I was under the impression that your graduate degrees didn't have to be related to undergrad at all, but I know nothing about these corners of higher education.

- MangoToupe 1y agoThat's correct. If you can convince a doctoral program to take you, you can get a PhD in it.
- Traubenfuchs 1y agoI know a big 4 strategy consultant who has a bachelor and master degree in business who, for some reason, could only get a phd position at our local university of agriculture/brewery/bio-technology and wrote a pointless thesis about a sustainability topic he had zero interest in to get his stupid phd title. Now he is earning breath taking amounts of money by churning out power point documents so I guess his path was correct.
- AnimalMuppet 1y agoIf they are pointless power point documents about topics he has zero interest in, then it may have been good training...
- dragonwriter 1y agoYeah, one of my friends in college got his BA in Rhetoric & Communication and was accepted directly into a Physics Ph. D. program.
