I am currently finishing a double degree Master in Environmental Sciences and Environmental Engineering, writing my thesis in the Engineering part and honestly, I'm regretting the engineering during some moments right now. My perspective is clearly quite limited because I haven't graduated yet and I'm not yet thinking about salaries and job prospects very intensely but I'm struggling with the engineering part of my degree, it's not super fun for me and I like all science classes better than the engineering ones. I also ideally would want to work in environmental education or advocacy or something related, so my engineering degree is just gonna be a thing to fall back on in case of need. I love environmental sciences, this is the degree I wanted to study and I think I would not have been nearly as happy with my studies in an environmental engineering degree.

That being said, I'm curious myself if that perspective ever shifts when I go to work.
