[DIYbio] Re: Career advice for bioengineering Undergrad


Awesome! Thanks for the great advice guys. 

The startup atmosphere sounds very exciting, risky, emotional, character building, and an experience you can get nowhere else. Being younger I definitely see myself at least trying out the biotech startup scene and seeing where it takes me. I am leaning towards starting to work after college because I know graduate school can be a very big investment and sometime unnecessary. My only worry about starting work right away would be that I would be unqualified to do any significant research and would be stuck doing the boring and mundane technician jobs my whole career because I don't have any graduate experience.  

Dakota - From you and your friends experiences are you guys glad that you started working right away or do you wish you would have continued to graduate school? Since they talk about how bored they get, do they want to get a higher degree or will they stick with the jobs they have?
