M.a. In Political Science
As some of you may know, I'm a grad student in Political Science. Today I had my oral defence of my M.A. thesis, entitled "From Bipolarity to Unipolarity: American Leadership and the Future of the Bush Doctrine." It went very well--and very long, 2 hours--and I'm happy to report that I came out on the other side with my supervising committee recommending that the thesis be accepted. This pretty much wraps up my year at university, and soon I will have a Master of Arts degree!!!

Re: M.a. In Political Science
Great work man! There is someone I work with who has a Bachelors in Political Science, but there is nothing in this city that needs his degree right now, so he is a tad pissed off.

Re: M.a. In Political Science
I can definitely empathize with your co-worker. After I finished my B.A. I was still working at an IGA for a couple years. Not exactly applying my political skills and insights, ya know? At this point, I'm pretty much qualified to work in Ottawa and only a few other places! LOL

Re: M.a. In Political Science
It seems that even though more people are now doing post-grad degrees, there aren't really more jobs out there for those holding them. Really, the only change in wokr qualification requirements seems that now, unless you really hold a PhD, you can't work as an academic at universities, at least here in Aus.

Re: M.a. In Political Science
Yeah it's similar to that here too, I could teach at a college or high-school, maybe even the introductory stuff at the university level, but that stuff is mostly reserved for Ph.D's now. There's always the civil service, too, I've wanted to work in the foreign service for a pretty long time now. Canada's foreign policy could use a good kick in the pants.
