 | What are some of the job requirements, to become a policy analyst? Do I need to prepare speeches, or briefing notes? I'm thinking of majoring in Public Administration and Governance, in University next year. I don't have strong English writing skills, or math skills but I enjoy learning about the law, and excel in that area? Is the job hefty work? I read its a lot of desk work.

 | I'm a 26 year old student in Canada, graduating this spring. I am wondering what you perceive as a fitting job for a political science student. What kind of jobs would be available for someone with that kind of educational background? I'm thinking the public service, or a government job of some sort, but does anyone have any concrete suggestions? I'm pretty sure I would need at least a Master's level degree to apply as a policy analyst, so what are some potential options? I live in Ontario, Canada. Thanks for your help in advance

| After getting my masters in economics and getting the job I strove for as a policy analyst in a law office I realize that I hate economics.
After two months I have come to realize how little precision there is in anything legal or policy based. People just don't want to reach agreements and government agencies purposely try to confuse the public with convoluted wording. Moreover government agencies seem to just spend all their time justifying their own existence.
I would really like to get my PhD in physics or math, and I am curious if anybody here has ever got a degree in something very different from a previous degree.
Thanks

 | My boyfriend is pursuing a 3-year BA with a combined major in economics and rhetoric. He would like to be either a policy analyst (hopefully running his own think tank one day) or a financial journalist, and he does not want to be in school beyond next year. He is hopeful that his experience as an income tax preparer and accounting clerk will make up for not having a graduate degree. I have studied journalism and could help him with that part if necessary. Is this realistic?

| I am currently in college and don't know what I want to do in life. My current major is nursing but I am a nursing assistant and I know I do not want to become a nurse, despite the good job prospects. It is just not my thing. However, what are the prospects for someone with the above degrees? And what kind of jobs could I work with degrees in those fields?
Ok, but what about international studies?

| I've been thinking about joining a federal agency for some time now, whether it be DEA, FBI, CIA, or whatnot. As a college junior majoring in history, I was just wondering whether I'd be qualified for such a position, and what type of work it would entail. Is it necessarily of the same high-risk profession as seen in "NCIS" or "24" with all the office drama and intrigue, even if I'm not deployed on the field? And would having a career in the public sector be beneficial if I plan to go into public policy doing more analytical work?
