i have always wanted to do somthing in art/design. Made a huge-wrong decision in choosing a completely unrealted degree,computer science. : | Is there any courses that would allow me to grab something back? I hold an Art alevel though.
Help me..

Have you considered subjects related to graphic design, computer animation, computer aided design. That way you may be able to combine your two aptitudes.

Hey oala. Have you thought about doing another degree i.e. starting all over again ? Or what about doing something like an art foundation course part time whilst working and see if that's what you really want to do ? Then if you decided you really wanted to get into art, go back to uni and get trained in it. All the best !

Danb, that is not good advice, how can starting all over again and wasting 3-4 years at uni be a good thing. I did a BSc, got a lower second, did a masters in a different field, and am now doing a phd in the field of my BSc, so it can still work out already. Just keep your chin up oala, it will work out, just sit back and think about the options and start looking into them

thanks for the reply. I just do not have enought confidence on myself. I mean, in terms of experiences, I have none. Now starting my 3rd year soon, I am feeling very very down and confused. Compare with other cs graduates, I don't know what advantages I have and what options out there I can move to. Shame on myself, very much.

Hi Oala, don't feel down and certainly don't feel ashamed! You don't have to give up on your goals in life just because you feel that, in retrospect, your degree course was perhaps not the best choice for you. I think the FindAPhD team made a very good suggestion, what do you think of this? How about booking an appointment with the careers team at your Uni for a bit of advice about your options? Best of luck for the future.
