Hello Nitin!, I just graduated from college, with a degree in Finance and Accounting at the University of Warsaw in Poland. During my studies I had the opportunity to participate in an Erasmus exchange at the University of Maastricht, Netherlands. That was a super enriching experience. When it comes to economics at least where I'm from high school do not offer any supplementary finance courses, but I think in this industry networking is key. Thats why I would recommend joining any student association or leaving for an exchange if thats an option!

I obtained a degree in Business/Public Administration.
I focused much of my preparation in the area of the social sciences. This included courses in psychology, sociology, economics, business, history, and political science and law.
I think good colleges in your region would be Kansas and Kansas State. They both have excellent programs in these subject areas. Plus, you would be paying in state tuition, rather than going to another state and paying the higher out of state tuition and expenses.

Currently in the process of getting a telecommunications/multimedia communications degree, which is a bachelor in art. colleges vary depending on where you are located and I would recommend before choosing a school visit the campus if you can so you can get the just of where major buildings are. I live in Ohio so most people recommend Ohio State, Akron, Mount Union, and Youngstown State. I personally would recommend Youngstown State, the campus is not huge but not tiny so once you know your way around your set, Akron has a massive campus same with Ohio State, Mount Union is bigger than Youngstown state but smaller than Ohio State.

I think mathematics is a subject not to be neglected. There's a 99% chance that you won't use the theorems you'll learn in math class, but there's a 100% chance that you'll use the problem-solving skills in real life !

Hi Nitin, I study Politics and International Relations in London (I'm from the UK). I truly believe you can study almost anything as long as it is at a top university and you work to fill out your CV with meaningful things! Hope that helps.

Hello Nitin! I'm a Data Engineer (like a software engineer/computer programmer for data). It's an incredibly rewarding career, especially when you put your skills to use for a company like mine! I see that you're in the KCMO area. I studied at the Missouri University of Science and Technology, but if you're wanting to stay closer to home, I think either UCM or UMKC are both excellent schools as well. Try taking a programming class in high school if they offer one!

Hello Nitin!
I did a Bachelor of Science in Biological Chemistry at Griffith University in Australia. I went to Queensland University to do what used to be called a Masters Qualifying in Biochemistry. Then I studied for a Postgraduate Diploma at what used to be called the Queensland Institute of Technology [now the Queensland University of Technology]. I did Nutrition and Dietetics. Then I did another Postgraduate Diploma in Public Health at the University of New South Wales.
My profession is Nutrition and Dietetics.
Kansas University offers various programs in the field of dietetics and nutrition, including a Dietetic Internship Graduate Certificate, a Dietetics and Integrative Medicine Graduate Certificate, a Master of Science in Dietetics and Nutrition, a Doctor of Clinical Nutrition program, and a Ph.D. in Medical Nutrition Science. The Master of Science in Dietetics and Nutrition program is designed for professionals in nutrition and individuals with a science background. This program provides advanced knowledge in biochemical, pathological, and physiological processes related to disease prevention and treatment. Graduates are equipped with research competencies that allow them to participate in research, apply findings in public health or clinical practice, and translate research into evidence-based practice. The master’s degree alone does not lead to the registered dietitian credential; however, entry into practice as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) will require a master’s degree starting in 2024.
The application process for the Master of Science program at Kansas University involves submitting official transcripts from all institutions attended, demonstrating a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale for the bachelor’s degree program, and meeting English proficiency requirements if applicable. The program also offers an online option for registered dietitians through the Great Plains IDEA program. Application deadlines are typically June 1 for fall semester, October 30 for spring semester, and March 31 for summer semester.

These sources were consulted to gather detailed information about the programs offered by Kansas University in the field of dietetics and nutrition, admission requirements, application procedures, and the significance of obtaining a master’s degree for aspiring Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDNs).
In high school do a biology, chemistry, mathematics concentration. Sports dietitians do well too once they get associated with a sports or athletic team.

Hello! My degree is in Graphic Design, which I got from Full Sail University. They offer support for career development and skills in the field you want. As far as what classes to take in high school, I'd suggest, aside from art classes, doing any type of class that allows you access to computers, as well as finance classes just to boost your knowledge of the real world. Hope this helps!
