I think we are loosing the whole point of this....
what is a good degree to have as a backup in case $h^& hits the fan? (loosing your medical mainly. Accident wise...imposible to determine because you never know whether u are going to "loose" your arms or legs as stated before)
For example....shortage of ATC......Atc hmmmm sounds like a cool job, industry related, good money BUT they retire relatively young (50's? correct me if I'm wrong) so, by that age is most likely for a normal human being to start developing issues. (not that it couldn't happen at an earlier age!)....SYNOPSIS ---> NOT A GOOD BUCKUP
So...what is the right degree?
Great thread btw.
