Answer 1

Do not be too concerned about what you choose.  It will not have have an effect on you getting a job.  What is most important in a job interview is how you present yourself.  If you present yourself as intelligent and hard-working, that will weigh more in getting a job.

Answer 2

I can suggest aeronautical Engineering. Is one of the fields with a future.

Answer 3

I`ll go with Rugby player on this one , Aeronautical engineering is the way forward , especially if you have a degree behind you . When I did my apprentiship with British Airways you didn`t have to have many qualifications , just GCSE`s , but that has all changed now . At least in that field there`s loads of opportunities for advancement and it`s interesting as h**l . Also , a big plus , if you work for an airline you get cheap/free travel , I saw the world this way and will never regret my time working for that company .

If you don`t fancy that then off shore wind farms ot natural gas is the up coming thing , which I`m looking to get into my self , big money and it`s two weeks on two weeks off !!

Anyway good luck and mail me if you want any more info .

Answer 4

biofuel? It is becoming ever more clear that biofuel is now causing nations to starve, and costs more, ecologically and economically, than any other power source. Maybe it  will look good on your CV later, but I doubt it will help anyone else.
