Howdy.
In 2020, I graduated with a B.S. in Computer Engineering + Science. I worked in the field for several years, did my time, and absolutely hated it. I took a multi-year break and did some soul searching. Now, I am pretty confident in what I want.
I am currently enrolled in an online program (B.S. Energy & Sustainability Policy + Geography). I am about to finish my first year and am realizing that 1) I hate online school. I would greatly prefer to be in-person, especially if I am paying this much, and 2) I miss my hard sciences. This program is very humanities-heavy, which is rewarding. But I am realizing that I would probably benefit/enjoy a program that is more STEM than policy.
A college that I have been looking to transfer into has an Environmental Science (and additional Coastal Science related) M.S. programs that look very enticing. I was originally thinking of transferring into a B.S. in E-Sci, but the M.S. program intrigues me.
Would you assume that a B.S. in CpE (alongside my first year of E&S Policy, undergrad water research, and two environmental internships) is prerequisite enough for admission? Would it be better to transfer into this college's E-Sci B.S. program and do the M.S. after? They also offer a "flex" program that combines the B.S./M.S. Any thoughts on this?
