BACK TO SCHOOL THREAD

Ill check this out dude
thanks

Studying Philosophy. Final year. Taking classes on Latin and English and Critical Theory. Reading Aeneas in Latin. Apparently there is a course packet for English (lame) which I need to pick up. Should've taken the class long ago but at least it'll be easy. Critical theory class is going over folx like Bourdieu and Foucault and Butler. Should be fun.

Bump

Start in a month, taking a research seminar, Japanese translation class, class on Spinoza, and a class on German Idealism

Starting engineering masters at Polytechnique Montreal

Will read some classics (Homer, Conrad, Hemingway, etc) since I got tired of essays

So who is starting high school?

lmao reminds me of a girl i met the other day that i knew is doing her bachelor's in film studies
>ask her why she chose to study film
>tells me she never really knew what to study and pretty much picked it at random and because it was easy to get into
>doesn't want to do her master's in film though but in english literature instead
>ask her what her favorite author is
>thinks for a good 2 minutes and then says susan sontag
>and fiction?
>another minute passes before she says elfriede jelinek
>fucking austrian high school reading
>ask her why she does english literature in particular then and not just literature
>because it's easier to do a semester abroad in the uk this way

Hell yea. What're you studying?

I honest to God wish I would have majored in a STEMfag major (Computer Science most likely) as opposed to Studio Art, but then again when I think about it for real, I just live in an area with a supremely shitty job market lmao.

Anyway, I should revisit Wassily Kandinsky's Concerning the Spiritual in Art, and get back into the habit of reading about art history in general. Fuck man, I really miss college already.

t. it's been a full year (plus three months) since I had graduated college

Why, mathematics, of course.

Pitt.edu
Undeclared but going to do philosophy
Stat - regular stats)
Phil - intro to logic
Phil - intro to ancient philosophy (writing component; should be easy)
Russian - beginner's
Anthropology - "human ecology" aka global warming (fulfills a requirement)
As far as books go, most are generic textbooks. The one for ancient philosophy I'm hoping is good; it's ~1,000 pages long and supposedly covers most of the ancient Greek dudes. Stupid fucker in the global warming class made me buy 5 books (more than any other class) and I was only able to find one as a PDF. The rest were $20 a piece or more.
Anyhow, looking forward to this semester. I've clarified what I want to do (philosophy) and am happy to be taking a bunch of classes that interest me. Hoping I do well because last semester I got a C in calc 1 which brought my GPA down to like a 3.6 or something.
Oh well. I've already accepted a life of poverty so I'm mostly just interested in learning shit and getting proof of it. Still teach myself a lot of stuff

Studying philosophy at a community college, going to transfer to isu for my bachelor's, and idk where for masters and what not. On my third and final semester for an associate's. Also going to minor in poli sci.

I graduated from there a year and a half ago. There are cool Yea Forums types there, and funny enough I met a few in the frat I joined. I notice they tend to be history majors more than any other type, maybe take a few courses there. Though bear in mind that I’m biased in that I was a history major.

With that said I recommend Professors Schüring and Kroen for some true Yea Forums discussions, along with courses taught by Professors Caputo and Sahin if you wish to learn about things not taught as much. Also if you go out you better be going downtown.

Law school. 3L. Former STEMfag going for patent law. Reading about closely held business organizations because its on the bar.

Studying lit at Umich right now. The philo department here sucks.

This feels like such a random aglomerate of books. Not bad books, by any means, just very different from one another.

>Night in Chile by Bolano

Bolano might be my favorite writer, but this one I felt was just an avarage work of his. I would definitely recommend The Savage Detectives and - specially - 2666 over this, though these are much longer books.

I also go to umich (engineering) and I will be taking my first class in the philosophy department next week. What do you dislike about the department?

Graduated in engineering this year. Trying to get into an MFA. Fml

It's too analytical for my taste, but that's just Anglo universities in general. What phil course you taking?

I've had a few brushes with so-called "normies" and holy shit you guys really aren't lying. Harry Potter, social justice, and drag queen gifs galore. Seems like writing is a gay or womanly thing to do nowadays.

