Poll: University

[Arisato-kun]

I'm in my second year studying computer animation at Edinboro University. I love it, the teachers are fantastic. Can't wait until my last year because it entails an entire class working together on a film.

 

[similar.squirrel]

Starting on the 14th of September. A Bsc [Honours] in either Applied Biosciences or Herbal Science [I'm hoping for the latter].
Straight-to-Masters seem to be thin on the ground in this country, for some reason.

Not technically a University, but rather an Institute of Technology. Not as prestigious as a University, basically. But more scientifically-oriented, so far as I can tell.

I am a Chemistry major at Saint Louis University. A bit expensive, but not too bad.

 

[Spaghetti]

About to start my 3rd year at the University of Dundee, doing History and Politics MA. I'm looking forward to getting stuck in again

 

[Flunk]

I guess this thread really shows that over-educated people play a lot of videogames. Or perhaps people who didn't go to University are too ashamed to vote in this poll.

 

[lorddent]

About to start final year of History at Oxford University. I am gonna have literally no life for the next year.

 

[Casimir_Effect]

Just wondering if anyone here on the Escapist attends university. What Uni do you go to? What do you study? And for all those who don't go, are you concidering going to university in the future?

[sub]Anyone go to Teesside? >_<[/sub]

What? No option for us postgraduates? Show some love to those who survived their first war then signed right back up for another.

 

['Aredor]

I'm in my final year of studying computer science at the KIT (that's Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, a very stupid new name for the collaboration of the University of Karlsruhe and the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe that the management came up with to make it sound more international).

Off to Aberystwyth to study History.

I go to Aberystwyth University, Wales. Studying history

How strange is that? The two of you go to the same uni, both study history, went there within a year, wrote about it within two minutes and even joined this site within a week. I'll bet one of you chaps is the evil twin of the other.

 

[Sexual Harassment Panda]

I'm one of the few who isn't going this year.
For now, I don't think I ever will, but that may change.
Maybe if they weren't forcing me at school, I might have considered it.
And I'm sick of one of my friends telling me I won't get a job if I don't go.

You'll have trouble getting a job even if you do...

I have a friend with a journalism degree who works at Iceland, and a friend who didn't even get GCSE's who is a banker...go figure.

OT: Attended uni briefly(4 or 5 months, maybe), hated it and quit. I was apathetic about it before I had even started, so I should have known I wouldn't last.

I attained 4 years of work experience instead(bartending)which actually turned out to be pretty cool. I socialise at work and get paid for it(and make extra in tips for being friendly), I can also drink if I please.

Horses for courses and all...but, I think we do seriously overvalue uni.

 

[yoyo13rom]

I'm gonna start in October.
It's a Uni from Romania so I totally doubt you're interested in it's name.
I'll be studying electronics and telecommunications mainly, but I'll have loads of other courses.

 

[WolfThomas]

Third year of Medicine at Monash Unversity Australia. Should be asleep now so I can get up and do boring some pathology cases in the morning, stupid tv tropes.

 

[PureChaos]

i graduated last year, got over £20,000 of studens loans to pay back and ended up in a job where the qualification i got wasn't necessary

 

[Ranooth]

Starting my second year in 2 weeks, bring on UDK!!

 

[Outlaw Torn]

I guess this thread really shows that over-educated people play a lot of videogames. Or perhaps people who didn't go to University are too ashamed to vote in this poll.

Or that not everyone who plays a lot of videogames is under-educated.

 

[AnnihilaSean]

Computer Games Technology at Abertay in Dundee.

[AndyRock]

where's my definitely going option? I've already pretty much finished my UCAS for next year, hopefully going to study mechatronics at Sheffield.

This town ain't big enough for the both of us!

That is a little strange ^_^

Also, his interests list is pretty much all the things I like to do.

Creepy...

 

[FaceFaceFace]

Yes, but I live in America so we call it going to college.

 

[C95J]

thinking about going to uni when I finish school, but still not quite sure...
