[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1170201, member: 43436"] Degrees in computer science as well as pretty much anything math/science related are the most in demand. Business is a solid option, but a surge in graduates has made the job market more competitive -- including, in many areas, declining entry-level salaries. But it's a misnomer to believe that a college degree is a good "backup" option to driving. If you graduate in 2013, lose your job in 2017, you're essentially unhireable as most employers will believe you failed to retain most of your knowledge -- and in computer science fields, it won't be current. But there are companies such as UPS that only care you have a degree should you go into reporting management -- not whether you've "used" it, or when it was earned. [/QUOTE]
