Haha my online degree I'm doing right now is Psychology.. :rolleyes:

I have B.S. in Av Sci.... Poor choice on my part. Anyway, how's the online degree thing work? I'm interested in taking additional classes in another subject area. Are you using Phoenix? ERAU extended campus?

I actually started my degree on campus full time at Arizona State while I got my ratings.. When I got a full time job instructing, I just changed to one of the online degrees that they offer. Pricing was actually cheaper than in-state tuition. Psychology was my choice. They are getting more and more as time goes by. Political science is popular I know.

Pricing is fair wherever you live I think.. Univ of PHX is quite expensive from what I've heard.

Check it out.

It doesn't matter what you think. It matters what the HR department thinks. You guys/gals that are counting on a pilot shortage to make the 4yr degree moot are most likely going to be behind the power curve. I've been hearing about an impending pilot shortage for about 2 decades and my airline has about 1500 furloughees

This is the truth.

Is a degree in Psychology really that much better? I've heard of far too many people with a Psych. degree looking for jobs at McDonald's. If you're doing psychology as a career field, then you probably have a Ph.D hanging on the wall of your office. I don't think just a 4-year degree in it gets you much, but do correct me if I'm wrong.
