RE: zoology/biology

Hey Elias. I completed the Biol Science course at Latrobe. It is a good course and gives you plenty of opportunities to specialise, but as DIF said, unless you want to complete honours and do a further post grad you may struggle to find a decent paying job at the end.

I was working as a public servant part time and studying part time, and it turns out I was earning more working part time whilst at uni than my friends did the first couple of years as a graduate. ( I personally would have been better off doing a trade) Because my main reasons for studying Biol Science involved my love for reptiles, which as long as I can keep them at home I'm happy!! So it really didn't matter where I ended up, as long as I enjoyed my work, of course by the way, the degree did help me get the job I am currently working in.

Cheers Rossco.
