	What is major in biology good for? I really love biology, and I would like to know precisely what kind of jobs I can get as a bio major (besides being a professor), how much they pay, and if bio major is on demand these days. I would greatly appreciate any additional advice about this major, the downfalls of it, and anything else I might need to know. P.S. please inform me about the pay, it's very important to me, I am not looking for extreme riches, I would just like to make sure I earn a decent living with the major I choose. 2 answers - Asked By: hjj - 4/1/2009

	Science Foundation Ireland :poor value for money or an elite club syphoning off scarce resources? Yesterdays Irish Independent Thursday March 26 2009 CUTS in research funding would be damaging for the economy, Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) warned yesterday. SFI director general Prof Frank Gannon said that cutting funding would have a 'ripple effect' which could affect the IDA's work in attracting investment in jobs. More than 40pc of the Foreign Direct Investment projects won by the IDA last year were for research and development initiatives. "It is essential we prepare for the new global environment that will exist after this recession," Prof Gannon said. "Ireland will have to be able to win exports by being the location from where new, essential and complex products originate," he added. ************************************************************************ The Question: public outrage is justifiably direced against high paid bankers who have led their business into collapse and there is disquite about the blank cheque Cowan keeps writing them, But what about the blank cheque written to SFI and the Irish universities to attract industry to Ireland. Is it value for money ? are jobs really create or is SFI just a vehicle for top scientists to be paid mega salaries. Example: From Sunday Independent and Primetime Associated Professor of Genetics (Smurfitt InstituteTCD) 138,000 collage salary, unvouched college expenses 38,000 SFI salary ??????? and xpense ???? Research area : bioinformatics How many jobs in Ireland did his research create in 2008 and what was the cost to the taxpayer per job Example 2 : Neuroscience PI TCD, Super salaried as collegue above Lecturer in Genetics and Neuroscience TCD ( ? Two salaries) How many jobs did TCD's andSFI's investment in his research directly create ? 1 answer - Asked By: littleelttilmik - 3/27/2009

	Medical Lab Technologist OR Clinical Lab Tech? So I'm college right now for my B.S in Cell and Biotech(3rd Year), and am planning on going to P.A school and trying my best to get my foot in the door for clinical/patient care experince even if its small. Its hard, and I'm always trying to think of back-ups, one being IF ALL ELSE FAILS, to go into bioinformatics, or something related. I recently came upon becoming a Medical Lab Technologist, which works well for me because thats all ive been doing so far in college (chem, orgo chem, bio, micro, physics..etc), however.. most schools in my state offer a CLINICAL LAB TECH Associates degree program. I was wondering whats the difference bwtn a Clinical Lab Tech(CLT) and a Medical Lab Technologist(MLT), and differences in certification (NHA vs.ASCP).. (Clinical Lab Tech/med lab tech VS Medical Lab Technologist) ALSO, im really confused because 1 program at a technical school, says that i need all the basic classes, which Ive done in college already, and it angers me that I could have had an associates right now in clinical lab tech, and gotten a really good paying job, is it worth going to a Technical school for an associates (as a transient student) and then going back to college to finish my B.S? Crazy i know, but I really want to get a head start on some good, stable career. Or should I wait until my B.S, and go to Emory for a 1 year course in MLT, which is a stamp for a really good paying job? SO CONFUSED , HELP!! thankyouuu thank you so much! however, what can i do in that field that will allow be to work (with or without training) that I can do along side with college? I was thinking to take a semester off, and go the associates route, and have some credits transfer, but would that be too much? worth it? 1 answer - Asked By: KINO - 8/14/2012

	I'm really stuck. I need advice from former Biology majors? I have no idea what to do with my life. I have a BS in Biology. I am thinking about getting my MS in Bioinformatics but I'm not a computer scientist. Besides going to nursing/med school, what would give me job security and great benefits. I have a kid and am struggling to make ends meet. Please anyone, give me some good advice. I have a tech job that is going no where. I want to make at least $65-70K. I realize I may need to go back to school for this (get my masters, or maybe even my PhD) and I am fine with that. The only problem is that I have no idea what I want to do!! I would love something that isn't too technical (like lab work). 1 answer - Asked By: somegirl - 12/30/2007