Get used to it. In undergrad I took more theory classes than classes that read novels (to clarify: a majority of the classes I took were about poetry/drama, not theory). In graduate school now about half of the classes offered are theory-centered or themed. It seems to be the trend among my graduate peers to write very theory-heavy papers for conferences/publication than close reading/analysis papers. I remember distinctly one of the first "workshops" for a peer's paper in graduate school: it was apparently about Emily Dickinson, but none of her poems were quoted/referenced and half the paper was about global warming.

How do you just switch into MSc STEM after doing philosophy? Is just something people do? I thought you needed undergrad STEM requirements

Intro to Political Science. I took Intro to Philosophy and Ethics at WCC. Philosophy professors kind of sucked over there, so I come here in an effort to reenforce my knowledge. How about you? What are you taking?

What do you mean? Did this actually happen?

I'm taking phil381, giving the philosophy department one more shot, since I only had one 100 level phil class before. polsci101 with Disch was terrible, imo, she kept pointing to passages of the text that weren't the essence of it, and her slides were watered down and crappy (but what can you expect from a 101 class?). Hopefully your prof is better. Just do the readings and think for yourself.

Pharma student here, the first thing I will do when I get back is borrow the only copy of Baumgarten's methaphysics of the Humanities Library as I couldn't find it as an epub.
I'm also pretty happy as I will meet again with my gym (uni) friends

Enjoy getting replaced by pajeets or automatons

Software Engineering is for most programs a lot less demanding to get into at the graduate level. Computer Science at the masters level requires STEM background, and at the PhD level requires (usually) strong published research in the field. Software Engineering masters is very much a trade degree — very little math, if any, mostly just focusing on projects. If you can get a job programming somewhere, you can get into a good SWE masters. Definitely not the case for Comp Sci. Keep in mind that Comp Sci beyond undergrad (and even in undergrad at good programs) has basically no programming and is mostly theory once you do the REAL computer science coursework.

I’ve known people who did this exact thing and were Phil or English undergrads. They’ve all done pretty well on average.

As an additional note: few people with a CS undergrad usually goes back for a CS (and virtually never a SWE) masters. You’ll see a lot of undergrad math, physical science, computer/electrical engineering, some liberal arts bachelors who make up a lot of the class.

Well, and lots of Indians since all Indian schools (even the top ones) are deservedly considered trash-tier in the United States and abroad. So they have to get a masters from a real university to get a job.

Second year Geology, first year Chemistry. This first term is going to be hard but ill see how i manage.

Yes because it would bring you closer to me :D

what the fuck
didn't everyone learn the difference between fiction and non-fiction when they were 10 and started reading kids books and encyclopedias

Me. North Dakota state University, will finish my degree only $22,000 in debt or so. Going to law school afterwards hopefully but still won't reach the amount of debt that other people get into with just an undergrad degree.

>Second year Geology, first year Chemistry

That sounds fun user

I know you'll probably end up doing something very mundane and practical like reading computer graph readouts of mineral levels in ore deposits to test for the presence of oil or something like that, because this is a depressing age where everything is like this, but I like to imagine you're going to wear a wide-brimmed hat and go collecting weird rocks in Italy like Goethe

Dropped out and working in a library instead. University was such a fucking meme, I couldn't handle one more minute of those retarded charlatans.

Working towards two associates degrees in math and classical studies at Langara College, will be working part time in healthcare as I complete my paramedic qualifications and save up money for a truck. The community atmosphere at Langara seems nonexistent, which suits me just fine— Vancouver is an interesting city, lots of international intrigue there, particularly concerning big finance and the Pacific rim, and it will only increase as China consolidates power over Hong Kong and other great cities... in fact Vancouver could be one of the last remaining great cities (in terms of political independence and relative freedom) of the Pacific in another fifty years.
Taking classes in Japanese and Latin, the Japanese I intend to augment by taking Karate classes off campus. Another course called Rise and Fall of the British Empire looks very interesting.

4th semester psychology student here. Honestly I'm liking it a lot, especially Skinner's radial behaviorism and neurology. The only subject that grinds my gears are related to social psychology and the likes which are pretty much leftist indoctrination applied in psych.
To think that I'll have at least 1 class related to social subjects in every semester is kinda disheartening, to be honest. But I'll survive.

