Want To Work For NASA

Society Business and Career
1

Are there any less-involving-math-careers at NASA? It’s my dream to work for NASA, but I just can’t find the right career. Apparently, every exciting career requires tons of math. Tell me some careers that will land me a good job at NASA or a similar and smaller agency, without having to deal with too much math. Here are a few careers I absolutely love (with too much math unfortunately): Aerospace/aeronautical engineering, Atmospheric sciences, Astronomy, geophysics, Meteorology, Aviation, astrophysics, and Oceanography.

It’s not that I don’t like math, but number crunching is the last thing I would want to do at work. A little bit of math doesn’t hurt…

What am I doing right now? pre-architecture :rolleyes:

P.S. I need quick answers, so don’t move this to what’s-the-name forum, please.

You can do biology studies and work on experiments being done over there. Last I checked, they were doing something weird with gravity and plants.

Not funny.. :disgust:

PCG- I have done a semester of pre-med and that was enough. Biology is not my thing! I am more inclined towards physics/aerospace. Besides, the fields of study you mentioned in the PM are by far too boring for me. Thanks for the PM though.

You are not helping!!!

sara- I had that coming, didn’t I? :hehe:

Sh3ry Yeah, that’s exactly what I imagine when I hear the word MATH.

Re: Want To Work For NASA

Now that I have decided what I want to do (aerospace engineering), I could use a little motivation!!!!

Anybody???

^Stay focused,be determined and study hard.

And if u ever feel like killing yourself, think of me. I have a very anti-suicidal effect on people. :blush:

Re: Want To Work For NASA

there is no doing physics without good math skills. aerospace engineering is applied science and math, and would involve even more number crunching.

on the positive side, after a couple of years of messing about with it, you will find math isnt all that bad. in fact, its beautiful.

why fixate on NASA as your goal already? find out what you like and make a career out of it.

^ perhaps she wants to meet E.T ?

Anyway Math, Physics and Engineering is not all about number crunching.

Re: Want To Work For NASA

Well... there are quite a few non-Science career options with NASA...

with your background in Architecture studies, and your aversion to quantitative work, why not explore something with the Earth-Science division at NASA - you can work with Earth Science technology equipment to create designs, illustrations and graphics with design tools etc.
