Which degree should I study?
12
I have a deep interest in the study of evolution and studying how things are formed , evolve and destruct but it’s not as simple for me to decide to just choose a biological degree since yes I am interested in evolution on a biological level concerning humans , plants , interested in themes like genetics and variation but my interests also lay in trying to understand evolution from various other perspectives such as how human thought has evolved , how societies have evolved , how norms and traditions , technologies etc have evolved . Some have suggested the study of anthropology but I’m not sure whether that’s the one either . I don’t know whether it’s possible to combine all these theme into one as either it will be strictly science based or humanities based whereas I would like to study both
