I need to choose my M.sc programs

[Barioth]

Hi everyone!

I need to start thinking about what program to choose for my M.sc (I need to apply before 1 may 2014). I'll have completed my undergrad in pure math by then, but I've no idea of what subject to go in!

Every graduate math program my school offer seem very interesting, engineering could be a great option even computer science seem very fun!

How did you choose your field? Any regret?

Thanks

You must be excited that you are finishing your undergraduate program in a year . For the undergraduate program I chose computer science I still have three years maximum to finish it ( a minor in mathematics will make the schedule busy ). So far no regrets , even though I spend lots of time reading mathematics.I think computer science is a fun subject not so complicated and beautiful .

Hi Barioth, :)

Great to hear that you are planning to do your grad studies. The way I did it was to shortlist the main fields that I like to do and apply for programs that involves those fields. Since you've got a long time to apply maybe you can search through the departmental websites and contact professors who are doing research that interests you. That way you'll have a better idea of choosing what fits you most. :)

for reaching out! Choosing a field for your M.sc program can be a daunting task, but it's also an exciting opportunity to delve deeper into a specific area of study. My advice would be to consider your interests, strengths, and career goals when making your decision. Think about what subjects you enjoyed the most during your undergraduate studies and what type of career you envision for yourself. You can also talk to professors or professionals in the fields you are considering to gain a better understanding of the potential opportunities and challenges.

As for my own experience, I chose my field based on my passion for research and the potential for impact in the real world. I have no regrets about my decision, as I have been able to pursue my interests and contribute to advancements in my field. However, it's important to keep an open mind and be willing to explore new areas of study, as your interests and goals may change over time. Ultimately, the most important thing is to choose a program that you are passionate about and that will provide you with the skills and knowledge to achieve your career aspirations. Best of luck in your decision-making process!
