Which course to do at uni

Right now thinking of 3, civil engineering, global supply chain/logistics, and accountng and finance - which would be best choice, especially some op[inions would be appreciated if you study one of these, thanks

Hi! I think all three sound like great choices, all in demand and set to grow. What I would say is the more niche the better, especially if it is in demand. I would also say think about what suits your personality, and whether you can see yourself working in that type of role long term. Accounting is quite generic and something you can easily move into with either an engineering or supply chain degree afterwards. The other two seem more technical/specific.

I have previously worked at two global consulting firms who specialise in civil engineering/design engineering but who also had supply chain consulting teams. I found the supply chain team worked on really varied, interesting projects and got to travel a lot. They were really in demand and had loads of work on. I think that industry is set to grow massively given globalisation, migration, increasing appetite for consumerism etc.

Good luck choosing!
