Hello all,
I was just curious as to what level of education is best before getting into industry.
My thoughts are that BS is good enough to employ you with basic skills and knowledge. Later, you can specialize once you get into industry. Downfall to that is that you have to get into industry through low-paying entry level jobs. In these cases, I feel like doing at least a masters is good as it is just a couple years more of education and you can start in a higher level and there is still an option of specializing. PhD, I think is that specialization that one can get after getting a taste of industry.
