don't study to get a career, you study for the knowledge and a degree just a certification of your hard work.

[angelusvastator]

You've answered my prayers. Yes Shane! Also, I'm interested on whether dual majoring in neuro and marketing would be a great idea. Planning on doing this in case my med school dreams flop.

[neurosciencegirl]

I am studying Neuroscience at Kent State university. I am planning on going to graduate school to get my PhD because I want to be a professor and be a principal investigator of my own laboratory. I will be applying to graduate school this year. I graduate next spring in 2022. The good thing about my graduate program that I want to apply to is that I get a stipend and a tuition waiver. I just have to be a teacher’s assistant or a laboratory assistant to do this. Everyone who is accepted into the program gets this benefit. So I will not be paying the university for tuition. I will also get good experience as a teacher’s assistant. I will be teaching a undergraduate biology lab. That will be good hands on experience for wanting to be a professor someday. Also as a PhD student I get to do research with a faculty member in my biomedical sciences department. I already have a faculty member because I am currently doing research for him on my undergraduate degree.

I think one point that could have been focussed on more is the competitiveness. I'm not sure about the US but in the UK neuroscience specific internships/grad schemes/grad jobs in neuroscience with a bachelor's degree are pretty scarce and as a result very competitive.

[samanthalouisecastro]

Love your honesty in all of your videos. Thanks Shane!

[anoushkamukherjee]

Hey Shane, will it be possible to make a video on the courses one needs to take in college to work in the skincare industry as a product formulator/cosmetic chemist? A few college suggestions will also be appreciated.😊

[bentakowsky]

Can you please make a video on an undergraduate cognitive science degree, particularly with a computing specialization? Thank you! Love the videos.

[darkkatty]

Thank you for all the efforts and the commitment that you put in for helping us choose the right path 🙏🏻

[kovitsingh]

Great content coming back to back. Keep it up man

[nadiagoldkamp]

I say, if you’re fascinated with the subject and are willing to work for it, go for it. Don’t change your degree based on a YouTube video (or comment)

You don’t know how your knowledge can help someone else’s life. There’s so much to brain heath that has yet to be discovered.
