00:00what's happening guys it's shane here
00:02and today we are going to be going over
00:04science major degree tier list all right
00:07so i made one of these last year in
00:09early 2020 and a lot has happened since
00:13obviously i've also done a lot more
00:15research on these degrees and by the way
00:18every degree in this video i've done a
00:22uh so you can check those out if you
00:23want more statistics or
00:25more of a deep dive on each of these
00:27individual degrees definitely check that
00:28out it's on my channel
00:30but we are gonna get right into this one
00:33gently tap that like button hit the
00:35subscribe button and ring the
00:36notification bell and then comment down
00:39which degrees you think are going to be
00:40the best so starting
00:42right off the bat we are going to do
00:44this video super fast guys
00:45aerospace science and aeronautics so
00:48this is a degree that you might get if
00:50you wanted to become
00:51a rocket scientist obviously not a super
00:54common degree but i thought it was funny
00:57the statistics on this one are amazing
00:59probably not everybody can do it but
01:01this one is going to go into ester next
01:04one is going to be an
01:05agriculture degree and this is going to
01:07be the science behind
01:09farming i have potato blood in my events
01:11statistics on this one are not very good
01:14and there's a reason for that in my
01:15opinion farming is one of those skills
01:17where it's pretty difficult to learn it
01:19in the classroom there are many skills
01:22that are perfect for the classroom
01:24setting for you to learn
01:25farming is not one of them and that's
01:27why the statistics on this one are not
01:29amazing but with that being said they're
01:32this one is going to land into sea tier
01:36that is very similar to agriculture but
01:39is going to be a little lower on the
01:40list is going to be animal science
01:42so this is going to be similar to you
01:44know farming but it's going to be
01:46animals right so specifically animals
01:49that people tend to consume
01:51we're talking about cows poultry pork
01:54etc and this one has a very similar
01:56issue where these are the types of
01:57skills that are just best learned in
02:00on the job training and the statistics
02:03even worse than agriculture so for that
02:05reason it's going to go into
02:06d tier next one on the list is going to
02:08be biochemistry and this is basically a
02:12of chemistry and biology so it's
02:14basically going to be studying the
02:16chemistry inside of living organisms
02:18now when it comes to the statistics on
02:20this one it's going to be better than
02:22both chemistry or biology
02:25and it's also more flexible there's a
02:27lot more jobs out there you can get with
02:28this degree it also makes a really good
02:31pre-med or pre-health type degree so for
02:33instance you might get a biochemistry
02:36go to medical school maybe you go become
02:38a pa or a nurse practitioner so this one
02:40has pretty good statistics i'm going to
02:42go ahead and put it into
02:43a tier next one on the list is going to
02:45be biology on its own
02:47this one has a lot less flexibility
02:50a lot less job prospects it doesn't make
02:54as much and on top of that the thing
02:56really sucks is it's a very popular
02:59degree and unfortunately
03:00when something gets really popular the
03:02downside to that is it also
03:04can tend to get saturated so biology is
03:07most common degrees that people graduate
03:09with and in my opinion one of the most
03:11overrated so you know 10 20 years ago
03:13this one might have been higher on the
03:16this one is going to go into c tier and
03:18the reason for that is because a lot of
03:20the time you're not going to be able to
03:21get a job with just a bachelor level
03:24that has anything to do with biology and
03:27if you are able to get a job that has to
03:28do with biology it's usually going to be
03:32but with that being said if you're very
03:33passionate about something you know what
03:34you're doing you've done your research
03:36and you've looked ahead
03:37this one can still be okay it can be
03:39viable next on the list is going to be a
03:41chemistry degree and it has better
03:43statistics than a biology degree
03:45but not quite as good as biochemistry so
03:48this one is going to be going
03:50right in the middle in b-tier and again
03:52guys don't have time on this video to go
03:54over the numbers but the main things
03:56in my other videos of course are going
03:58to be salary job satisfaction how many
