Does it matter what degree I get to be a product designer (BID, BDes, BA, BS, etc.)?

I'd like to pursue product design as a major in college and I can't really find any substantial information how it influences potential employers or the extremity of the differences between them. I'm interested in industrial design for consumer products (and UI/UX, but that's a different...

When it comes to selecting a candidate are there any potential warning signs that signal they might not be a good fit?

My instructor did a role-play with another instructor on how to conduct an interview. The class ran out of time, we weren't able to go over the warning signs. I was wondering if anyone has had experience with a "bad" interviewee. #human-resources #talent-recruiting #talent-acquisition

Will a TI-84 or similar graphing calculator ever come in handy in software development, or will I only ever need it for school?

I'm curious whether it would make more sense to sell my TI-84 when I'm done with the math classes for my degree, or to hold onto it. #computer-science #computer-software #software-engineering #computer-programming #software-development #software-design

I know I love computer science, but on many applications, it lists both of these as majors, with the distinction of computer science being in their arts school, and the latter in their engineering school #science #technology #stem

Currently, I am weighing my options for the future- I'm planning to go to UW Platteville to pursue a career in forensic investigation this fall. However, I realise that job openings for this career are slim, and taking that into consideration, I am unsure of the workload that I may face. #forensic

Are there only certain forensic scientists that are asked to go crime scenes to investigate and gather data?

I am physically disabled and I enjoy and prefer working in lab settings. I wouldn't be comfortable with going to crime scenes and having to be extra careful with my steps or worrying about how I will help gather evidence if I have to squat or be in positions that are difficult for me to get in....