Most of them are. If you want to catch an actual human woman, go check out lolcow and you can learn their behaviors. I feel as if the girl who I strike up conversation with on public transit every other morning is a pinkpill of sorts and I enjoy her musings on the accelerationist implications of allowing transfemales in feminist circles and I LIKE IT.

I like the jazz bars, they’re expensive for drinks though, unfortunately

Yeah, the lit department's pretty good, so far the classes I've been taking haven't had so much multicultural BS and more of the classics. I would've done a classics BA, the dept here for that is probably better than the lit dept, but I only have so much money to spend and the prereqs for classics would take me too long. I should've done AP Latin in hs, my Latin teacher even ran independent study sessions for attic Greek. Then I probably could've done classics. Oh well, too late to dwell on the past. You thinking about going here?

Studying law in University College Cork. This year gonna be covering torts, EU economic law, and property law, as well as German as an elective. I've got Herodotus' histories, the Iliad and the Odyssey lined up for next semester, plus probably a fair bit of unplanned reading.

Wow first time meeting another BYU student on here. I’m in ChemEng though.

I hope so... PhD's are a lot of work but the idea of being a wagie is a million times worse

Finished Herodotus a couple of weeks ago. So comfy

Just graduated with a law degree from a state university in fucking Romania. It was hard but satisfying.
Right now studying to become a judge/prosecutor, but the entrance exam is pretty difficult, so i don’t have time for any reading outside law related stuff.
Pretty stressful desu

I've heard some really good things from lads studying classics so I'm all giddy to start it.

English at University at Buffalo. Mostly considered a stem school but their English program is pretty good and used to be one of the best in the country, or so I hear.

that post is indistinguishable from a copypasta
are you seriously doing all that, while maintaining sanity? sounds like a lot of work
taking math courses alone is a lot of mental work.

The theoretics of social psychology are indeed interesting (even if more often than not they fall under dogmatic opinions rather than factual approaches to the subjects at hand) but it's very unlikely to see them applied in my country (Brazil) in a way that isn't tainted by ideologisms.

To be fair that's true for social sciences at large and in the majority of western countries.

I’ve alreay finished the cert. course for being a paramedic, it’s just a matter of transferring my certification across borders, or getting a car which lets me drive to the USA. The hours on an ambulance are great so realistically I’m looking at one 12 or 16 hour shift on the weekend and otherwise spending the rest of the week focusing on school. I’m transferring credits from another university, so as long as I take classes pertaining to those two departments (which I want to do anyways) I don’t have to overload in any semester.
Of course this is all theoretical, since I don’t start till next week. I figure it’s best to keep myself busy however. I’ll be living in a shared apartment of 6+ immigrants sleeping on mattresses in a tiny apartment, so my financial obligations are few but there’s no incentive for me to use my apartment as anything but a place to sleep.

Depends on how dumb you are. Go to a better school if you get in (like Michigan or Duke or American or an Ivy) but its not like Alabama or LSU or something

I wanna study history at uni (in Europe without crazy debt) Is it even worth it these days?

It has cool projects. Looks good on your CV. It has some tedious math sometimes (try doing a backpropagation exercise by hand) but maybe it was just my professor. If you like programming and doing projects, I'd say go for it.

Also not perfect, but serves much better for the tougher arguments and uses a far more standard translation of key Greek phrases like words for "understanding" or "intelligence."
Either one will do, I think for reading Plato. Other than knowing the commonly accepted translations of key terms in Plato the translation doesn't affect the work nearly as much as a translation of, say, Heraclitus.

Studying fiction at SDSU. Manuscript. Mostly SDSU MFA alums, so shit.

Calc 3 can be really fucking fun my dude. Do your best to visualize the concepts because they're unbelievably intuitive once you can visualize them. It's like the Camus of a BS of math. Other classes like diff eq and linear algebra probably and number theory probably give you a better foothold for higher level math, but nothing's as comfy as Calc 3.

So far it's been good. Better than calc 2. I'll probably take linear algebra and number theory among others next semester. You're right though, calc 3 is entertaining compared to others