04:00jobs are actually available
04:02and then other x factors next on the
04:04list is going to be environmental
04:07this is one that unfortunately does not
04:09have very good statistics
04:11there just aren't that many jobs out
04:12there that are available not to say that
04:14it's not a valuable skill but it's not
04:17employable skill i think a lot of people
04:20would be better off if they're really
04:21passionate about this subject which a
04:24are getting an environmental engineering
04:27so this one um i guess i'll be nice and
04:31tier next on the list is going to be
04:33exercise science and this is another one
04:36very very popular lots of people every
04:39single year graduate
04:40with an exercise science degree and many
04:44become personal trainers the only
04:46problem with that is you do not need a
04:48degree to become a personal trainer
04:49and i'm not saying that that's right or
04:51wrong maybe you should need a degree
04:53maybe there would be a lot less injuries
04:56of people who try to work out without
04:58you know proper guidance
05:00but the unfortunate reality is you don't
05:02and so for that reason an exercise
05:04science degree when it comes to an
05:07is a little bit redundant and that's why
05:09the statistics on this one are not
05:11very good um this one is going to go
05:14d tier next on the list is going to be
05:17food science and this one
05:18is actually surprisingly useful there
05:20are a lot of jobs out there in the food
05:22industry for people who have food
05:25the statistics on this one are pretty
05:27good the only thing that i would say
05:29is a lot of the time you can get the
05:33jobs as somebody who graduates with a
05:36if you graduated with a biochemistry
05:38degree or a chemistry degree
05:40however biochemistry and chemistry are
05:42going to be much more flexible than food
05:44science but i'm kind of nitpicking there
05:47this one does have pretty decent
05:49and so for that reason it's going to go
05:51into b tier next on the list is going to
05:54forestry and this is going to be
05:55studying you know how to not only
05:58forests but to utilize the wood in an
06:00efficient manner that doesn't basically
06:03whatever ecosystem that wood comes from
06:06involved in forestry are going to be you
06:08know outside all day which can be
06:10extremely attractive to certain people
06:12but the numbers here again are not
06:15um they're also not horrible so this one
06:17is going to go right in the middle in
06:19c tier next on the list is going to be
06:21geography this is going to be studying
06:24primarily the surface of the earth as
06:28and when you look at the numbers on this
06:29one it's actually not that bad
06:31now one of the main reasons why the
06:33numbers are pretty good
06:35is much of the time people who get
06:37geology degrees will end up working in
06:39the natural gas industry natural gas
06:41industry is known for paying people
06:44but the other thing about natural gas
06:46and just energy industry in general
06:48is it is extremely volatile and it
06:50fluctuates all the time so for instance
06:53the pandemic absolutely destroyed
06:56natural gas companies
06:57now they are starting to recover um and
06:59it's looking up a little bit
07:01uh so for that reason i am going to go
07:03ahead and put this one
07:05into b-tier actually you know what it's
07:07recovering pretty well
07:09i'm going to go ahead and put geology
07:10into a-tier if i'm being fair
07:12the numbers for geology are pretty good
07:14and there's other jobs outside of the
07:16natural gas industry it is a relatively
07:19next one on the list is going to be
07:21neuroscience and you're going to be
07:22studying probably the most complicated
07:25structure in the entire universe which
07:28and this focuses more on the structure
07:31of the physical brain itself whereas you
07:34know something like psychology
07:35uh focuses more on the kind of like the
07:37social science aspect of it now
07:39one thing about neuroscience is i think
07:42is one where the numbers are okay right
07:45now but it could be a lot better in the
07:48i think there's a lot of things coming
07:49out you know you see elon musk with his
07:52neuralink company for instance
07:53you see a lot of stuff with virtual
07:55reality augmented reality
07:57and i do see a lot of things coming down
07:59the pipeline that would make a
08:02incredibly valuable but it's not quite
08:05so this is one where i think it could be
08:08a dark horse candidate
08:09um i'm gonna go ahead and put this one
