I'm still in college, but I am working on my BA in Aerospace Engineering, hoping to go to grad school for it too.

That's awesome <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/lol.gif" alt="" title="smile" />

Just to qualify some terminology for me... is grad school postgraduate studies? As in after your undergraduate degree? We have different terminology for things here. Is "grad school" a separate institution to undergrad school?

B.S. in Social Psychology.  One of these days I'll go for a second B.S. in either physics or atmospheric sciences, then hopefully grad school.

Nobody has answered this question yet so I will.  Graduate school in America is postgraduate studies, as in it's school you take after you graduate university with a bachelor's degree.  Undergraduate school is what you take to get your bachelor's degree.  You can take your graduate school at the same university, or you can go to another university for it.  It's all post-secondary education.

That would be a fascinating subject!

I will be very interested to read your contributions to the science forum once you have made your 50 'getting to know you' posts.

A bs in speech communication does sound funny, like I got a degree in blabbing a lot of hot air.
Fascinating? Do I sense sarcasm?

[Willow]

Not yet.
I start my BA Social Work in September.

A PhD in kicking ass and a BS in BS.

No degree and no desire to go back and get one. I calculated that to do so would cost me alot of money in the long run.

Working on my Associates in Computer Information Technology, hopefully a Bachelors in it someday. Anything else, experience!

A BA (hons) in Graphic Arts specialising in branding, editorial design, semiotics, front end web dev, and 3D illustration & animation.

[Too Few Lions]

A BA in archaeology and an MA in comparative religion. So glad I didn't have to pay for my University education, particularly when it was so vocationally useless!

[DeterminedJuliet]

I have a BA in history and sociology

I somehow ended up working in the veterinary field (not as a vet, obviously). I have no idea how, but I really enjoy it. I've had a lot of hands on and continuing education with that, but nothing official.

I'm working on my BA in biochemistry. I (hopefully) plan to go to grad school after for either biochem or micro bio once I'm done with undergrad.

This is an interesting topic.  I have a Bachelor of Science (sorry, leaving it as the abbreviated B.S. makes me think of something else and laugh) in Criminal Justice Studies.  Why did I go for that?  I have no idea.  I was working in security, and thought I would like to be a cop.  I'm not sure it's the right fit, with my personality.  By the time I was coming to that realization, I was at the point where I needed to finish something in some capacity and have something to show for my efforts.  I wasn't worried at that point, 'cause I was still under the impression that the phrase "any degree will open doors for you" was true.     I was surprised to find out that we've become much more specialized, so all of a sudden I found myself being asked if I was going into law or law enforcement.  I burned out my energy, motivation and ambition to finish, which was a very great effort.  For the time being, I substitute teach during the school season, and try and find whatever I can in the summer; the teaching I like, so that's something.
