Solarees Posted August 16, 2014 Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 Hi,I'm currently studying for a bachelor of science in geosciene. I can fit a bachelor of arts with my degree if I take my electives carefully. So I'm considering a bachelor of arts in linguistics as well.What do guys think about this? has anyone done a linguistics degree and how is it? Is it worth it?

Trellum Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 I really think you should pursue your dream. But if there is another degree you could benefit from and you are interested in as well, then take it. If not, then this degree might be the answer.

sidney Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 I agree, if you like what you're doing, then it won't seem like work at all, so you should just continue to pursue your course. And you can definitely use the added knowledge when you apply for a teaching job, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mshel Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 I always encourage people to follow their hearts and do what is best for their lives. At the same time, looking at the situation from a practical and realistic standpoint is very important. Any student majoring in linguistics should have a full understanding of the prospects for getting a job in that field. The last thing anyone wants to do is earn a degree and not get a decent paying job (in the career field) after the fact. I've been there and done that!