08:11into b tier but it could end up being
08:14a tier or honestly it could also end up
08:17or d tier this is kind of a dark horse
08:20candidate i really don't know what's
08:21gonna happen with this one
08:22next on the list is going to be physics
08:24and when it comes to the numbers this
08:26is the best on the entire list by far
08:30this one is clearly going to go into
08:33i will say about physics it's probably
08:35the most difficult degree that you can
08:38the average person is basically a genius
08:40i talked about this in the video i went
08:42where i talked about the hardest degrees
08:45so yeah physics when you look at the
08:46numbers it's fantastic
08:47um the only thing that's a little bit of
08:49a knock to it is again
08:51you know very difficult and then the
08:53second thing is it's going to teach you
08:55skills but they're not necessarily
08:58now the thing is companies are going to
09:00know that you're extremely smart and
09:02extremely hard working so
09:03they're probably going to hire you
09:04anyways even though you don't
09:06necessarily have the talents that
09:08they're specifically
09:09looking for but a lot of companies have
09:11this concept or this way of hiring
09:14where they basically just try to hire
09:15their smartest people and then they
09:17think that they can just train them
09:18later on see this is very common in the
09:20finance industry for instance so a lot
09:22of people who graduate with
09:23physics degrees might end up working in
09:25finance or they might end up working
09:27as computer programmers software
09:29developers but yeah this one is
09:31clearly going to go into s tier when it
09:33comes to science degrees
09:35next one on the list is going to be
09:37psychology and this is one where you
09:39could classify it as like a science
09:41degree or a social science degree
09:43i believe this is actually the most
09:46over a hundred thousand people graduate
09:48with psychology degrees
09:50every single year and so because of that
09:53it is very saturated and i can see why
09:55so many people like it it's
09:56very interesting psychology is super
09:58interesting but the problem is
10:00is a lot of other people think the same
10:02thing and so it's become saturated there
10:05almost no jobs at the bachelor level you
10:08pretty much have to get like a master's
10:11just to get like an entry-level job and
10:13a lot of the time you're going to have
10:14to get a doctorate just to be able to
10:16get a halfway decent job and even then
10:18there's a lot of competition
10:20okay so you really want to look into it
10:22if you get this degree guys you
10:23have to have to have to do your research
10:27a path for yourself if you decide to get
10:31so overall this one is going to go into
10:34tier now i reserved one for f tier
10:37and that is basically these like random
10:41science degrees it's like they just take
10:43a random subject and then they
10:44just put the word science on the end of
10:47it so i'll give you a few examples
10:48wildlife and fisheries science mortuary
10:52library and information science now some
10:55of these to be fair aren't necessarily
10:57science degrees they just kind of like
10:59tack that word on to make it sound good
11:01i honestly don't even know why
11:03universities call it that but a lot of
11:06literally the worst statistics out of
11:08all the degrees on this list right
11:10out of all the degrees on like any list
11:12these things have horrible horrible
11:15the numbers are awful for these don't
11:19be very careful make sure you do your
11:21research if you go into any degree
11:24if it sounds weird like they just kind
11:26of tacked science onto the end of the
11:29that's a bit of a red flag you see this
11:31with other degrees like studies
11:33or engineering technology just be very
11:36careful out there you know college is a
11:38business at the end of the day guys
11:40so you know these universities it seems
11:42like sometimes they just
11:44create degrees just to meet certain
11:48and these degrees don't necessarily
11:50teach you employable skills
11:52so yeah this one is clearly going to go
11:54into ftier check out my other videos
11:56right here i made them just for you go
11:58ahead if you haven't done it already tap
12:00that like button hit the subscribe
12:01button ring the notification bell and
12:03comment down below any thoughts comments
12:05etc that you have on the video
12:07if you're someone who has graduated with
12:09some of these degrees let me know
12:11what you think of my list and i will see
